Safety and Performance Study of the MultiSense® Ambulatory Telemonitoring System for Non-critical Patient Management

Safety and Performance Study of the MultiSense® Ambulatory Telemonitoring System for Non-critical Patient Management

In this clinical investigation, the investigators will assess the safety, performances and clinical added value of the MultiSense® ambulatory telemonitoring solution in real-life situations.

The MultiSense® solution is a medical device for telemonitoring for in and outpatient use.

It includes 5 physiological data sensors and communicates via Bluetooth with a smartphone. The data is centralized in the web and a web application allows healthcare professionals to scrutinize patient's data.

Among its potential benefits, the MultiSense® solution offers continuous, non-invasive and wireless physiological data recording over 5 days whenever patient monitoring is needed. There is a special focus on the post-operative monitoring, especially during the initial convalescence phase outside the hospital. An automatic notification system can be set up by a healthcare professional to notify abnormal data and potential need for phone call and/or physical home intervention.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, the performance and added value of the MultiSense® solution in real-life situations. The study population includes 20 post-surgical patients having a genuine need for post-hospital monitoring and be likely to have variations in physiological variables monitored, without being in a critical condition. The patients included will be equipped with the MultiSense® solution prior to the hospital discharge. The device will be used for 6 days from the date of actual deployment.
