Hospital From Home

Continuous real-time vital sign data, regardless of patient location

The Patient Status Engine is the most comprehensive and simple to use platform for monitoring patients in hospital, in the clinic or at home.

Healthcare providers globally are beginning to shift patients towards homecare programmes in order to reduce costs and improve outcomes by avoiding the dangers associated with hospital admission. Not only does home based care offer greater mobility for patients but it also allows for community based early interventions to prevent readmissions.

With the PSE, healthcare professionals can receive complete and clinically accurate information about their patients’ health status directly from the patients' homes. By effectively extending critical care pathways outside the hospital, patients can remain under the direct care of their consulting physicians and specialised care teams. The real-time patient data and early warning alerts are delivered to central monitoring stations and personal mobile devices, and readily integrated with the provider's EMR system.

Case Study

Medical care at the hospital from the comfort of your own home

The Patient Status Engine (PSE) is the enabling technology for Zollikerberg Hospital’s ground-breaking project, 'Visit - Zollikerberg Hospital at Home', an initiative which is providing acutely ill patients with hospital-level care in the comfort of their own homes.

According to feedback, patients express high satisfaction, rating their experience at 96.5%. Additionally, an overwhelming 93.1% of patients indicate a preference for VISIT treatment over hospital-based care.

Case Study

Wireless monitoring of a cardiac surgery patient from home

Current hospital practice means patients need to remain in hospital post-surgery or return regularly after discharge for follow-up appointments. Mike Wilson was given the chance to try the Patient Status Engine after open heart surgery so he could return home and still be monitored by healthcare professionals. The data collected helped ensure he had more direct care at a time when he needed it most.

I've witnessed the ease and fidelity with which this equipment can be used in the home by parents with no specific medical expertise.”

Sleep occurs in a context with bedtime routines. Stripping that away and placing kids into a sleep lab for a polysomnography has implications for the quality of our data and the conclusions that we can draw from that data.
