This report demonstrates the technical feasibility and satisfactory clinical usability of the wearable in-ear cosinuss° Health system for continuous, mobile vital signs monitoring in hospitalized COVID-19 and cardiac surgery patients, while highlighting areas for ergonomic and connectivity improvements.
Continuous, mobile patient monitoring plays a critical role in healthcare, particularly for post-surgery, intermediate care in clinics. The implementation of vital signs monitoring technology enables healthcare professionals to triage patients effectively by maintaining real-time awareness of their health status and allowing for prompt intervention when necessary. This technology supports early mobilization and facilitates the detection of potential complications such as post-surgical sepsis. cosinuss° technology has been evaluated in various studies, in terms of its accuracy in capturing vital parameters and its usability, emphasizing its potential to enhance intermediate patient care and outcomes. This report outlines the design and implementation of cosinuss° Health patient monitoring solution for use in intermediate, postoperative clinic settings. It presents the results and insights from three recent, in-clinic applications, discussing both technical and practical aspects, clinical processes, and the reported satisfaction from both patients and medical caregivers. The findings highlight the promising potential of cosinuss° Health on improving patient monitoring and overall clinical outcomes.
