Isansys Lifecare, a company that creates real-time patient data capture and analysis systems, has announced that its Patient Status Engine (PSE) platforms have been shipped globally.
Demand for real-time continuous data, including personal health information, early warning scores and alerting when a patient’s condition is deteriorating, is driving the market for complete monitoring systems in hospital and home care settings globally, according to Isansys.
The PSE is a CE-marked platform that uses wireless wearable sensors to continuously and wirelessly capture, collect, store and interpret vital sign and other physiological data.
The system analyses ECGs to provide continuous heart rate, respiration rate, heart rate variability and other cardiac parameters such as arrhythmias and uses other sensors for continuous oxygen saturation, PPG, blood pressure and temperature.
This data is analysed and simplified to allow doctors and nurses to monitor patients more efficiently and according to Isansys, to assist in early detection of patient deterioration.
Line Pedersen, who is leading the work at Sorlandet Hospital Group, Norway where Isansys has just installed a number of systems, said: “Through the use of the Isansys patient monitoring equipment across our hospital, I believe we can both reduce mortality and save money.”
Keith Errey, CEO of Isansys, said: “We are delighted to be deploying our systems to hospital and healthcare providers globally and that the value of this type of technology is now being recognised by people all around the world – the demand has completely surpassed our expectations.
“The PSE is an ideal match for a suite of healthcare solutions and will allow each of these countries to harness a wealth of new opportunities for improved clinical outcomes, reduced overall cost and increased revenues.
“Automatic data capture addresses a whole range of issues relating to the pressures on nurses and greatly improves in-ward efficiencies compared with manual methods, including manual electronic observation systems”
Installation of Isansys’ PSE, includes integration with the provider’s IT system, has been designed to be simple and fast, usually completed within one day, thus allowing providers to deploy the system almost immediately and start collecting patient data, according to Isansys.
Rebecca Weir, cofounder and director of business development at Isansys, said: “We developed the PSE over the last six years by working closely with clinicians and nurses and listening to their issues and needs.
“It is now really encouraging to see how much of a demand there is for the system, as clinicians and providers in many countries are recognising that these new data driven methods are now available for better clinical practice, improved patient care and efficiency gains across the whole healthcare delivery spectrum.”
