Sotera Wireless introduces the ViSi Mobile System, a platform for comprehensive vital signs monitoring that is designed to keep clinicians connected to their patients, whether in or out of bed, or while in transport – “monitoring in motion.”Featuring comfortable body-worn sensors that allow for freedom of movement, the system enables highly accurate, continuous monitoring of all vital signs.
The ViSi Mobile System is able to measure and display all core vital signs (Blood Pressure, Heart Rate / Pulse Rate, 3-lead or 5-lead ECG, SpO2, Respiration Rate, Skin Temperature) with monitoring accuracy and resolution, typically found in ICUs. In addition to the color touchscreen display on the patient-worn device, desktop PCs, tablet PCs and other mobile platforms can be utilized as remote viewing and notification devices. ViSi Mobile is able to wirelessly transmit data, leveraging existing hospital WiFi infrastructure, and is designed to provide information output in electronic form (i.e. EMR connectivity) as well as print-outs. Going forward, the ViSi Mobile System will also include Sotera’s patented cuffless non-invasive blood pressure (cNIBP) on a beat-to-beat basis, as well as patient posture / activity as a “new vital sign.”
