Isansys: wireless technology helps save children’s lives

Vital signs of seriously ill young patients at Birmingham Children’s Hospital are being monitored continuously in real time with wireless sensors developed by Abingdon business, Isansys The sensors include the Lifetouch, a small bandage-like strip that can be fixed to the patient. It is wireless and continuously transmits the child’s heart signs. It means the child does not need to be physically hooked up to a monitor and is free to play or be held by parents. The data is delivered to Isansys’s Patient Status Engine, from where it is sent to the analysis system and held as an electronic patient record. Critically, it can deliver an early warning sign of a child’s deterioration and allow doctors to intervene earlier than they might otherwise have been able to – potentially saving lives or shortening hospital stays. Wireless monitoring could have wide applications across the NHS. It could help to save money currently spent on expensive monitors and allow more patients to be treated at home. The large amounts of patient data it provides could help researchers to find new and better treatments for a wide variety of conditions.
