Hospitals Need to Get Plastered
Toumaz Technology, a London-based start-up, has developed an ultra low-power wireless body monitoring system known as ”digital plaster.” The bandaid-like device, which sticks to a patient’s chest, can monitor ECG, body temperature, respiration and physical activity.
The real significance of the device is that it can help hospitals “jump the curve” by allowing them to safely and effectively monitor the recovery of some patients as those patients mend in the comfort of their own home. This, in turn, could help hospitals save a great deal of money as well as improve quality by freeing up staff to serve those patients most in need of asistance.
