Abstract

<p>A patient monitor is a medical device that allows the observation of condition or an acute change in vital signs. However, as the number of alarms increases, there have been cases where alarms are dismissed or ignored. Meanwhile, web cameras have been used to observe elderly individuals who live alone and patients with dementia. However, no current patient monitoring systems use real time patient imaging. The aim of this study is to develop a monitoring system to obtain the alarm information from medical devices and patient image at bedside on smartphones. We assessed its operation by alarms and abnormal ECG’s generated by use of a Human Patient Simulator. Our system successfully received and displayed the device ID, HR, SpO2, different 13 potential alarms from the patient monitor and captures the patient image in a simulated environment in real time. Since our system was able to display the patient image and the user could know the reason why the alarm had occurred, we believe that our system is capable of complementing existing alarm systems.</p>
