SOTERA WIRELESS ViSi MOBILE SYSTEM

The Sotera Wireless Vital Signs Mobile system continuously monitors patient vital signs, including pulse rate (PR), heart rate (HR), respiration rate (RR), NIBP, and pulse oximetry (SpO2), as well as level of motion on adult patients in inpatient lower-acuity care settings. Continuous noninvasive blood pressure (cNIBP) is achieved by taking a baseline measurement with a standard NIBP cuff and then using pulse arrival time to estimate changes from baseline. The system analyzes and interprets vital signs data to alert clinicians to emergent events like high HR or low SpO2. The system also displays trending data to help clinicians detect early signs of patient deterioration. 

This system offers optional 3- or 5-lead ECG for monitoring purposes (i.e., not diagnostic, and no arrhythmia detection). 



 Central workstation is available and allows control of system for up to 32 patients at a time. Just like the cetntral monitors in the ICU, it can used to:



- Admit and discharge patients
- View graphical and list trends for 3- or 5-lead ECG, SpO2, temperature, PR, and RR
- View real-time data, including visible and audible alerts and alarms
- Communicate to secondary alarm notification systems or middleware for clinician notification
- Send patient vitals data and alarms to patient electronic medical record (EMR) via an HL7 (Health    
  Level 7) interface.

Remote viewing screen is available for viewing of near-real-time patient data, trending information, and alerts/alarms through WLAN, etc.



The Sotera Wireless Vital Signs Mobile system is a good choice for low-acuity continuous vital signs monitoring applications on a medical-surgical floor. The system has simple patient setup. Trending information is potentially helpful to detect patient deterioration. 
The use of continuous noninvasive blood pressure (cNIBP) is impressive and potentially much more comfortable for the patient than periodic NIBP cuff inflation. Sotera provides the widest variety of alerts for emergent events and status changes. This system is not designed to provide trend alerts or early warning scoring. It is probably best suited to sick patients who need constant monitoring and alerting for emergent events. Battery life is short; two wrist units are required per bed for 24-hour coverage.

  1. Your good knowledge and kindness in playing with all the pieces were
    very useful. I don’t know what I would have done if I had not
    encountered such a step like this.
