A Wireless Continuous Monitoring System for Vital Signs

Abstract Continuous vital sign monitoring is a widely used clinical diagnostic and treatment method. Traditional vital sign monitoring methods often confine the patient's mobility and pose a higher risk of infection. Some studies have investigated wireless monitoring devices to address these issues, but most of these devices only provide single-module functionality for electrocardiogram, heart rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, blood pressure, and respiratory rate. In this article, we propose a wireless vital sign monitoring system to overcome these limitations. The system comprises of mobile monitoring devices, bedside relay screens, and a multi-scenario vital sign collaboration platform that can collect all the aforementioned physiological indicators. Furthermore, the data collected by these devices were compared and validated against monitoring devices that adhere to China Food and Drug Administration(CFDA) standards. The results demonstrate a close alignment of the data obtained from our system to that obtained from standard equipment, which has also received recognition from medical practitioners. Additionally, by leveraging medical Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) technology, this system can establish a comprehensive vital sign database, paving the way for the development of innovative clinical diagnosis and treatment models in the future.
