Socially Distanced Care: The Need for AI-Powered Patient Monitoring

To help negate the threat of infection and provide medical staff with accurate and reliable patient vital readings – both inside and outside of the care setting – hospitals and healthcare facilities have turned to advanced remote patient monitoring tools to track patient vitals from a safe distance.

The lack of actionable insight limits the ability of medical staff to apply the right care at the right time during ward overpopulation, leaving room for new protocols and technologies to assist with this process.

The inclusion of AI-powered patient analytics within remote patient monitoring systems addresses this need by stratifying continuous patient data so that it is actionable. With these added capabilities, providers can monitor thousands of patients at once and rely upon advanced systems to triage and direct patient care to those who need it most, maximizing hospital resources.
