Welch Allyn has partnered with other big names in vital signs monitoring to introduce the Connex Clinical Surveillance System, an integrated set of tools designed for watching patients in medical-surgical environments. The system is built around the Welch Allyn Connex Vital Signs Monitor, which is connected to a Masimo acoustic respiration cloth sensor that detects breathing, a Covidien MicrostreamCO2 monitoring device, and the EarlySense technology that detects the heart rate, breathing rate, and patient through a contact-free panel positioned under the mattress.
All the data from the monitoring systems is fed live into a unified display station as well as the hospital’s electronic medical record, and abnormal readings can be programmed to trigger alarms to warn clinical staff.
