Is contactless passive patient monitoring the answer to the nursing shortage? The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) reports a demand for more than 200,000 new RNs each year to meet healthcare needs and replace retiring nurses. This shortage, exacerbated by the aging population and increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, calls for innovative solutions to ensure continuous, high-quality patient care.

 

The Rise of Contactless Passive Patient Monitoring

One such innovation making significant strides is contactless patient monitoring. These systems offer a way to fill the gap left by the nursing shortage by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of patient vital signs without the need for constant physical presence. Among the leaders in this field is Neteera, whose HealthGate platform is setting new standards in patient care.

 

Introducing Neteera’s HealthGate

Neteera HealthGate is a cloud-based platform designed to store, analyze, and make accessible patient vital signs and biodata for approved care providers. This interactive gateway supports remote monitoring across various settings, including home care, long-term rehabilitation, nursing homes, and aging-in-place scenarios.


Key Features of Neteera HealthGate:

  1. Near Real-time and Remote Monitoring: Neteera's Nurses Station enables the monitoring of multiple patients simultaneously, displaying vital signs and alerting staff when parameters fall outside doctor-defined limits. This real-time data accessibility ensures timely intervention, improving patient care.

  2. Patient Onboarding and Data Viewing: The platform allows for seamless patient onboarding, with the flexibility to monitor the same individual through different Neteera devices in various locations. A hierarchical user system ensures appropriate access and control over patient data.

  3. Comprehensive Data Analysis: Clinicians can remotely view heart rate (HR) and respiration rate (RR) oscillations as trend graphs and numerical values. Additional parameters such as respiration amplitude (RA) and inspiratory/expiratory ratio (I/E) are also available, facilitating detailed trend analysis over time.

  4. Continuous and Spot Monitoring: The HealthGate supports both continuous near real-time monitoring and spot checks, offering median values over a 45-second period. This dual approach allows for flexible monitoring strategies tailored to individual patient needs.

  5. API Integration: The platform's ability to connect with third-party systems and other medical devices via API ensures interoperability and customization based on specific medical use cases.


Enhancing Decision-Making with Smart Data

Overall Neteera’s cloud-based infrastructure not only ensures data security and accessibility but also enhances decision-making by providing smart, actionable insights. This capability is particularly crucial in environments like nursing homes and long-term care facilities, where quick, informed decisions can significantly impact patient health.

 

By offering a comprehensive, scalable solution for remote patient monitoring, Neteera's HealthGate is poised to alleviate some of the pressures faced by healthcare providers amidst the ongoing nursing shortage. Its innovative approach to patient care ensures that vital signs are continuously monitored, critical changes are promptly addressed, and healthcare teams are better equipped to deliver high-quality care.

 

In a time where the healthcare system is under immense strain, Neteera's HealthGate represents a beacon of innovation and efficiency, bridging the gap between patient needs and available nursing resources.
