The role of the Corsano CardioWatch in continuous vital sign monitoring for early sepsis detection

Sepsis is a critical medical emergency frequently associated with significant organ failure and high mortality rates. Early detection is crucial, as delays in treatment substantially increase the risk of fatal outcomes with each passing hour. However, no specific molecular marker or definitive blood test for sepsis detection exists.

The objective of this study was to rigorously evaluate the clinical accuracy and reliability of a novel photoplethysmography-based wristband for measuring key vital parameters

The Potential Use and Value of a Wearable Monitoring Bracelet for Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmona...

The occurrence of exacerbations has major effects on the health of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Monitoring devices that measure (vital) parameters hold promise for timely identification and treatment of exacerbations. Stakeholders' perspectives on the use of monitoring devices are of importance for the successful development and implementation of a device.
