Use Cases

COPD

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs. Patients have less oxygen and breathing is more difficult. This gives less energy. Normal things like climbing stairs, running errands, or getting dressed can be tricky. While COPD is incurable, it is preventable and treatable. With proper management, most people with COPD can achieve good symptom control and quality of life, as well as reduced risk of other associated conditions. Early detection of COPD exacerbations by monitoring patients with CardioWatch 287 can enable treatment sooner, alleviating their symptoms and likely improving patient outcomes. Corsano is currently running a COPD Trial in collaboration with the National eHealth Living Lab (NeLL).

Sepsis Detection & Treatment

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition characterized by a dysregulated immune response to infection, leading to organ dysfunction. It is considered a global health concern and a leading cause of death worldwide. Early detection and timely treatment are crucial for improving patient outcomes.

To improve the outcome and to relieve stationary care, Corsano participated in the price winning smart solution for early detection in patients at risk for sepsis at the normal ward / low care units.  The smart system involves the continuous monitoring of vital signs with CardioWatch 287-2 and the use of advanced algorithms and data analysis to identify early signs of sepsis. By continuously monitoring patients and analyzing relevant data, the system alerts healthcare providers to potential cases of sepsis, enabling early intervention.

Mental Health

Corsano and Philips are planning to run pilots at Care Organizations monitoring patients and staff with CardioWatch 287-2. Healthcare work has been associated with a considerable level of stress and anxiety leading to exhaustion, difficult triage decisions, separation from families, stigma, fear of being infected, fear of infecting their beloved ones, and pain of losing patients and colleagues. CardioWatch 287-2’s accompanying application shows Healthcare workers their stress level up to one hour in advance. This enables them to adjust.
