FDA has cleared a GE HealthCare 510(k) for its Portrait Mobile wireless and wearable monitoring device, which GE says allows real-time continuous monitoring with a personalized view of the patient’s vitals while keeping patients mobile during critical recovery periods. “Continuously monitoring patients and having a real time view of data can help clinicians recognize deterioration earlier than traditional spot check methods, which typically occur only every 4-6 hours,” the company says. Monitoring is achieved through the device’s wireless patient-worn sensors combined with a smart phone-sized monitor that eliminates traditional tethers.

“The system’s dual-vector respiration rate measurement technology leverages an innovative algorithm designed for mobile patients, better capturing continuous respiratory rate through optimized electrode placement even with changing breathing patterns,” GE says. “Many potentially serious episodes of instability are missed with intermittent vital sign assessments… The uninterrupted flow of data and continuous measurement of vital signs, such as respiration rate, oxygen saturation and pulse rate, can help healthcare providers detect patient decline as it is happening, enabling timely intervention before a patient deteriorates.”
