New wireless system aims to spot hospital patients getting worse faster
NCT ID NCT07451249
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how hospitals in Europe currently monitor patients and tests a new wireless system called WARD-CSS. The system continuously tracks breathing and heart signals to catch signs of decline earlier. About 1,240 adults staying in the hospital for at least two days will take part. The goal is to see if the system is easy to use and helps doctors and nurses respond faster.
