The primary aim of the current study is to assess the effect of continuous wireless vital signs monitoring with generation of real-time alerts compared to blinded monitoring without alerts on the cumulative duration of any severely deviating vital signs in patients admitted to general hospital wards with acute medical conditions. Patients admitted with medical conditions represents a large and heterogenous group occupying a substantial part of the total in-patient capacity in the Danish hospitals today. The hypothesize is that continuous vital signs monitoring, and real-time alerts will reduce the cumulative duration of severely deviating vital signs.
