Stopped: Study was terminated after 6 months due to recruitment and data collection challenges.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether supplemental camera observation directly linked to the nurse's phone will improve patient safety for acute medical care patients', who are restless, confused or in risk of development of acute delirium. The setting is an acute medical care ward. The expected result is a reduced incidence of patients with delirious condition, patients who fall or unintentionally remove intravenous access or catheters. Thus, higher patient safety and more efficient patient trajectories are expected, as well as a reduced need for treatment, care and rehabilitation after discharge.
