Pilot Evaluation of an Continuous Contactless Vitals Parameter Monitoring System Dozee VS

Plain-language summary

The Dozee VS device developed by Turtle Shell Technologies Pvt. Ltd., is a contactless continuous vital parameters monitoring system. It is designed for continuous and contactless measurement of Heart Rate (HR) and Respiratory Rate (RR). The device uses the concept of ballistocardiography and deploys piezoelectric sensors to capture the micro-vibrations originating from cardiac contractions, upper respiratory tract activity and body movements. This data is then analyzed by a proprietary algorithm and the values of the vital parameters - Heart Rate (HR) and Respiratory Rate (RR) are generated. The captured vital parameters can be accessed remotely via a dashboard which can be accessed on any web browser and a smartphone application. The sensor sheet is placed below the mattress and captures data while the user is resting or sleeping and does not require a sensor to be fixed to the body. It consists of the following sub - units: Contactless sensor sheet, Dozee Pod with power cord, 5 Volt Universal Serial Bus (USB) Power Adapter, Health data compute server and Web Dashboard/Mobile App. This provides a more comfortable solution for long-term continuous patient monitoring. Continuous monitoring of people's vital signs, in particular Heart Rate (HR) and Respiratory Rate (RR), may provide a mechanism to alert doctors or nurses of clinical deterioration. Monitoring people's vital signs outside an ICU often relies on nursing staff conducting checks at set intervals. The device can reduce the workload for nursing staff in non-ICU wards.
