Continuous vital sign monitoring may potentially be improved through the use of wearable monitors linked wirelessly to hospital electronic patient records. By improving early detection of physiological deterioration this approach may save lives. ⋯ Continuous monitoring of patient vital signs using wearable monitoring technology linked wirelessly to hospital systems was associated with a reduction in unplanned ICU admissions and rapid response team calls. Further research is necessary to confirm the impact of this approach on patient survival.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Renal function during sevoflurane or total intravenous propofol anaesthesia a single-centre parallel randomised controlled study.
The choice of anaesthetic may influence regulation of renal perfusion and function. We investigated renal function in patients anaesthetised with propofol or sevoflurane before surgery and postoperatively. ⋯ EudraCT: 2017-001646-10; Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT0333680.
