BioIntelliSense and care.ai have teamed up to combine their existing technologies to provide continuous monitoring from medical-grade wearables to improve clinical workflows in healthcare facilities.

BioIntelliSense’s BioButton device reduces repetitive nursing tasks such as taking vitals by passively capturing up to 1,440 clinically validated vital signs per day, including heart rate and respiratory rate at rest, skin temperature, activity levels, sleep, body positioning, and gait.

BioButton will analyze the data and send it to care.ai’s automated AI-enabled platform to alert healthcare staff of patient care needs.

The companies say that by combining the two technologies they can help facilities deal with staff shortages. They plan to release the integrated solution early in 2023.
