EarlySense's contact-free sensor monitors level of motion, enabling nurses and caregivers to be at the bedside before the patient has exited the bed.
Detection of earliest movements gives nurses and caregivers "the fastest way" to the patient's side, at any given time.
6 levels of bed exit sensitivity give ~2 minutes of extra notice.
Recognizes each person's unique cardiac and respiratory cycles and movements.
Shorter response times are directly correlated with a lower number of falls.
