Enhance Patient Care with Advanced Acoustic Monitoring Technology

In healthcare, acoustic monitoring systems have been used for years to monitor patients. Traditional acoustic monitoring systems generate alerts based on either a volume threshold, which is considered first-generation technology, or a volume-over-time threshold, which is second-generation technology. Sound Intelligence has developed its Acoustic Monitoring system, a third-generation monitoring solution. This patented technology is unique in its ability to differentiate sounds. Noises designated as irrelevant can be filtered out or shown with a lower priority. The system can also be set up to alert staff to specific sounds which may cause or indicate patient distress.

Acoustic Monitoring by Sound Intelligence distinguishes which sounds warrant attention and which ones do not. This patented, state-of-the-art technology filters out irrelevant noises, reducing false alarms and improving operational efficiency. The Acoustic Monitoring System can also be set up to alert staff to specific sounds that indicate resident distress. The system adds value to night care staff, tele-sitting solutions, and assists with virtual rounds. Essentially reducing unnecessary steps and the risk of missing incidents between in-room checks.

Acoustic Monitoring benefits include:
