Scaling Wireless Continuous Vital Sign Monitoring Across an 8-Hospital Health System: Digital Health Implementation Report

This initiative represents the first system-wide deployment of CVSM across a diverse, multihospital health system. Success was enabled by early strategic alignment, phased rollout, robust IT and monitoring infrastructure, and iterative optimization. The program demonstrates the feasibility of embedding CVSM into routine inpatient care to improve efficiency and patient experience. Transferable strategies, including phased rollouts, centralized monitoring, and structured change management, may inform other health systems pursuing digital VS redesign. Future work should rigorously evaluate impacts on patient outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and applicability to postacute and ambulatory care settings.

Abstract

This initiative represents the first system-wide deployment of CVSM across a diverse, multihospital health system. Success was enabled by early strategic alignment, phased rollout, robust IT and monitoring infrastructure, and iterative optimization. The program demonstrates the feasibility of embedding CVSM into routine inpatient care to improve efficiency and patient experience. Transferable strategies, including phased rollouts, centralized monitoring, and structured change management, may inform other health systems pursuing digital VS redesign. Future work should rigorously evaluate impacts on patient outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and applicability to postacute and ambulatory care settings.
