Abstract
The implementation of wireless continuous vital sign monitoring (CVSM) technologies changes daily care practices of healthcare professionals, which gives rise to unknown new roles and responsibilities. In this paper we present a study on how we combine the disciplines of medical informatics and ethics in the implementation of the Philips Healthdot, a smart patch for remote CVSM. The aim of this study is to investigate experiences and perspectives on the support levels and roles and responsibilities associated with the integration of smart patches, by conducting interviews with nurses. This interdisciplinary study gives insights into the technological, organizational, and ethical concerns surrounding the implementation of CVSM in healthcare. The findings and analytical approach may provide valuable insights for researching the appropriate implementation of digital health technologies.
