Brief Summary
Is heart rate and respiratory rate measured continuously with a new wireless sensor better as compared to standard care, with manually measured spot checks by nurses on general wards? Does continuous monitoring detect more abnormal respiratory- and heart rate? Are abnormal values associated with increased lenght of stay?
