Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Falls are one of the most common NHS adverse events. With an increasing number of frail elderly patients being admitted this risk is likely to increase. In order to be able to assist patients with bed exit in a timely manner monitoring might be of help. In ZeroFall we will test the reliability of monitoring devices to notify care givers if a patient is attempting to exit the bed.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In ZeroFall we intend to observe patients on risk of fall with two different devices during their hospital stay: The information from a no-touch optical sensing device that analyses movement and an under the mattress sensor that has already been used in a previous study at Bangor. Both are compatible with an existing monitoring system by Philips Healthcare and CE marked.

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

The study has several distinct phases:

* Silent Phase: The devices run in the background, activity is blinded for clinicians, settings are optimized by the research team.
* Run-In Phase: Bed exit notifications are turned on, notifications will be configurable for acceptability by clinical teams. Data extraction and data evaluation will be tested.
* Phase I: Data collection of bed exit data of sensors as well as data related to falls
* Phase II: Data collection of bed exit data with optimization of predictive algorithms
* Phase III: Data collection for validation using predictive data for early notification
