Coin sticker, continuous
A coin-sized adhesive device that continuously tracks temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate and more for remote and in-hospital patient monitoring — FDA-cleared and validated for early deterioration detection, but designed around clinician dashboards and EMR integration rather than patient data access.
What it measures
Continuous skin temperature, resting heart rate, respiratory rate, body position, activity and sleep state, streamed to the BioDashboard and EMRs.
Regulatory status
FDA-cleared — the rechargeable BioButton multi-patient wearable and BioDashboard system (Oct 2024) for continuous monitoring; earlier disposable 90-day version also cleared.
Validation & accuracy
A published observational study (Journal of Clinical Medicine) demonstrated earlier detection of patient deterioration; deployed across med-surg units and hospital-at-home.
Data control & export
Raw data: no — data flows to the clinician BioDashboard and EMRs; patients do not get direct raw access. API: restricted — EMR/third-party integration for health systems.
Wearability & battery
A small coin-sized adhesive sticker worn on the chest; continuous wear for days to weeks, comfortable and unobtrusive.
Cost & access
Sold to health systems / RPM programs rather than consumers; cost via the provider.
Who it serves
Hospitals and remote-monitoring programs tracking patients continuously; not a consumer-owned device.
Who is left out or burdened
Patient is the monitored subject — no direct data access; obtained through a health system, not retail.
✓ Strengths
- FDA-cleared continuous multi-vital monitoring
- Validated for earlier detection of deterioration
- Coin-sized, comfortable, days-to-weeks wear
- EMR / health-system integration
✕ Weaknesses
- Patient gets no direct data access
- Sold to health systems, not consumers
- Clinician-dashboard-centric
- Not a retail/own-it device
78
Why this clinical score. An FDA-cleared, validated continuous multi-vital monitor used in real care pathways — high on the clinical axis; below dedicated cardiac/CGM monitors as it is general vitals RPM.
30
Why this empowerment score. Clinician/hospital-facing by design, with EMR data flow and no direct patient access — low on empowerment.
52
Why this everyday score. Comfortable and unobtrusive for continuous wear, but a single-purpose RPM sticker obtained through a provider.
