A major challenge in continuous care is the adoption and retention of new technologies. Introducing atechnology solution that requires no change in behaviour of the patient or caretaker maximizes the likelihood ofadoption and retention, and unlocks the potential of technological improvements to increase the quality ofpatient care. Studio 1 Labs is a Canadian technology company that has developed an intelligent bed sheet withfabric sensor technology for continuous monitoring of physiological information such as heart rate andrespiratory rate. This monitoring is completely non-invasive and involves no hassle for the patient as it enablesthe detection of clinical endpoints without requiring any attachments to the body. The potential for adoption ofthis technology is high, as it simply involves replacing existing bed sheets with the intelligent bed sheets, andhas the potential to reduce the costs of continuous monitoring. The purpose of this project is to design andimplement improved electronics and signal processing systems to enable more widespread deployment of theintelligent bed sheet.

持续护理的一个主要挑战是采用和保留新技术。引入不需要改变患者或护理人员行为的技术解决方案，可以最大限度地提高采用和保留的可能性，并释放技术改进的潜力，从而提高患者护理的质量。Studio 1 Labs是一家加拿大科技公司，该公司开发了一种带有织物传感器技术的智能床单，可以连续监测心率和呼吸率等生理信息。这种监测完全是非侵入性的，对患者来说没有麻烦，因为它可以检测临床终点，而不需要任何附着在身体上。采用这项技术的潜力很大，因为它只需要用智能床单取代现有的床单，并且有可能降低持续监测的成本。该项目的目的是设计和实施改进的电子和信号处理系统，使智能床单能够更广泛地部署。
