Mass. Governor Patrick Touts MetroWest Medical Center Use of EarlySense

Technology aimed at alerting doctors when the condition of their patients deteriorates is at the center of MetroWest Medical Center’s new patient safety and quality care initiative, which Gov. Deval Patrick will help tout this afternoon in Framingham.

The hospital initiative, using technology developed by EarlySense Ltd., will be the focus of a product demonstration, followed by a symposium on advances in patient safety at acute care hospitals and long-term care facilities. Organizers say there have been 50 cases documented in the past year in which alerts provided by the EarlySense system helped nurses and doctors save the lives of their patients. EarlySense recently announced its decision to locate its headquarters in Massachusetts.
