First Response Monitor Tracks Heart, Respiratory Rates In Multiple Trauma Victims, Cambridge Design Partnership Study

The Cambridge Design Partnership, an industrial design consulting firm out of Cambridge, UK, has created a vital signs monitor designed to help first responders to manage multiple victims during emergency situations. The First Response Monitor clips onto the nose and immediately begins monitoring the heart and respiratory rate of the person wearing it. The readings can be transmitted in real-time to a paired smartphone or tablet via the latest Bluetooth low energy wireless standard. EMTs or battlefield medics can quickly snap the devices on all the trauma victims in their care and begin monitoring their vitals en masse.
