PATIENT MONITORING SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to a patient monitoring system, a patient monitoring method, and a computer program. In order to improve the monitoring of patients, particularly for cardiac monitoring and weight monitoring, a patient monitoring system (1) is provided that comprises a number of force sensors (2) associated with a patient's bed (3), the force sensors (2) being adapted for generating first signals corresponding to a first force component and second signals corresponding to a second force component, the second force component not running parallel to the first force component, which system further comprises an analyzing module (4) adapted for deriving from said signals data indicative of the patient's condition.
