N2 - This paper provides preliminary results and a system description for an ongoing clinical study currently being carried out at the Mid-Western Regional Hospital, Nenagh, Ireland. The goal of the trial is to determine if wireless inertial measurement technology can be employed to identify patients at risk of death or imminent clinical deterioration. The system measures cumulative movement and provides a score that in turn is correlated with a number of vital sign measurements and clinical scoring systems. The goal of this work is to provide a robust early warning to clinical staff of clinical deterioration.
