Data availability and usability of a remote device for vital sign monitoring on general wards and home: a single-center prospective, observational study

J Clin Monit ComputPublished Prospective observational study

Authors' conclusion

Data availability of the viQtor was high for pulse rate but limited for respiratory rate and SpO₂, compared to the ViSi Mobile.
