Yongin Severance Hospital Introduces Real-Time Patient Monitoring Service

Maximizing efficiency with BLE bed displays used as IoMT gateways for simplified installation and integrated monitoring



Seoul – July 15, 2025 –



A real-time patient monitoring service that allows tracking patients’ locations and vital signs at the bedside level has been officially introduced at Yongin Severance Hospital.

 

People and Technology (CEO: Hong Seong-pyo), a digital healthcare solution provider, announced on the 15th that it has successfully implemented its real-time patient monitoring system at Yongin Severance Hospital, based on its IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) platform IndoorPlus+ SmartCare, and that the system is now in official operation.

 

 

This newly introduced system can detect signs of patient deterioration in real time at the bedside and immediately alert the medical staff. Notably, it draws attention from the medical community for utilizing existing bedside information displays as BLE gateways, eliminating the need for additional infrastructure installation.

 


 

 

■ Structural Efficiency Using Existing Infrastructure – Bedside Display as IoMT Gateway



The key feature of this deployment is that it enables BLE signal collection at the bedside without installing separate BLE scanners.

Yongin Severance Hospital was already operating bedside information displays in its wards. This project repurposed the built-in BLE modules in these displays as IoMT gateways, enabling real-time monitoring.

 

Whereas conventional RTLS systems typically require separate BLE scanners (V3) in the wards to collect patient location data, this case reuses existing infrastructure, earning high praise for simplified installation, improved system integration, and efficient maintenance.



■ Real-Time Integrated Monitoring of Location and Vitals



Inpatients wear a wearable biometric device called HiCardi, which measures key vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and skin temperature. These measurements are automatically transmitted through the BLE module of the bedside display terminal.

The data is then integrated with the patient’s location data into the IndoorPlus+ SmartCare platform and delivered in a visual format to medical staff via the monitoring system, ward nurse stations, and EMR systems.

This setup allows for a swift response to changes in the patient's condition, with automatic alerts triggered by abnormal vital signs and comprehensive bedside-level management enabled.



■ Expected Benefits



With the introduction of this system, the hospital expects the following benefits:

  • Simplified installation and reduced setup costs by utilizing existing equipment

  • Enhanced responsiveness of medical staff through real-time bedside monitoring of vital signs and location

  • Improved patient safety through early detection of abnormal signs

  • Optimized workflow through integration with nurse stations and EMR systems

  • Acquisition of real-time ward operation indicators based on data



■ Flexible Design Optimized for Hospital Environments
 

 

A representative from People and Technology stated : “This deployment demonstrates the possibility of reliably implementing real-time monitoring systems by actively utilizing existing hospital equipment, even in diverse infrastructure environments,” and added: “Because hospitals can choose between BLE scanner (V3)-based or bedside display-based architectures depending on their conditions, this model offers both flexibility and effectiveness, making it a recognized smart hospital solution.”

 

 

Meanwhile, People and Technology’s IndoorPlus+ SmartCare platform-based real-time patient monitoring service is already being used at various medical institutions, including the National Cancer Center and Incheon-Bucheon Sejong Hospital. It is gaining attention as a core infrastructure technology for hospital digital transformation and smart healthcare advancement.
