The DRK Kreisverband Hamburg Altona und Mitte e.V. used the mobile patient monitoring system from cosinuss\u00b0 during the Haspa Marathon Hamburg 2024.<\/h2><\/div>

Over 15,000 runners, around 500 first aid missions – in a joint pilot project, the Hamburg Altona and Mitte district association of the German Red Cross (DRK) used cosinuss\u00b0 patient monitoring technology to monitor the vital signs of participants in the Haspa Marathon Hamburg 2024 during medical care. Most of the marathon runners were struggling with dehydration, severe circulatory problems, abrasions or sprains. In addition to the German Red Cross, helpers from Johanniter-Unfall-Hilfe and Malteser-Hilfsdienst were also present.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The DRK helpers used the c-med\u00b0 alpha<\/a> in-ear sensor and the cosinuss\u00b0 Health app<\/a> during their missions. The c-med\u00b0 alpha is a small and lightweight multi-parameter sensor. It not only measures the patient’s oxygen saturation<\/a>, pulse rate<\/a> and body temperature<\/a>, but also provides important additional information such as the perfusion and quality index. The data was transmitted to the emergency services’ tablet via Bluetooth. Thanks to the continuously visible PPG signal in the cosinuss\u00b0 Health app, the rescuers were able to monitor their patients precisely.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Simple and reliable application<\/h2><\/div>

The first aiders used the cosinuss\u00b0 patient monitor in the care and intensive care area of the Hamburg Marathon Medical Center. This also contained a standard patient monitoring device. The values measured with the cosinuss\u00b0 system could therefore be compared with the reference device. The feedback was very positive: \u201cThe cosinuss\u00b0 solution with the in-ear sensors and the app was great to use. All the helpers were thoroughly impressed!\u201d said a delighted Jannis Klengel, Coordinator Rescue Service Northern Germany at ADAC Luftrettung as well as District Standby Manager and volunteer helper at the German Red Cross.<\/p>\n<\/div>

In addition to the positive evaluation of the cosinuss\u00b0 system, suggestions for enhancements to the app were also made. A valuable further development for such a scenario – the monitoring of several patients simultaneously – is already under development. Future projects with the DRK Kreisverband Hamburg Altona und Mitte e.V. are also being planned.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
