Houston Methodist implemented continuous vital sign monitoring (CVSM) across its 8-hospital system from 2022 to 2024, deploying FDA-cleared BioButton devices to roughly 2,700 non-ICU adult beds with full deployment between April 2023 and February 2024. The program achieved >95% device use, 100% nursing training completion, and centralized 24×7 monitoring that filtered approximately 50% of alerts, enabling longer manual check intervals and saving about four nursing hours per shift.
