EarlySense

Ramat Gan, Israel Healthcare Acquired

EarlySense was an Israeli medical device company that developed contact-free continuous patient monitoring technology. Its piezoelectric sensor, placed under a hospital mattress, measured heart rate, respiratory rate, and motion more than 100 times per minute without touching the patient. The system was deployed in acute, post-acute, and home-care settings to detect early signs of deterioration such as code blue events, falls, pressure ulcers, and avoidable ICU transfers. EarlySense partnered with Hill-Rom in 2018 to integrate the technology into Centrella Smart+ hospital beds and sold the underlying contact-free continuous monitoring (CFCM) technology to Hillrom in February 2021 for approximately $30 million. The company entered receivership in 2022 after defaulting on a Kreos Capital loan, and its remaining home-use assets were sold to TytoCare in November 2022 for roughly $2 million, effectively winding down operations.
