The study is incomplete - there are *4* bands certified for use and this study only uses 2. If a test is going to be done at least do it properly. ;)

What the heck, Why not just use simple BlueTooth to track patients.
They probably don't wonder outside of range.
If they do go out of range, that should alert central desk to check that person more than once a day maybe.
