KOSMOS Smart Monitoring System
Helping you improve patient safety.
Following extensive research with many of our behavioral health partners, the next generation patient monitoring software has been developed to allow clinical teams to fully monitor ligature alarms and record an audit trail of patient activity and staff observations.
- Early warning indicators for proactive intervention
- Room activity indicators to aid staff changeovers
- Live status monitoring of all ligature alarmed doorsets across ward
- Complete audit trail of alarm activations, alarm tests, observations and more
- Secure data for future review and analysis via the KOSMOS Cloud
- User friendly interface with bespoke ward floorplans
- Seamless integration with Kingsway ligature monitors and K-Alert Annunciation System
- Alarm testing reminders
In challenging mental health environments it is critical staff are aware of door ligature incidents. The KOSMOS Smart Monitoring System ensures this by providing the next level of ligature alarm technology to enable swift clinical response.
KOSMOS provides invaluable data for future review by recording a complete audit trail of patient activity, staff observations and alarm activations. This data can help management teams review patient care quality and highlight key trends on wards, such as service users leaving their rooms at specific times during the night or remaining in their room more than usual.

Key features
Early warnings & UI
Early-warning indicators & room activity
KOSMOS continuously analyses live data streams to help staff identify potential signs of patient distress. Factors such as door tampering and frequent opening and closing of the door or vision panel are analysed on a room-by-room basis and presented to staff via a live, visual representation of room activity.
This feature can help staff identify early-warning indicators that an incident may be about to occur, allowing for proactive intervention before a ligature attempt takes place. Further, the room activity display can assist during staff changeover, providing a clear and visual representation of ward activity to new staff on the ward.
Alarm triggering and door isolation
The KOSMOS interface provides live status monitoring for each ligature alarmed doorset within the ward. If a ligature is detected, the KOSMOS interface will display the exact location of the ligature incident and trigger an audible and visual alert to allow for quick clinical response. If a ligature alarmed door has been isolated, e.g. for door maintenance purposes or if a service user has been placed under constant observation, the KOSMOS software will clearly indicate the door alarm is not being monitored. Ward staff can then reactivate the status monitoring when intended.
User friendly interface and bespoke floorplan
The KOSMOS software provides clinical teams with a visual representation of the ward via a bespoke floorplan with a live monitoring interface that clearly displays the alarm status of each ligature alarmed door within the ward.
Audit trail
Complete audit trail
KOSMOS logs a full audit trail of door and vision panel activity, providing clinical teams with valuable data for future review to help highlight potential problem areas.
Advanced reporting and analysis
KOSMOS’ complete audit trail allows for improved reporting and analysis, providing a timestamped history of alarm activations along with door openings and vision panel activations that can help indicate when observations took place. This data, remotely accessible via the KOSMOS Cloud, can assist management teams in ensuring and documenting due diligence, as well as highlighting potential areas for concern that need to be addressed.
Remotely accessible, secure data via the KOSMOS Cloud
The complete audit trail of data is uploaded daily to the KOSMOS Cloud; a secure and remotely accessible online portal in which the Trust or facility can review, filter and export data.
Fault detection and testing reminders
With life-critical systems it is vital that any faults are promptly detected and rectified. KOSMOS monitors its own network and can detect faults within the system, whilst built-in reminders let staff know when to test the alarmed doors within the ward.
