System and method for patient monitoring based on condition and activity level

A patient monitoring system for determining an optimal monitoring transition of a patient, the system comprising:

• at least a first vital sign sensor configured to measure one or more vital signs of the patient according to a monitoring schedule and to generate vital sign sensor data;
• a patient monitor in communication with at least the first vital sign sensor, the patient monitor comprising a sensor interface configured to receive vital sign sensor data from one or more vital sign sensors;
• an activity monitoring apparatus configured to measure activity of the patient and generate patient activity metrics;
• and
• at least one processor configured to generate a recommendation to alter the monitoring schedule and/or switch to measuring one or more vital signs of the patient via at least a second vital sign sensor, wherein the recommendation is generated based on at least;
• (i) the vital sign sensor data from at least the first vital sign sensor, (ii) the one or more patient activity metrics measured over the period of time, and (iii) a clinical information of the patient.
