How Remote Patient Monitoring is Transforming Healthcare www.ipatientcare.com
Since the last decade, Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)
has experienced a trail run, but decade’s worth of research made this emerging technology enter the implementation
phase in the year 2020 Currently 88 % of hospitals are investing or considering to invest in remote patient monitoring systems,
According to Consumer Technology Association (CTA), 68 percent of healthcare organizations strongly wish to use remote patient monitoring solutions to help providers
manage the health of high-risk patients
How Remote Patient Monitoring Helps 1 Ease the burden on providers and patients
2 Gives patients much greater involvement in the management of their health
3 Eliminates nursing and hospitalization costs
4 Increase access to care for patients
How remote patient monitoring system monitors patient health outside of a traditional clinical setting
It collects biometric data
Analyzes and
Transmits it to the

Remote Patient Monitoring with Wearables & Mobile Devices Wearable Fitness Tracker: The wristbands equipped with sensors to keep track of the user’s physical activity and heart rate. Having fitness and health data transferred from a wearable fitness tracker directly to the patient’s health record helps physicians:
Better monitor patients remotely
Expand the reach of patient care to rural areas
Improve the amount of data physicians receive
Smart health watch: Smart-watch once only used to count steps and tell time, but now it has transformed into an advanced healthcare tool. It now also enables users to:
Read notifications
Send simple
Monitor heart rate
messages and make
count
phone calls
Health tracking
Sleep tracking
Activity tracking and many more
Wearable ECG Monitor: The ECG monitor is able to measure: An electrocardiogram and transmit the readings to the healthcare provider
Integrate the data into the patient’s records. Tracks atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat), distance, and elevation which further helps in preventive care.
Wearable Blood Pressure Monitor: BP Monitor can measure blood pressure and daily activity – like Steps taken Distance traveled Calories burned It also has the ability to advise how personal habits affect blood pressure
Patch- Biosensors: Wearable biosensor is a self-adhesive patch, that Collects data on movement, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature Streams data to the patient’s smartphone
Transmits it to the healthcare provider via a suitable platform
Future trends for Remote Patient Monitoring Technology Study shows that patients
