The Cloud DX Connected Health platform combines the best of telemedicine with remote vitals monitoring, patient surveys and smart notifications. It allows physicians, clinicians and care teams to virtually care for patients from hospital to home by automating monitoring of patient vitals including blood pressure, pulse rate, spO2, receive notifications should symptoms change, schedule a telehealth conference and implement pre-approved ‘action plans’ to help patients and their families proactively respond to changes in condition.

What are the key attributes that helped your company to overcome the challenges?

Strong and accomplished leadership team Innovative product pipeline (vital sign detection, wearable monitors, cough analysis, medication detection, augmented reality) FDA and Health Canada approved products in market Strong alliances with healthcare providers, payers, advisors, and government organizations What is the current scenario of Telehealth Solutions Providers Segment, from your point of view?

The COVID-19 global pandemic has dramatically accelerated the industry’s shift to telehealth and virtual care.

Hospitals in virus hot-spot areas are stressed beyond capacity frontline healthcare workers are dying in unacceptable numbers.

Management of chronic illnesses accounted for more than 75% of worldwide healthcare costs in 2016, with heart disease (CHF), stroke and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) named the top 3 global causes of mortality by the World Health Organization 1 In 2016, CHF and COPD combined claimed 12.5 million lives around the world, or 22% of all deaths that year.

These illnesses cost more, and take more lives, than all cancers put together. Chronically ill individuals are among the most vulnerable populations to the COVID-19 virus.

The answer is virtual care – keep patients away from hospitals. According to a recent report by Deloitte: Fifty percent of executives believe at least a quarter of all outpatient care, preventive care, long-term care, and well-being services would move to virtual delivery by 2040.

Three out of four executives predict that industrywide investments in virtual health would be significantly higher (more than 25 percent) over the next decade than today.

94% expect that next-generation data and interoperability solutions will enable widespread data sharing; and 88 percent of executives predicted wearable devices will be integrated with care delivery, resulting in a more tailored, personalized virtual health experience for consumers.

About two-thirds of surveyed executives thought that removing regulatory and payment barriers would accelerate virtual health adoption.

Cloud DX Connected Health Kits, remote patient monitoring and doctor-approved Action Plans allow patients and clinicians to intervene early to avoid exacerbations due to COPD and CHF – improving outcomes for these patients. Our platform has been clinically proven to reduce hospitalizations due to COPD exacerbation by 80%, and emergency room visits by 36%.

We believe that the use of virtual care solutions encompassing remote patient monitoring and telehealth in the management of COVID-19+ve patient, post-surgical patients and management can substantially reduce hospital re-admission numbers, improve hospitals capacity to do more elective and urgent surgeries, improve outcomes for the chronically ill, and reduce the spread of COVID-19 by keeping people out of the hospital.

Healthcare provider clients of the Cloud DX Connected Health platform are realizing all the benefits outlined above.
