Remote patient monitoring and assisted living solutions extend healthcare services right into the patient’s home.

The rise of chronic diseases is putting additional pressure on an already strained global healthcare system. By extending clinical care right into the patient’s own four walls, remote health monitoring solutions are helping to increase capacity in hospitals while letting patients stay at home.

Assisted living solutions use sensing, wireless communication, and cloud-based platforms to help vulnerable elderly and disabled individuals prolong their autonomy or return home from the clinic. By triggering life-saving alarms to relatives or fist responders, these devices offer elderly individuals and those with special needs a “lifeline” they can rely on in an emergency.

Use cases

Fall detection systems

In the United States alone, over thirty million elderly people report falls, leading to over three million injuries, and more than thirty thousand deaths. Fall detection systems use wireless communication including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular technology to automatically alert emergency services in the event of fall.

Emergency call systems

Using emergency call systems deployed in elderly care centers or at home, vulnerable individuals including the elderly can increase their autonomy and gain peace of mind, knowing that caregivers are always on call in the event of an emergency.

Sleep apnea monitors

Connected sleep apnea monitors let patients diagnose from their own beds rather than requiring them to spend the night in a medical sleep lab. Directly transmitting data to healthcare professionals via the cellular network or a local assisted living gateway reduces the risk of errors and simplifies diagnosis.

Bedside respiratory devices

Bedside respiratory devices, also referred to as CPAP devices, assist patients with breathing disorders such as sleep apnea by maintaining a constant flow of air into their airways. Connected bedside respiratory devices give healthcare professionals access to the usage data, boosting compliance and improving quality of care.
