Study Notes

Remote Patient Monitoring

  • Remote patient monitoring enables patients to control their health with real-time patient-provider communication tools, streamlining clinician workflow.
  • It allows for remote monitoring of patients with chronic conditions, such as glucose levels, heart rate, and depression, improving patient outcomes.

IoT Devices in Healthcare

  • IoT devices, such as connected inhalers and connected contact lenses, reduce clinician workflow and ED utilization.
  • Ingestible sensors improve patient outcomes with complete hospital approach at home.
  • Robotic surgery and other IoT devices facilitate advanced biometric monitoring and personalized treatment.

Remote Patient Monitoring Device

  • A remote patient monitoring device collects health data and forwards it to a healthcare professional or patient application.
  • The device automatically collects health data, eliminating the need for physical presence at a healthcare facility.
  • It analyzes data to produce treatments and generate alerts.

Patient Connect Mobile App

  • Patient Connect Mobile App allows patients to view their health data and engage with healthcare providers.
  • It streamlines clinician workflow and enables real-time patient-provider communication.
  • The app facilitates advanced biometric monitoring and personalized treatment.

How Remote Patient Monitoring Works

  • Remote patient monitoring works by attaching probes to a patient's body, which transmit data to a mobile app or a data center.
  • The data is analyzed, and alerts are generated when necessary, enabling timely interventions.

Example: Telecare Remote Patient Monitoring System

  • Telecare system monitors patient vitals, such as heart rate and glucose levels.
  • The system uses a PC-303H All-in-One Health Monitor to automatically record and transmit data to a mobile app or data center.
  • The mobile app pushes recorded data to the Go Telecare Data Center, enabling real-time monitoring and alerts.

Hand Hygiene Monitoring

  • Hand hygiene monitoring reduces the risk of contagion and healthcare-associated infections.
  • IoT devices, such as TeleTracking Hand Hygiene Monitoring, detect hand hygiene compliance and remind staff to sanitize.
  • The system captures hand hygiene events and generates a hand hygiene index, promoting better hand hygiene practices.
