Remote Patient Monitoring
Michigan RPM Providers
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) falls under homecare telehealth, enabling patients to utilize mobile wireless medical devices and technology to gather their health data. This patient-generated health data (PGHD) includes vital signs, weight, blood pressure, and heart rate, which is then transmitted to healthcare professionals. The data is sent to the physician’s office using specialized telehealth computer systems or software applications that can be installed on computers, smartphones, or tablets.
- Vital Sign Monitoring: Remote monitoring of vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation levels.
- Symptom Tracking: Monitoring and tracking of symptoms related to chronic conditions or post-treatment recovery.
- Medication Adherence: Monitoring and encouraging adherence to medication schedules through reminders and tracking.
- At-home Tests: These test keep substance abuse patients accountable for and on track with their goals.
- Dietary Tracking: Caloric intake or diet logging programs.
Types of Remote Patient Monitoring
Blood pressure cuff
The Remote Blood Pressure Monitoring Cuff enables patients to take their readings & instantly transmit the data to a secure portal, where healthcare providers can review it in real-time.
Blood Sugar glucometer
The RPM program wirelessly sends data from a patient’s glucose monitoring device directly to their health file for virtual review and monitoring by their physician and our case managment team.
pulse oximeter
A pulse oximeter is a compact device that measures the oxygen levels in your blood. It can detect subtle changes in the flow of oxygen to the extremities, such as the arms & legs, farthest from the heart.
Weight & BMI Monitor
Remote weight & BMI monitoring measures body weight using digital scales. The measurement is then transmitted to the patient’s physician, and to our team to track data.
