Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)
Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is a healthcare solution that allows healthcare providers to monitor a patient’s health outside of traditional clinical settings. Using digital technologies, RPM collects vital health data such as heart rate, blood pressure, glucose levels, oxygen saturation, and weight, and transmits it securely to healthcare providers in real-time.
RPM is particularly beneficial for managing chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. It allows healthcare providers to track patients’ health progress remotely, detect potential issues early, and intervene before problems escalate. Patients can use wearables, sensors, and mobile apps to track and report their health metrics, making healthcare more accessible and personalized.
RPM improves patient outcomes by enabling continuous care, reducing hospital readmissions, and empowering patients to take an active role in their health management. It also provides cost-effective solutions for both patients and healthcare systems by minimizing the need for frequent in-person visits.
