  Patient management is an integral aspect of the successful running of healthcare units. The trend of managing administrative operations across sectors has evolved. The healthcare industry has been experiencing a paradigm shift in its management methods, thanks to the technology that brings the opportunity to improve patient care without making it impeding healthcare systems. RemoteHealth Monitoring is one such area that has been gaining much attention. This game-changing technology has also increased patient engagement. Much of this transition has occurred since the COVID-19 pandemic, when many people discovered the benefits of Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). Remote Patient Monitoring Services enable healthcare providers to keep track of their patient’s vitals and other health data remotely. It cuts down the need for frequent in-person visits to hospitals and clinics. Instead, people can monitor their blood pressure, oxygen levels, pulse rate, blood sugar levels, etc., at hom

  Wearable technology is not new. Although it seems it is a product of recent years, it has a rich history that dates to several centuries. Let us briefly understand a bit about wearable devices and how they have been helpful in Remote Patient Monitoring Services in the present times. The Evolution of Wearable Devices It can be safely said that one of the first wearable devices that humankind has known since the 17 th century is the pocket watch. More recently, in 2002, the Bluetooth headset marked the beginning when wearables started becoming more accepted. GoPro revolutionized wearable cameras in 2004, while Fitbit paved the way for wearable technology for health-conscious users. Today, wearable technology ranges from fitness trackers to smartwatches. They monitor aspects such as heart rate and sleep patterns. More advanced wearables include specific ECG monitors that even help track atrial fibrillation. The explosion in wearables, especially in recent times, has become possible th

  Today’s world is undergoing a dynamic shift, faster than ever before. From quick pizza delivery through an app to large organizations scaling 10x remotely, technology has taken the experience and operations to the next level. And the healthcare industry is not much behind. When it comes to using technology for massive advancements in the healthcare space, remote health monitoring is the first service that will elevate the experience and will be used by most healthcare providers.  To give you a survey on adaptation,   according to Insider Intelligence, 70.6 million patients from the USA US, or 26.2% of the population, will use Remote Patient Monitoring tools by 2025.  To share experience and insights,  the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center shared that they were able to reduce hospital readmissions by 76% - and increase patient satisfaction scores by over 90% - all by equipping patients with tablets and RPM equipment. The present and the future indicate that the next big thing th

  Remote Patient Monitoring ( RPM ) is not new. It was in vogue even before the COVID-19 pandemic. However, in the post-pandemic scenario, it is gaining much popularity because of its ability to help patients with critical illnesses in the best possible manner. Today, Remote Patient Monitoring Services are the first choice for many patients and health practitioners. These services are being rapidly embraced by hospitals worldwide. As the name suggests, RPM is used to monitor patients remotely with the help of digital technology. It has been found particularly useful in the case of patients with critical illnesses and situations that require post-acute care at home. Due to their illness, these patients require superior medical attention than other patients.   RPM and Chronic Conditions Practitioners and patients can leverage Remote Patient Monitoring to effectively manage common chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and COPD. In the USA alone, nearly one-third of annua

Introduction Remote patient monitoring services (RPM) have seen significant growth recently. These services have been positively impacted by technological advancements that can make them more accessible, efficient, and cost-effective.  Remote patient monitoring uses appropriate technology to collect and analyze patient data through digital services. This helps patients avail themselves of healthcare services without remaining present at a healthcare facility. Remote patient monitoring services are just one of how patient healthcare needs can be met. Let us look at some of the statistics involving the use of RPM. The Benefits of RPM – a Few Statistics Look at a few statistics concerning Remote Patient Monitoring Services in the USA. Research and Markets predict that the Global RPM systems market will be worth over $1.7 billion by 2027. This is nearly 128% up from the opportunity the market currently represents. Further, it can potentially prevent between 460,000 and 627,000 he
