Benefits for Patients
• Reduce stays at the healthcare center. Patients measure their constants continuously and securely from anywhere so they do not need to
be at the hospital and their quality of life increases.
• Real-time remote support for the patient. Medical staff manages the patient in real time using a personalized dashboard with
configurable alarms.
• Patients can have quick access to the clinicians when they need it. In case of an urgency the clinicians get to know it and can interact
with the patient as soon as possible.
• Better adherence to the treatment. The use of manual and automatic reminders and questionnaires increases patient adherence to the
treatment.
• Improved health outcomes. The patient has an enhanced overall experience with the healthcare service and therefore improved health
outcomes and quality of life.
