Remote Monitoring of CHF Patients
February 16, 2010 | Terry Sharrer
Meridian Health (Neptune, NJ) is using MedApps (Scottsdale, AZ) telemonitoring services for congestive heart failure discharges. The aim of their pilot is: “1) Monitor signs and symptoms immediately after discharge from hospital environments and provide comprehensive, individualized education and follow up support; 2) Promote patient self-management, independence and adherence to prescribed treatments; and 3) Help identify early signs / symptoms of worsening conditions in a post acute environment.” MORE
