health data outside a traditional healthcare environment. Remote patient monitoring technologies collect and record patient data for review, diagnosis, and clinical management. New monitoring devices are emerging daily, but a few common examples include blood pressure monitors, cardiac implants, and blood glucose meters.

This allows clinicians to collect patient data in real-time, thus reducing the need for routine in-patient visits while strengthening the patient-clinician relationship. See the use case below to learn how a diabetes patient can better manage their care using an RPM app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-brand-color has-text-color has-option-default\">Remote Patient Monitoring use case<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">Michelle has Type 2 diabetes and needs round-the-clock monitoring of her blood glucose levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">A physician-led care team provides Michelle with a connected glucometer that allows for the automatic wireless transmission of blood glucose readings to the team. The team also gives Michelle a mobile app to help track her blood sugar and other health indicators. Michelle can view her care plan, log food intake, order test strips, and receive health coaching through the app. Michelle is instructed to self-test her blood glucose daily. A care team member reviews the transmitted readings and follows up with Michelle if her results show a deterioration in glycemic control. The care team also provides Michelle with ongoing coaching through the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-option-mb40\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"433\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case-1024x433.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case-1024x433.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case-768x325.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case-882x373.png 882w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/rpm-use-case.png 1352w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">Every month, the RPM vendor sends a report to Michelle&#8217;s primary care provider with an update on her glycemic control and condition. In addition to the monthly reports, the vendor contacts Michelle&#8217;s primary care provider if any other health issues arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">Michelle&#8217;s RPM solution helps reduce her need for in-person visits and promotes early intervention by clinicians who track her data digitally.

Vendor selection<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">Have you considered your team&#8217;s capabilities and time capacity for your initiative? Internal IT typically does not have the same skill-sets as a product, design, and <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/\">custom software development<\/a> company, yet it will be a key partner in integrations, security, and compliance.

Define the ecosystem<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">How will you set up a secure RPM ecosystem? Your internal IT team will be a critical stakeholder in signing off on your implementation. You\u2019ll need a full stack of technologies, including Bluetooth connectivity, a mobile interface, a server for data transfer, and secure data storage. In addition, the ecosystem must be reliable &amp; fault-tolerant, with continuous device functionality with or without an internet connection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-16 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-m0 has-option-mb40\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/define-the-user-experience.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8018\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:80%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-option-default\">8.
