Health monitoring device uses Celluar IoT for high speed and secure data

A health monitoring solution WITHmyDOC is using cellular IoT connectivity in enabling physicians to remotely monitor vital signs including weight, blood glucose, temperature, ECG, blood oxygen saturation, medication management, and blood pressure, all from the comfort and convenience of patient homes.

WITHmyDOC uses tablet computer with Telit cellular IoT connection to ensure high speed of internet. WITHmyDOC’s kit called RPM@Home that patients use at home track vital signs, once the patient or caregiver turns on the tablet computer it automatically finds the right mobile network, establishes a connection and enables the syncing of patient data from their devices. RPM@Home also can receive data from most commercially available Bluetooth-enabled health and fitness wearables, such as smart watches.

“Early on, we realized that, even in today’s connected world, a large portion of the patient population we serve does not have access to quality bandwidth. Telit’s solution has allowed us to remain focused on our mission and expand acute homecare in rural areas of the community,” said Richard Rodriguez, President, CEO and Co-Founder of WITHmyDOC.

RPM@Home uses cellular network to securely upload patient data and unlike Wi-Fi it is less vulnerable to hackers.

“WITHmyDOC is leveraging cellular to knock down one of the biggest barriers to ubiquitous telehealth adoption: lack of internet access due to cost or unavailability,” said Scott Ellis, Vice President Connectivity Sales for Americas, Telit. “Telit connectivity solutions make it fast, easy and cost-effective for WITHmyDOC to provision, manage and troubleshoot its innovative RPM@Home devices.”
