Preventice Solutions announced today that BodyGuardian Heart Remote Patient Monitoring System and PatientCare platform will be commercially available in Q3, 2015. Testing with the BodyGuardian Remote Monitoring System is underway nationally to ensure ongoing improvements and care team efficiency. It will target the use of remote monitoring including:
- Post-surgical cardiac patients to evaluate how monitoring cardiac rhythms remotely influence all phases of recovery.
- 24/7 continuous monitoring of infrequently symptomatic patients as they go about their daily lives, with the objective of detecting potential arrhythmias by tracking ECG, respiratory rate and activity.
Preventice Solutions will demonstrate the BodyGuardian Heart and the PatientCare Platform at the HRS 2015 http://www.mhealthsummit.org/, one of the industry's leading conferences in research, delivery of arrhythmia care and services, in Boston, MA, May 13-16, 2015. The BodyGuardian uses sophisticated algorithms to support remote monitoring for individuals with cardiac arrhythmias.
John Untereker, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, said "Innovative remote monitoring technology will help physicians gain deeper insights into their patients' health by collecting near real-time data. BodyGuardian Heart will allow healthcare practitioners to monitor critical measures and manage many patients, thus safeguarding the health and safety of individuals every day. This approach will ultimately transform how health care is delivered for many common cardiac and chronic diseases."
"We are close to achieving two important milestones for the BodyGuardian with the commercial availability in early summer and robust piloting here in the United States. The beta testing is a direct indicator of significant interest in BodyGuardian by early adopters and proves their belief that Preventice Solutions is poised to change the future of remote monitoring," said Jon Otterstatter, President and Chief Global Strategy Officer of Preventice Inc.
"We are excited to partner with Preventice Solutions and pleased to see BodyGuardian takes another step in its success story. This collaboration represents a great opportunity to provide our patients with remote monitoring," said Dr. Craig J. McCotter, MD, Upstate Cardiology Greenville, South Carolina. "The combination of the BodyGuardian Heart and the PatientCare Platform allows us to achieve superior monitoring and support our patients at home, as if they were at the clinic"
