Evaware’s Telehealth Platform enables clinicians to remotely monitor the vital signs
of their home-based patients on an almost constant basis and automatically send
alerts when any pre-determined clinical thresholds are breached.
The Telehealth Platform is easily configured to meet the needs of each individual
patient and has the capability of checking a range of vital signs such as pulse
rate, blood pressure, , temperature, peak flow, blood glucose, weight (Even ECG)
and many other parameters regularly throughout the day and night. Whenever a pre-determined
threshold is breached an alert is automatically relayed to the appropriate clinicians
by email or text.
Nick Dyer, Managing Director of Evaware explains – “Telehealth systems are becoming
an essential part of the mix in healthcare services in that they keep constant surveillance
on patients with long term illnesses and disabilities. Our Telehealth Platform benefits
patients, health authorities and doctors. Patients can be monitored far more frequently
and without the need to visit their doctor or hospital; health authorities benefit
from reduced admissions costs; and doctors have less patient visits and a more manageable
workload.”
The RTX Telehealth Monitor is Bluetooth enabled and integrates fully with Evaware’s
Project E-vita Patient Record Solution, together forming the Telehealth Platform.
The Platform’s unique scripting functionality enables a series of questions and
answers to be configured, allowing the patient to interact with the system using
simple Yes/No buttons to describe their symptoms/condition. The Telehealth Platform
modifies each question depending on the answer to previous questions, in much the
same way as a doctor would, thereby producing an accurate assessment of the patient’s
condition. The patient’s EPR is updated immediately and available to all authorised
clinicians.
Being integrated with a full EPR system gives clinicians the ability to record all
other data about a patient’s treatment including visits by healthcare professionals
and admissions to hospitals. The uploading of medical imagery and other documents
provides a complete and comprehensive picture of the patient’s history and current
condition. The Telehealth Platform can easily and quickly be reconfigured remotely
without the need for on-site support. The RTX Telehealth monitor is EU Medical Device
Directive EN60601 certified and also United States FDA 510(k) approved.
