Remote Patient Monitoring
Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is a healthcare technology that allows doctors to monitor patients’ health data remotely using digital devices such as wearable sensors, mobile apps, and connected medical devices. These tools track vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, glucose levels, and oxygen saturation in real time and transmit the data to healthcare providers for analysis.
