Why choose a remote blood pressure monitor from CareSimple?
The CareSimple remote blood pressure monitoring system combines a patient-friendly BP monitor with our industry-leading RPM technology to deliver a cost-effective way for healthcare providers expand their telehealth offerings while giving patients the ability to receive treatment from the comfort and convenience of their homes.
The CareSimple remote blood pressure monitoring system works by wirelessly sending data from a patient’s BP monitoring device directly to their health care provider / digital health file for fast review and monitoring by their physician or care team. Equipped with that patient data, care providers can more readily monitor events such as a morning blood pressure surge, and can more frequently check the patient’s condition to make timelier, better-informed decisions.
