DEVICE

Telehealth monitoring system (Honni Med)

The system is uploaded with personal information including: monitoring start time; clinical observations (blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturations); and questions relating to symptoms. The patient is instructed on use and observed monitoring. The patient is monitored daily for a period of six months. The monitoring session lasts approximately 10 minutes during which the patient attaches a finger probe and blood pressure cuff and responds 'yes' or 'no' to the set questions. Daily data is transmitted via a phone line to a secure server to be downloaded and reviewed by a Telehealth nurse.If one or more of the clinical observations is outside normal limits the appropriate healthcare intervention is utilised.
