While numerous options are available, selecting the appropriate remote blood pressure monitor for remote healthcare forward organizations, value-based healthcare providers can be challenging. Tenovi understands the importance of offering FDA-cleared products that are accurate, reliable, and genuinely benefit patients.
This article outlines 7 critical benefits of the Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 for remote health companies.
What is a Remote Blood Pressure Monitor?
Keeping a close eye on blood pressure is essential for managing several chronic conditions. Remote blood pressure monitoring helps healthcare providers identify potential issues before they become a crisis. With consistent health data, a physician can easily adjust treatment plans as necessary while giving more personalized care to their patients. Tenovi’s innovative remote blood pressure monitor offers a convenient and effective solution for individuals dealing with the following health challenges.
- Hypertension (high blood pressure) is one of the most common conditions managed with remote blood pressure monitoring. Patients may use a monitor to track their readings over time and physicians can adjust their treatment plans as necessary.
- Heart disease: Patients with heart disease use a remote blood pressure monitor to track their blood pressure and other vital signs, such as heart rate and oxygen levels.
- Diabetes: Patients with diabetes are at increased risk of developing hypertension and may benefit from remote blood pressure monitoring to manage their blood pressure and reduce their risk of complications.
- Chronic kidney disease: Patients with chronic kidney disease are also at increased risk of developing hypertension and may require close blood pressure monitoring to prevent further kidney damage.
- High-risk pregnancy: Pregnant women with hypertension may use a remote blood pressure monitor to track their blood pressure and identify potential complications.
Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3
Maintaining good health adds to a happy and productive life. One important aspect of health is maintaining healthy blood pressure levels. Traditional blood pressure monitoring required patients to manually log measurements, a process that was prone to errors. The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 offers a convenient solution to track blood pressure accurately between doctor appointments, and it automatically and securely sends the measurements to providers.
The Gen 3 monitor builds on Tenovi’s proven design with new patient-friendly upgrades: a built-in voice function that reads results aloud (with a mute button when it isn’t needed), movement error detection for more reliable readings, irregular-heartbeat detection that flags results for the care team to review, and a premium cuff available in three sizes. Patients can take a single reading or a triple-average reading, and review past readings right on the device.
Tenovi’s remote patient monitoring devices are easy to use for the aging population, making the Gen 3 monitor easy to use immediately. Patients do not have to pair devices or download apps.
Here are 7 key benefits of the Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3.
1) Accurate and Timely Data Collection
The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 utilizes Bluetooth technology that connects automatically to the Tenovi Cellular Gateway. With one touch, data is automatically transmitted to healthcare providers. In addition, the Gen 3 monitor offers distinctive features to help patients manage their blood pressure from home and share the data with their healthcare providers.
- The Gateway can connect with other RPM devices.
- Transmits data to the HIPAA-compliant Tenovi cloud through various cellular networks.
- Simple red light / green light reminder system that improves patient measurement adherence.
- A friendly voice function reads results aloud, so patients get their numbers without reading the display (with a mute button when preferred).
- Movement error detection and irregular-heartbeat detection help ensure accurate, clinically useful readings.
- Single reading or triple-average (3-measurement) mode for greater confidence in each result.
- On-device memory lets patients review past readings.
- Connects to most common carriers in North America for enhanced cellular reception.
- A large LCD screen displays systolic, diastolic, and pulse rates.
- Premium cuff available in three sizes to ensure accurate readings.
2) Better API Integration
Tenovi APIs are flexible and can be easily integrated into any digital system, making it easy for organizations to manage their RPM data. In addition, the Tenovi dashboard lets qualified healthcare professionals view or send data directly to their software platform.
In addition to data integration, our front-end API dashboard offers billing, fulfillment, and device management features. This comprehensive platform streamlines the management process for care teams, reducing the workload and allowing them to focus on providing better care for their patients.
Moreover, Tenovi APIs meet HIPAA guidelines, ensuring patient health data security and privacy. With Tenovi, healthcare organizations can rest easy knowing their data is protected and their devices are accurate and perform at the highest quality.
3) Improves Patient Adherence. No Nagging Required.
Low patient adherence kills remote patient monitoring programs. The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 enables patients to manage their hypertension proactively, promoting better health outcomes. Indeed, the Tenovi platform increases the number of patients eligible for Medicare CPT 99454 reimbursement by 27% compared to leading cellular RPM devices.
Tenovi eliminates the need for complicated technology and app downloads. At the start of each day, the LED on the Tenovi Cellular Gateway device turns red, reminding the patient that it’s time to take their blood pressure measurement. Once the patient takes a measurement, the LED ring turns green, letting them know the reading was transmitted to their healthcare provider. The Gen 3 monitor’s voice function adds another layer of accessibility, reading results aloud for patients who have difficulty seeing the display.
According to a pilot study published in PLOS One, remote physiological monitoring, combined with reminders from the RPM device, could facilitate self-care treatment plans and potentially lower hospital readmission rates.
4) Improved Quality of Value-Based Care
Value-based care is a healthcare delivery model that emphasizes the quality of care over the quantity of care. As a result, providers and healthcare teams can achieve better outcomes with their patients by focusing on preventive care and coordinating care across the continuum, resulting in better patient outcomes and lower healthcare costs.
To achieve this, providers and healthcare teams need to spend more time with their patients, building relationships, understanding their needs and goals, and collaborating with other healthcare providers to ensure patients receive the proper care at the right time.
Tenovi’s remote patient monitoring solutions automate shipping, fulfillment, tech support, and administrative processes for healthcare providers and RPM teams. By automating these tasks, physicians can devote more time to direct patient care and transitions towards value-based care models.
For example, Tenovi’s real-time data capabilities enable providers to:
- Adjust medication dosages promptly based on patient data
- Monitor for potential complications or adverse events
- Collect and analyze patient feedback
These data-driven insights facilitate improved quality of care and better patient outcomes overall. Healthcare teams can leverage RPM data to make more informed decisions and provide patients more personalized, value-based care.
5) Increased Administrative Efficiency
The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 can help healthcare providers and caregivers save time and resources. By automating the data collection process, healthcare providers can spend more time on patient care and less on administrative tasks. In addition, Tenovi offers HIPAA-compliant technical support for patients and partners.
Although some RPM vendors bulk ship devices, Tenovi can ship the remote blood pressure monitoring unit directly to patients. Meanwhile, Tenovi HIPAA-compliant technical support specialists can onboard patients, provide videos for how to use RPM devices when necessary, and support RPM staff requiring technical support. Thus, providers and healthcare teams have more time to continue their work with their patients.
6) Better Collaboration
The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 can facilitate better collaboration between healthcare providers and patients. We offer a comprehensive API integration solution for data transfer, observation, activation, and fulfillment. Patients can securely share their data with their healthcare providers, who can provide real-time feedback and guidance. This can lead to better communication and collaboration, improving patient outcomes.
7) Cost-Effective Solution
Even more, the Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 is a cost-effective solution that can significantly reduce costs. Remote monitoring eliminates the need for frequent in-person visits, reducing the cost of transportation and lost wages. Thus, it leads to significant cost savings for patients and healthcare providers alike. In addition, virtually any Bluetooth RPM device can connect through the Tenovi Cellular Gateway, which presents cost savings.
The Tenovi Blood Pressure Monitor Gen 3 is valuable for telehealth, chronic care, RPM services, and software companies partnering with healthcare providers. By providing accurate and timely data, improving patient engagement, improving the quality of care, cost savings, increasing efficiency, and facilitating better collaboration, the Gen 3 monitor can help healthcare providers and patients achieve better outcomes.
