- #6 Diabetes - Diabetes management requires control of multiple parameters: blood pressure, weight, and blood glucose. The real-time delivery of blood glucose and blood pressure readings enables immediate alerts for patient and healthcare providers to intervene when needed. There is evidence to show that daily diabetes management involving RPM is just as effective as usual clinic visit every 3 months;Congestive heart failure- A systematic review of the literature on home monitoring for heart failure patients indicates that RPM improves quality of life, shortens duration of stay in hospitals, decreases mortality rate, and reduces costs to the healthcare system;Infertility - A recent study of a remote patient monitoring solution for infertility demonstrated that for appropriately screened patients who had been seeking In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment, a six-month remote monitoring program had the same pregnancy rate as a cycle of IVF.
