RPM-002 📄 Overview A comprehensive RPM solution designed for post-surgical patients, particularly in orthopedic or cardiovascular recovery. It integrates wearable activity trackers (steps, range of motion), smart patches for wound monitoring (temperature, moisture, image analysis via smartphone camera), pain and symptom ePROs, and automated medication reminders. The platform provides a personalized rehabilitation plan, facilitates secure two-way communication with the care team (telehealth integration), and uses AI to flag potential complications (e.g., infection, poor adherence to exercises) requiring urgent attention. Key technologies: 👤 Target users: 👍 Benefits Reduced post-surgical readmission rates • Improved adherence to rehabilitation protocols • Early detection of complications (e.g., infection, DVT) • Enhanced patient confidence and reassurance during recovery • Optimized bed utilization and resource allocation in hospitals Use bullets or new lines. 👎 Challenges Ensuring high-quality image capture for wound analysis by patients • Interoperability with hospital EHR and scheduling systems • Training patients on proper device usage and data entry • Managing the volume of data and alerts for care teams • Ensuring equitable access for patients without smartphones or reliable internet 📋 Regulatory & Validation Likely SaMD Class IIa/IIb, depending on the diagnostic claims of the wound analysis component or the predictive analytics for complications. Telehealth components need to meet specific communication and privacy standards (e.g., HIPAA compliance).
