Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for remote patient management and monitoring. The patient is monitored with a wireless sensor system connected to an application executing on a patient user computing device. The system continuously monitors physiological parameters, such as, but not limited to, blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ), pulse rate, perfusion index, pleth variability index, and/or respiration rate from the photoplethysmograph. The system triggers alarms if the patient physiological data violates thresholds. Care providers review patient data and associated alarm(s) with graphical user interfaces.

Claims (30)

1. A remote monitoring kit comprising:

a package, wherein the package is configured to be mailed;

a pulse oximetry sensor device comprising a removable chip, the removable chip comprising:

a wireless communications device;

a memory device configured to store instructions; and

a hardware processor configured to execute the instructions to:

pair, via the wireless communications device, with a patient user computing device through a downloadable application,

wherein the pulse oximetry sensor device is disposed within the package; and

a second sensor device configured to receive the removable chip, wherein the second sensor device is disposed within the package.

2. The remote monitoring kit of claim 1 , further comprising a scannable code.

3. The remote monitoring kit of claim 2 , wherein the scannable code encodes a link to download the downloadable application.

4. The remote monitoring kit of claim 2 , wherein the downloadable application is configured to receive input data associated with the scannable code.

5. The remote monitoring kit of claim 4 , wherein receipt of the input data by the downloadable application causes the downloadable application to initiate pairing with the pulse oximetry sensor device.

6. The remote monitoring kit of claim 1 , wherein the patient user computing device comprises a smart phone or a tablet.

7. The remote monitoring kit of claim 1 , further comprising a connectivity hub device, wherein the connectivity hub device is configured to communicate with the pulse oximetry sensor device and a remote server, and wherein the connectivity hub device is disposed within the package.

8. A remote monitoring kit comprising:

a package, wherein the package is configured to be mailed; and

a pulse oximetry sensor device comprising a removable chip, the removable chip comprising:

a wireless communications device;

a memory device configured to store instructions; and

a hardware processor configured to execute the instructions to:

pair, via the wireless communications device, with a patient user computing device through a downloadable application,

wherein the pulse oximetry sensor device is disposed within the package.

9. The remote monitoring kit of claim 8 , further comprising a scannable code.

10. The remote monitoring kit of claim 9 , wherein the scannable code encodes a link to download the downloadable application.

11. The remote monitoring kit of claim 9 , wherein the downloadable application is configured to receive input data associated with the scannable code.

12. The remote monitoring kit of claim 11 , wherein receipt of the input data by the downloadable application causes the downloadable application to initiate pairing with the pulse oximetry sensor device.

13. The remote monitoring kit of claim 8 , further comprising a second sensor device, wherein the second sensor device is configured to receive the removable chip, and wherein the second sensor device is disposed within the package.

14. The remote monitoring kit of claim 8 , wherein the patient user computing device comprises a smart phone or a tablet.

15. The remote monitoring kit of claim 8 , further comprising a connectivity hub device, wherein the connectivity hub device is configured to communicate with the pulse oximetry sensor device and a remote server, and wherein the connectivity hub device is disposed within the package.
