CJPS Medical Systems Introduces Remote Patient Monitoring With Tablet PCs

AUBURN HILLS -- CJPS Medical Systems announces today that VitalPoint Home, its remote patient monitor, can be used with Microsoft Windows-based Tablet PCs.

This announcement comes on the heels of CJPS being the first company waiving all connectivity fees to caregivers accessing their patients' data remotely using home monitors.

Typically, nurses and doctors have been using their desktops or laptops to view their patient data using VitalPoint HOME, which has been designed to be the easiest system to use anywhere, not just for the patients, but also for the caregivers monitoring their health.

This newest development makes it even easier for nurses and doctors to pick up patients' reported symptoms and vital signs data from anywhere. All existing VitalPoint Home units that have been sold in the field are already capable of such connectivity, and all that needs to be purchased is a Microsoft Windows-based Tablet PC, and then download VitalPoint Home Remote Device Connectivity software from CJPS.

With facilities looking to upgrade to easier-to-use, and more modern and reliable remote patient monitors to reduce their readmission rates, improve health care delivery, while trying to keep up with a sharp increase in older, chronically ill patients, this unique offering could not come at a better time.

VitalPoint is a standalone 4.5-pound device that can monitor blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, pulse rate, weight, glucose level, prothrombin time and ratios, temperature, fluid status, and provide electrocardiogram data, and provides the caregiver with the ability to remotely monitor patients' conditions using their laptop or cell phone.
