Physiology monitoring for remote patient care teams

A wearable sends Bluetooth measurements to a patient app that streams data into provider systems. Care teams compare returned values over time and view raw measurements or calculated indicators in their own interfaces.

About Physiology monitoring for remote patient care teams

Returning wearable measurements into a provider’s existing systems gives care teams a record to review across time. Empatica combines a physiological watch with software integration tools for remote patient monitoring. The provider connects the selected measurements with its own patient application, cloud infrastructure and records rather than creating a separate manual collection workflow.

EmbracePlus measures optical pulse signals, skin temperature, electrical skin conductance and movement. Skin conductance tracks changes in the skin’s electrical properties, while the optical sensor collects pulse-related signals. Bluetooth transfers measurements to a compatible patient phone. The platform’s SDK, a software development kit, provides the functions used to build the patient app and stream the wearable data into the provider’s infrastructure. Cloud connections then supply the healthcare interface or electronic patient record system.

Care staff review raw measurements and derived indicators for pulse, respiration, oxygen saturation, temperature, activity or sleep in the configured arrangement. Comparing returned values across periods helps the team examine a change within its normal care review. The integration brings the patient’s device data into the provider’s own workflow, with the selected measurements, app functions and data connections established for that deployment. Records remain available to the care team alongside its other patient information.

How it works

Sense
Measure optical pulse signals, skin temperature and movement.
Connect
Send Bluetooth readings to the integrated patient phone app.
Analyze
Stream raw values and calculated measures to provider systems.
Act
Review measurement changes within the existing care workflow.

Questions and answers

How is the patient application connected to the wearable?

The platform SDK provides integration functions for collecting EmbracePlus readings through a compatible phone’s Bluetooth connection.

Can measurements enter an existing patient record system?

Yes. A configured integration supplies provider infrastructure and electronic patient records from the provider’s cloud.

What formats are available to the provider interface?

The integration supplies raw measurements and derived digital measures for the selected configuration.

Which sensor inputs are collected by the physiological watch?

EmbracePlus includes optical pulse, skin conductance, skin temperature, accelerometer and gyroscope measurements.
