Recently, the Sorin Group announced that the FDA has approved its remote monitoring application, SmartView, designed for patients with cardiac rhythm management devices. This technology allows doctors to monitor patients outside the office with the Sorin Group implantable cardioverter defibrillator (IDC) Paradym device.
SmartView is a family health center that wirelessly receives data from patient implantable devices. This data is transmitted to the web application via the cellular technology network system. Doctors can obtain this data information through a valid PDF report. The monitor can alert the doctor via SMS, fax, or email, or send the message to a second doctor if the alarm system is not activated.
Although SmartView has just been licensed in the United States, the surveillance device was launched in some European countries and Canada in June 2012 and December 2012, respectively.
There has been evidence in the past that adding remote monitoring to these types of devices is helpful for patients. In 2010, Dr. Leslie Saxon, Executive Director of the Human Computer Center at the University of Southern California, completed a study of 100,000 patients with cardiac implants, which showed death of patients with remote monitors. The rate is half that of patients who do not use wireless tracking devices.
Dr. Saxon said in an interview with MobiHealthNews: "Some opponents said they don't want to use US health care funds for the high-tech equipment used by these patients. But time will prove that it is a good choice, very costly. Benefits. Because the incidence of heart failure is rising, this is very important for patients with heart failure. For the first time, the study shows its value and long-lasting efficacy from an economic perspective."
Many other medical device companies have also established remote monitoring systems similar to the Sorin Group SmartView. For example, Medtronic released its first app in June 2011 to help doctors monitor patients with implants. Later that year, St. Jude added an alarm system to its monitoring device for implanted devices supplied to Merlin@home.
