Executive Summary
Sciometrix is setting a new standard in care management with its 24/7 Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) alert system. This data-driven approach significantly reduces emergency room (ER) visits and hospital readmissions, equipping providers with real-time, actionable insights. Our system, overseen by Registered Nurses (RNs), enables proactive interventions, ensuring high-risk patients receive timely care.
This whitepaper explores how Sciometrix’s RPM technology shifts care from reactive to preventive by leveraging continuous monitoring and customized alerts. By prioritizing early detection, Sciometrix improves patient outcomes while easing provider burden, offering a comprehensive solution to chronic care management.

The Growing Challenge of Chronic Illnesses
Chronic diseases affect millions, particularly the elderly. 60% of U.S. adults have at least one chronic disease, and 40% have two or more (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2023). These conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory illnesses, drive high ER visits and readmission rates.
Delayed intervention exacerbates these issues. Research indicates that timely care can reduce hospitalizations by over 40% (American Journal of Managed Care, 2023). Sciometrix’s 24/7 RPM alert system addresses this challenge by empowering providers with real-time insights, enabling early intervention to prevent complications.

Sciometrix’s 24/7 RPM Alert System: How It Works
[A] Seamless RPM Ecosystem
Sciometrix’s RPM platform leverages advanced technology to gather, monitor, and analyze real-time health data from patients with chronic conditions. Through 5G enabled, FDAA-approved, easy to use, free devices given to the patients, the platform tracks critical vital signs. The data is then continuously analyzed to detect abnormal patterns, triggering alerts whenever necessary. Key metrics monitored include:
Heart rate fluctuations
Blood pressure spikes
Blood glucose abnormalities
Oxygen saturation drops
When abnormalities are detected, instant alerts are sent to the care team, allowing for timely and effective responses that can prevent ER visits.
[B] Customized Alerts for Personalized Care
Unlike generic monitoring systems, Sciometrix allows customizable alert thresholds, ensuring providers receive notifications only for clinically significant events. This reduces unnecessary alarms and enhances response efficiency.

Real-World Impact: Preventing ER Visits
[A] Proactive Monitoring to Reduce Emergency Visits
Sciometrix’s 24/7 RPM system plays a crucial role in early detection and timely intervention, helping to prevent avoidable ER visits and hospital readmissions. By continuously tracking patient vitals, Sciometrix enables proactive, rather than reactive, care management.
—> Case Study: Detecting Silent Hypertension
Background: Angela, 72, had persistent high blood pressure but no symptoms. She was unaware of the risk.
Intervention: A Sciometrix RN noticed repeated blood pressure spikes and advised Angela to see her physician. She was referred to a cardiologist.
Outcome: With timely medication, Angela’s blood pressure stabilized, and she avoided a potential cardiac event.

[B] Preventing Readmissions with Post-Discharge Monitoring
Patients recently discharged from hospitals are at higher risk of complications. Sciometrix’s RPM system tracks recovery progress, ensuring early signs of deterioration are flagged immediately. This allows providers to intervene before an ER visit becomes necessary, ultimately reducing readmission rates and improving patient outcomes.
[C] Improving Chronic Disease Management
For patients managing long-term conditions, continuous monitoring ensures early detection of complications, allowing providers to make data-driven treatment adjustments. Sciometrix’s system delivers real-time insights that help refine care plans and optimize long-term disease management.
—> Case Study: Early Detection of Atrial Fibrillation
Background: Alan, 58, reported palpitations and headaches. His physician recommended monitoring.
Intervention: Sciometrix’s system flagged irregular blood pressure spikes, prompting his RN to recommend immediate physician follow-up.
Outcome: Alan was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib). Early intervention prevented a potential stroke.
