New York-based Aloe Care Health has integrated BioIntelliSense’s remote patient monitoring (RPM) wearable devices into its voice-activated medical alert system and caregiver support platform.

This means the BioIntelliSense FDA-cleared BioSticker and medical grade BioButton have become the first RPM devices to earn the Certified by Aloe Care designation.

California-based BioIntelliSense delivers clinical intelligence through its portfolio of single-use wearable medical devices for continuous vital sign monitoring and detection of adverse patient trends.

Launching in the second half of 2021, the BioSticker and the BioButton multi-parameter data and analytics will connect to the proprietary Aloe Care smart hub via Bluetooth to enable full-service RPM and care for independent older adults.

“This combination is truly the next generation of remote patient monitoring,” said Ray Spoljaric, CEO of Aloe Care Health. “Telemedicine and remote care are here to stay, and the advances made by the team at BioIntelliSense are playing a critical role in the speed and efficacy with which care is delivered. They were an obvious choice to become the first RPM devices certified on the Aloe Care Health platform.”

The BioSticker and BioButton wearables are designed to be discreetly worn on the upper left chest for remote data capture and a simple stick-it-on-and-forget-it patient experience. The BioSticker is a single-use medical device for up to 30 days of continuous vital sign monitoring and the BioButton is configurable for up to 60 days on a single use disposable capturing respiratory rate, heart rate at rest and skin temperature, body position, activity levels, steps, sleep status, and high-resolution gait analysis.

Aloe Care’s products include an in-home smart hub for secure, two-way, hands-free voice communication, and additional smart sensors to detect falls, motion, air quality and temperature. Aloe Care is bolstered by round-the-clock access to a professional emergency response team. It also includes a private, secure family app for real-time status checks, voice calls directly into the smart hub, and care collaboration with family and professional caregivers.

“Our companies share a common vision of advancing and scaling remote care that provides an added layer of safety and reliability for older adults to age with grace and dignity,” said James Mault, CEO of BioIntelliSense. “The combination of our devices and data insights enables medical-grade monitoring and alerting at home. The collaboration with Aloe Care extends our reach and simplifies deployments where connectivity exists in the home via the Aloe Care hub.”
