Vital signs act as an integral piece of communication for a clinician to understand a patient’s condition & disease severity. As patient monitors continuously observe and provide notifications in the case of a serious event, it is important that any anomalous values are alerted to clinicians and provide physiological input data to control connected life
Blood pressure monitoring devices, whether personal or professional, are used as a means of understanding and tracking bodily blood pressure levels. Within the human body, the autonomic nervous system is responsible for monitoring blood pressure levels. Moreover, the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems both have effects on blood pressure, either raising or lowering it. Generally
Despite an overall decline in most procedural volumes on the global scale, the patient monitoring equipment market has seen substantial growth due to the consequences that follow COVID-19. With an increase in hospitalizations, monitoring key patients’ vitals became increasingly integral as the pandemic developed. With the pandemic continually evolving, and with consideration to the emergence
COVID-19 did its fair share of damage, but it also forced the adoption of telehealth technologies and remote patient monitoring within healthcare facilities so patients could contact their doctors from home.

Amidst the global COVID-19 pandemic, The FDA has granted enforcement discretion allowing CapsoVision the ability to launch at-home administration of CapsoCam Plus®. This device consists of a video capsule system intended for further visualization of the small bowel mucosa in adults. Gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopes are flexible visualization instruments that are inserted into the alimentary canal
Gastrointestinal testing and surveying methods, such as endoscopies and colonoscopies, are often very invasive and are limited in how much of the small intestine they can reach. Thus, there is a need to develop devices or techniques that can both increase the visibility of the gastrointestinal tract and decrease invasiveness while preserving functionality. Pill-shaped forms
