“As part of the first-ever study examining the effects of home-based monitoring across a variety of chronic conditions–rather than one specific disease–the Mayo Clinic, GE Healthcare and Intel will join forces to plug in to the health needs of 200 elderly patients at high risk for re-hospitalization.
Every day for one year, study participants will use at-home medical devices to measure their blood pressure, pulse, weight and other vital signs as well as answer several disease-specific questions.”
