Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM)
Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) refers to the use of digital health technologies to observe and manage patients’ health conditions from a distance. This approach leverages tools such as wearable devices, mobile apps, and sensors to track key health metrics like medication adherence, symptoms, and overall well-being. RTM enables healthcare providers to continuously monitor patients outside traditional clinical settings, providing timely interventions and personalized care adjustments based on real-time data. This proactive management approach enhances patient engagement, improves outcomes, and reduces the need for in-person visits, particularly in chronic disease management. RTM is especially valuable in supporting patients with conditions that require regular monitoring and adjustment, offering a more convenient and efficient method of delivering care.
