Remote Monitoring App
Patients can take control and proactively manage their own health with our Docobo Remote Monitoring solutions.
By managing conditions via the Remote Monitoring platform, patients are often able to stay in their own home, or residential home, avoiding GP visits or even hospital admissions.
Remote monitoring supports patients to manage a variety of conditions, including but not limited to:
- Respiratory
- Cardiac
- Diabetes
- Motor neurone disease
- Frailty
- Cancer
- Paediatrics
- Learning disabilities
- Elderly care
- Post-treatment monitoring
Data recorded within the app is collected via questionnaires with input from the patient on heart rate, breathing rate, blood oxygen saturation, blood pressure and more.

Benefits of Remote Monitoring for Users
Docobo's remote health monitoring tools support users in recording vital signs outside of clinical care settings. With remote monitoring programmes come a variety of benefits:
- Supporting patients to stay in their own homes, improving their quality of life and level of care.
- Facilitating shorter hospitals stays and therefore, more rapid recovery.
- Reducing the need to attend in-person appointments.
- Managing long term conditions closely and understanding health optimisation.
- The ability to take control of your own health.
Every Tuesday I do my blood pressure, enter my weight and oxygen readings and go through the questions about how I’m feeling on my app. If there are any problems, I will receive a call from one of the lovely nurses from the Digital Health Team and they will tell me what to do. And equally, If I have any queries, I can just ring up the team. It’s great and so easy!
It really has definitely improved my daily life and I really appreciate the service. Firstly, it saves you from having to go to the GP surgery so often. It’s lovely to know that someone is there, keeping an eye on my breathing, and if there are any problems arising from my readings, I will get a phone call.
I really love the app and hugely appreciate it!
