CardiAi Launches Blood Pressure Monitoring System

CardiAI Inc. has released its new 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring system, BPAro—a compact, portable, self-monitoring blood pressure device that uses Bluetooth for wireless data collection and uploads data to a secure cloud database.

BPAro is clinically validated for accuracy and has received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada. The device provides blood pressure monitoring for evidence-based healthcare by synchronizing patient and physician results in real-time, without delay. BPAro measures and automatically records patient blood pressure, at regular programmed intervals. At 30 minute intervals, BPAro can collect blood pressure measurements for up to seven days. While using BPAro, patients can participate in any of their day-to-day activities, including sleep. BPAro has been designed and tested to be user-friendly and straightforward to start up. All results are recorded on the user’s personal cloud account and are visible in the BPAro app on a computer or mobile device. 
 
“BPAro is the first to release among a number of point-of-care devices that will bridge the gap between a patient’s everyday life and the doctor’s office to aid in better patient treatment and preventative healthcare solutions,” said Dr. Anmol Kapoor, founder and CEO of CardiAI. “High blood pressure can be a serious condition that could lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure and loss of vision. Accurate and long-term blood pressure metrics aid in patient diagnosis and treatment. BPAro removes uncertainty and puts precision medicine in your hands.”
 
The BPAro device is a clinically validated 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM) with cloud-based advanced analytics that can seamlessly integrate with existing electronic health records using HL7 connectivity. BPAro measures and generates a large number of blood pressure readings without manual work from a doctor or the patient. These measurements are collected at regular programmable intervals for up to 24 hours. The data generated creates a blood pressure profile for the patient in their usual environment – unaffected by the stressors present in clinical settings. The machine wirelessly uploads data to the BPAro app, which allows healthcare teams to access data promptly and mediates teleconsultations securely.
 
“BPAro is a one-stop service that tackles the epidemic of high blood pressure by providing accurate diagnosis and remote care with precision. We are the first company to provide timely, clinically validated blood pressure monitoring, cloud-based analytics through the BPAro mobile application, built-in EMR for telemedicine consultations and the writing of prescriptions for patients into a complete platform,” said Kapoor.
