The global home medical equipment market is experiencing explosive growth. Smart devices are being used to monitor and treat patients suffering from diabetes, cardiac disorders, and other medical conditions. Each of these methods has advantages and limitations in terms of cost, reliability, simplicity, or other features defining the quality of the product.
Onboarding and installing a device: Medical devices can be challenging to set up, often requiring professional assistance, to ensure that the device is calibrated to the patient’s needs. Many rely on setup instructions that can be difficult to follow, making this option less ideal for some users.
Healthcare issues: Even relatively minor medical conditions can benefit from the simple, reliable connectivity afforded by cellular technology. Wi-Fi connections, though generally reliable, can be disrupted by power failures, misconfigurations, or interference from other devices.
Security issues: When data travels from the device to the processing entity in the cloud, it goes through several network and application layers. Whether with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cellular, each layer can be targeted to compromise the data.
