Pulse Oximeter remote vitals
How to remotely view data from a connected pulse oximeter in real time
During a Video Call consultation, you have the option to view data from a patient using their pulse oximeter in real time. Once you launch the Remote Vitals application and instruct your patient to connect their bluetooth or USB enabled health device to the Video Call, you will see the results live in the call screen. You have the option to manage control for participants, take a screenshot for the patient's record, export data and more.
Please see below for instructions regarding supported pulse oximeter devices and how to use the Remote Vitals App to connect a patient's Bluetooth or USB enabled pulse oximeter during a Video Call consultation.

Viewing and downloading historical data from the monitoring device
Some monitoring devices have the ability to store historical data and this can be accessed during a Video Call. In this way you can view the data from the device to monitor your patient's health. Currently, this has been tested and is working on the iHealth PO3M pulse oximeter. Please use these steps to access the historical data on this device:
| Join your patient in the Video Call and, when ready, click on Apps & Tools and then select Remote Vitals. Important: Ask your patient to turn on their monitoring device but tell them not to place it on their finger. This is because you want to access the historical data, rather than live data. |
|
|
Next, instruct your patient to click on Add Device.
Alternatively, you can click on Bluetooth for Another User in your screen and select the participant to prompt them to connect their device. |
|
|
Once the monitoring device pairs, your patient will see the Bluetooth symbol on the device light up. The historical data will be accessed and start sharing into the Video Call. |
