Do you think telemonitoring could lead to better readings of low blood pressure as well?

If you are a patient and you have a monitor that takes your blood pressure all the time and sends it back to “your doctor” (probably a nurse or tech), you are much more likely to do what’s necessary to keep it down. That could work. I can tell you the people that need this sort of thing the most are, at $1350 per person, unlikely to get it. Plus, who wants to think about their blood pressure all day? I think putting another technology between you and other people is not a step forward.

What?? Technological improvements have NOT always proved to be a boost in improving life and health. Seriously? I give you robotic surgery as an example. Prolonged ICU stays at the end of life. Expensive drugs with dubious benefits. Colonoscopies for 80 year olds. All this great technology and we still can’t figure out how to keep people from getting fat.

Technological advancements have always proved to be a boost in the medical field in improving health and life of the people.

I’ll keep an eye open for ways to use this technology if it proves to be useful in actual practice.
