There are several patients that live rural and live far from a hospital as well as many elderly that may lack transportation or it is difficult for them to get to the office. There are many patients that would benefit from the Vigilence 2 and the Vigileo monitoring systems. Monitoring a patient from a distance can also help with unnecessary visits to an ER. Sometimes the solution may be as simple such as a medication adjustment, and other times hospitalization may be required. This also can give some piece of mind to the individual as well as preserving their independence.
