Philips Remote Fetal Monitoring solution

The Philips Remote Fetal Monitoring solution aims to address maternal care disparities and increase access to prescribed prenatal care. With this integration between Philips and Nuvo, we strive to support better outcomes for our patients by potentially: improving clinician workflows and creating efficiencies, improving patient compliance, improving patient satisfaction scores (HCAHPS), and reducing hospital utilization.

The U.S. continues to experience acute staffing shortages in medical care. Philips has the potential to ease the burden on providers by shifting a portion of care to the home setting. Providers will be able to prescribe the INVU platform¹ to expectant mothers, who will wear the sensor band during virtual visits with their physicians. During these visits, the expectant mother views simplified data via the paired INVU mobile app, while the provider receives non-stress test readings equivalent to what OB/GYNs are accustomed to seeing during in-office procedures. Fetal trace data is automatically sent to the Electronic Medical Record for archival storage.

The Philips-Nuvo partnership addresses the challenges mothers face throughout the stages of pregnancy. The INVU platform enables remote pregnancy management so that physicians can conduct fetal non-stress tests (NSTs) remotely with patients anywhere, anytime³. The INVU platform1 has been validated for efficacy, safety, and reliable self-administration through multi-center clinical trials and human factors studies². Now, every monitoring session gives physicians a view of the live fetal monitoring trace, no matter where their patient is³.
