Santa Barbara, CA based InTouch Health has announced its new RP-Xpress telemedicine device. The size of the RP-Xpress and Wi-Fi connectivity makes the device more portable than any of the previous InTouch offerings which we have covered here at Medgadget. The company also announced plans to incorporate mobile broadband into the RP-Xpress, which will enable use of the device in non-hospital settings.
From the press release:
RP-Xpress is a lightweight, rugged, portable device that brings the physician to the point of care, enabling remote consultation and active patient monitoring. As with all InTouch Health Remote Presence telemedicine devices, the RP-Xpress is FDA-cleared Class II for the highest level of clinical acuity. The portability of the RP-Xpress enables the delivery of clinical services across the continuum of care, improving the quality, access and timeliness of care.
