Also by Philips: “The world’s first large-scale, randomized prospective telemonitoring trial showed that homebased telemonitoring reduced the number of days spent in hospital by 26% and led to an overall 10% cost savings compared to nurse telephone support. Home Telemonitoring also significantly improved survival rates relative to usual care and led to high levels of patient satisfaction.”
