An elite panel of industry expert judges, including members of the media, designers, engineers and more, reviewed submissions based on innovation, engineering and functionality, aesthetic and design.
VitalOn is a comprehensive remote patient monitoring platform for seniors and individuals living with chronic conditions. Combining telecare, telehealth and wellness capabilities into a single, connected platform that is always on, it provides round-the-clock monitoring for a wide range of aging-related issues and chronic conditions. The platform continuously monitors wellbeing parameters and vital signs from multiple health and monitoring devices to detect and alert in case of abnormal activity. It addresses conditions, including diabetes, hypertension and congestive heart failure without the need to rely on smartphone or tablet apps.
“VitalOn provides greater peace of mind to active seniors and their families by monitoring their vital health indications and connecting them directly to their care providers, both inside and outside of the home,” said Dr. Haim Amir, CEO and Founder of Essence Group. “We are honored to have been recognized by CES for providing a seamless, patient-centric solution that comprehensively monitors the health and general wellbeing of individuals without infringing on their daily lives.”
