Use case examples
• Blood glucose monitoring – for example glucose meters and insulin pumps
• Cardiac monitoring – for example blood pressure and cardiac rhythm management
• Sleep monitoring – for example sleep apnea and ventilators
Further examples of connected health devices and services that are using and benefitting from cellular technology are automated external defibrillators (AED), weighing scales and thermometers. Hubs/gateways are also used, with cellular connectivity.
Benefits of having a cellular connection
