Overview
Preventice specializes in creating health technology solutions that connect mobile devices with cloud platforms, supporting smartphones, tablets, and web applications. The company has partnered with organizations such as Merck, Mayo Clinic, and Pfizer to develop close to 40 digital tools focused on areas like prescription adherence, cardiac health, sleep apnea treatment, and diabetes care.
In August 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted approval for Preventice’s BodyGuardian Remote Monitoring System—a wearable technology created in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic. This device allows healthcare providers to remotely track ambulatory patients experiencing non-life-threatening arrhythmias using a dedicated cellular phone paired with the wearable unit. Real-time heart rate information is transmitted securely to a web portal accessible on both computers and tablets.
