Companies in the early stages of developing remote patient monitoring systems must understand how the various components and sensors interplay. Our engineer shares key considerations when building RPM products to drive positive change in the health care sector.

Explaining HIPAA and the benefits of HIPAA-compliant software development, this educational blog post from our health tech device expert provides a checklist for ensuring software compliance.

As IoT devices transform the way we live and work, high-tech gadgets are collecting an increasing amount of information about our health status. This blog post recaps an article our director of technical solutions drafted discussing how integrating that health care data into one display is the key to improving care outcomes and even saving lives.

The health care industry is undergoing a digital transformation. IoT health care devices enhance patient safety, improve care and provider decision-making, and drive better health outcomes. As health care delivery extends beyond the walls of hospitals, understanding the different product design and development challenges for Internet of Things in health care is vital for a successful launch.

In times like these, we asked ourselves, "what can we do to help?" Enter Cardinal Peak's engineering expertise. This post highlights our efforts to help Columbia University develop CovidWatcher, an application that surveys users about their exposure, symptoms, access to medical care, and how the coronavirus and restrictions are impacting their daily life.

Disease testing isn't perfect. Illustrating how the prevalence of a disease, including COVID-19, can be estimated using an imperfect test and how probability depends on the prevalence, this blog highlights how a single test result should only be one piece of information used in determining an individual's infection status.

Cardinal Peak works with a range of medical devices and technologies and is increasingly engaged in IoT initiatives for major health care companies. We have built ultrasound systems, surgical device energy generators, Fitbit-like health monitors, medical information memory cards, and RFID tagging systems for configuring and tracking medical devices.

One of my partners pointed this Slate article out to me about healthcare.gov. It is clear at this point that there have been a ton of embarrassing problems with the rollout of this site. I don’t want to get into the politics of health care, but I do find it interesting to look at what... View Article
