UC Davis Health is partnering with digital health company Propeller Health to provide patients, suffering from asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, with a new remote monitoring program that can provide personalized treatments.

Under the partnership, the Sacramento, Calif.-based health system will use Propeller’s remote monitoring program to provide patients with sensors that attach to inhalers to gather event-recording signals such as inhaler use and respiration patterns. 

This data will then be integrated into the health system’s EHR system, according to a March 27 release from UC Davis Health. With this integration, clinicians will be able to monitor a patient’s daily usage of their inhalers, as well as assess the medications they are using to keep their lungs functioning. 

UC Davis Health said the program may be expanded to include other University of California health systems.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
