Designing and making medical devices can be a challenging way to earn a living. Medtech manufacturers operate in a complex and ever-changing regulatory environment. Complicated reimbursement rules can make payment lengthy, risky and difficult. Medical device design often requires the integration of multiple technical and clinical disciplines.

Infant Monitoring in the Hospital and Home provides clinical value to healthcare providers. Monitoring enables the diagnosis and management of at-risk vulnerable infants to provide better outcomes. Monitoring also improves the quality of life for a pre-term infant by enabling the baby to go home earlier, and peace of mind for their family, knowing that their baby will not suffer from undetected life threatening events while lowering the cost of care by providing a low cost alternative to hospital care, enabling earlier NICU discharge.

Frequent trips to patient homes for data retrieval from SmartMonitor devices cost time and money... our Waveform Access Program helps you save both.

Waveform Access is a multi-phase program designed to help healthcare professionals gain better access to their patients’ data collected with SmartMonitor units. Circadiance has developed each phase with our customers in mind to ensure our products are able to not only keep up with the demands of modern care practices, but also take professionals a step further by improving care.
