The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system offers a comprehensive solution for contemporary cardiac monitoring, addressing traditional limitations and providing significant benefits for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and large-scale service providers. Its core component, the UbiqVue 1AXe Biosensor, is a single-use, two-channel EKG/ECG Biosensor that provides continuous monitoring for up to 7 days (US 5 days). This wireless system allows patients to maintain normal daily activities while delivering high-quality ECG data for reliable arrhythmia diagnosis. Built on a scalable, cloud-based platform, it accommodates unlimited patient capacity and offers flexible data upload options.

The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system overcomes many of the current barriers OEMs and large-scale Service Providers face when looking to expand their products and services to their clients or patients, including the full development lifecycle:

Development Costs for Cardiac Holter Monitor Devices

Developing a new wireless cardiac holter monitor devices with clinical accuracy from scratch involves substantial investment in research, development, and testing. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system offers a pre-built, scalable, cloud-based solution that can be readily integrated into existing systems. This reduces the need for extensive development efforts and associated costs. By leveraging the UbiqVue system, OEMs can focus their resources on other critical aspects of product development and market strategy.

Regulatory Hurdles For Holter Monitor Devices

One of the most significant barriers for OEMs is obtaining the necessary regulatory clearances and certifications, which can be time-consuming and costly. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system addresses this challenge by coming equipped with essential certifications, including HIPAA, FDA (510K), CE, UKCA and many more. These pre-existing certifications significantly reduce regulatory clearance delays, allowing for faster deployment in global territories. This means that OEMs can expand their product range more swiftly without the prolonged process of obtaining these certifications independently.

Time to Market For Holter ECG Monitor Devices

Speed to market is crucial in the competitive medical device industry. Developing new cardiac technology in-house can significantly delay product launch. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system expedites time to market by providing a ready-to-integrate solution. Its scalable, cloud-based platform and LifeSignals’ technical team support ensure a smooth and rapid integration process, enabling OEMs to bring their products to market faster.

Technical Complexity in Holter Monitoring

Creating single-use wireless Biosensor technology with continuous ECG collection and multi-transmission capabilities is technically challenging. The UbiqVue 1AXe Biosensor, a single-use, two-channel Holter EKG/ECG monitoring device, is designed to provide continuous cardiac monitoring for up to seven days (US 5 five days). This wireless design allows patients to shower, sleep, and exercise without interruption, significantly improving comfort and compliance. According to local regulations, once the procedure is completed, the Biosensor is simply recycled or disposed of. By offering this advanced Biosensor technology, the UbiqVue system eliminates the need for OEMs to develop their own, simplifying the technical complexity of product development.

Data Security and Privacy in Cardiac Holter Monitor Devices

Ensuring compliance with data protection regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR can be complex and demanding. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system is designed with robust data quality, privacy, and security measures, including encrypted data transfer and secure storage with AWS local servers. This compliance with international data protection standards ensures that patient data is handled securely, alleviating concerns for OEMs and facilitating smoother adoption in various regions.

Integration Challenges

Incorporating ECG waveform data from new devices into existing systems can be difficult, unreliable, and time-consuming. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system addresses this by enabling the auto-download of waveform data files supplied in an EDF or JSON format, providing APIs for system integration, or supported by LifeSignals’ technical team. This support ensures that the integration process is efficient and seamless, allowing OEMs to incorporate the UbiqVue technology into their systems with minimal disruption.

Ensuring Clinical-Grade Accuracy

Achieving and proving clinical-grade accuracy for arrhythmia diagnosis is crucial but challenging. The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system delivers high-quality, multi-channel ECG data, ensuring reliable arrhythmia diagnosis. This level of accuracy is essential for clinicians to make informed decisions about patient care, and the UbiqVue system’s proven reliability and usability meet international regulatory requirements.

Patient Comfort and Compliance

It is challenging to design a device that patients will wear consistently for extended periods without disrupting daily activities. The UbiqVue 1AXe Biosensor addresses this by offering a comfortable, water-resistant design that allows for normal activities, including exercising, showering, and sleeping. This high level of comfort and convenience ensures greater patient compliance, which is critical for accurate and reliable data collection.

Conclusion

The UbiqVue Holter Integrate system and the UbiqVue 1AXe Biosensor offer comprehensive solutions to the main barriers OEMs face in introducing wearable Holter devices into ambulatory cardiac monitoring systems. By addressing regulatory hurdles, reducing development costs, expediting time to market, simplifying technical complexity, ensuring data security and privacy, facilitating integration, delivering clinical-grade accuracy, and enhancing patient comfort and compliance, these innovative technologies streamline the process for OEMs and enhance the overall functionality of cardiac monitoring systems.

For OEM medical device manufacturers and large Holter service providers, the UbiqVue system presents an opportunity to stay at the forefront of cardiac monitoring technology. Its scalable, cloud-based platform and international certifications make it an attractive option for those looking to expand their services and improve patient outcomes. As the global cardiac monitoring market grows, solutions such as the UbiqVue Holter Integrate system will play a crucial role in improving the diagnosis and management of cardiac arrhythmias, ultimately leading to better patient care and outcomes.
