Adelaide-based patient pathways software vendor Personify Care has partnered with Propell Health, distributors of iHealth devices in Australia, to integrate its system with wireless pulse oximeters to support virtual models of care for COVID-19 patients isolating at home.

Pulse oximeters are soon to be subsidised by the Australian government to allow GPs to monitor patients in the community, but they are also commonly used for remote monitoring and hospital in the home programs by hospitals and public health services.
