RPM holds great promise for the future of health care. As for the future goals of RPM, it is hoped to help expand and manage chronic diseases. Continuously monitoring patients with diabetes, heart disease, etc., will enable providers to enable a precise medical plan of action and lifestyle to help improve that patient's overall health. A big vision for RPM is the benefit it is set to bring to pediatric care. RPM will allow parents and healthcare professionals to remotely monitor children's growth, development, and health. This will be particularly beneficial for infants and children who are premature or have a chronic condition.
As technology advances throughout the years, RPM is said to play an essential role in the future of Healthcare; the advancement of RPM will allow the healthcare system to analyze large amounts of patient data, predict health trends, and provide helpful insights for clinicians.
In the future of RPM, we see the task of wearable and implantable devices. These devices will continuously monitor the entire health spectrum of a patient. There are plans for these types of devices to become small, comfortable, and suitable for everyday lives to provide insight into real-time health data to both patients and healthcare providers. As mentioned by the Mayo Clinic platform in their article, The Future Belongs to Remote Patient Monitoring they say "By one estimate, 30 million Americans will be using remote patient monitoring (RPM) devices by 2024. By 2027, the global RPM market will reach $1.7 billion" (Halamka, 2023). RPM devices are a growing trend in Healthcare that will soon take over and will help a wide range of people.
