Optimal Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) management requires detection of increasing cardiac filling pressures. Current alternatives require a surgical implantable device and are expensive. JVPLabs enables physicians to monitor increasing cardiac pressures using a non-invasive medical device that accurately measures the Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP). We have automated the current standard of care by simplifying the complex, time-consuming, and inaccurate task of JVP assessment. Monitoring the JVP height is the cornerstone for in-hospital management of CHF as it enables medication adjustment, discharge planning, and nutritional recommendations. JVP assessment requires a physician at the bedside and unfortunately, is not available in the home – the very place it is most needed to keep patients feeling well and out of the hospital. The JVPHome (research use only) is a comprehensive remote patient monitoring device that provides automated and non-invasive monitoring of right-sided cardiac pressure.
