REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct 26, 2022 (ACCESSWIRE) — Biotricity Inc. (NASDAQ:BTCY) (“Biotricity” or the “Company”), a medical diagnostic and consumer healthcare technology company, today announced the U.S. launch of Biocare Cardiac. The national roll-out follows two successful pilot programs in Oklahoma City with CardioVascular Health Clinic, a medical facility providing high-quality cardiovascular care to more than 40,000 patients, and a four-month pilot with Lexington Heart Specialists in Kentucky, a medical practice providing high-quality cardiovascular care to more than 20,000 patients.
Designed to expand Biotricity’s existing remote monitoring tools used today by more than 2,000 cardiologists nationwide, the easy-to-use solution puts actionable data at the physicians’ fingertips to assist them in making treatment decisions quickly.
Biocare Cardiac combines chronic care management, remote patient monitoring, cardiac diagnostics, lifestyle management, bi-directional communication, and telemedicine to help engage and manage patients better. Patients receive digital tools based on their condition(s) to help them manage their health and lifestyle following physician recommendations. Patients are given a combination of Biotricity’s suite of monitoring devices which are integrated with a care plan and delivered via the Biocare Cardiac app. Physicians receive monthly reports on patient trends and customized alerts for out-of-range data, enabling them to intervene if necessary.

Marcus Smith, M.D., one of the pilot project leaders at CardioVascular Health Clinic, commented, “CV Health integrated the Biocare Cardiac platform as part of our commitment to continued, ongoing care for patients. This platform technology integrates with diagnostic devices and telemedicine providing peace of mind for the patient. Importantly, it engaged patients, while providing bi-directional communication and ongoing monthly reporting that allows our practice to identify those who may need additional care, leading to better outcomes.”
Dr. Hal Skinner, of Lexington Heart Specialists, spoke about the benefits for his patients after enrollment in the program, “We had patients driving hours for appointments with our doctors. The ability to enroll these patients in the Biocare Cardiac platform and monitor them with Bioheart and Biokit has changed dramatically how we manage their health. This improves their quality of life and gives everyone caring for them peace of mind. If we see something concerning a patient report, we immediately request that a patient come in for further assessment. We have already changed medications and adjusted treatment management after reviewing patients’ data.”
