Cellular blood pressure
Daily systolic, diastolic, and pulse. The default device for hypertension and most heart-failure kits.
RPM for cardiology
See the week between the echo and the next titration.
TOCA puts cellular blood pressure, weight, and oxygen in the home so heart failure and hypertension are visible between visits. A rising weight or uncontrolled pressure is escalated for a diuretic change or a blood pressure medication change before the next crisis.
Clinical use cases
Where cardiology gains the most.
Heart failure
Daily cellular weight plus blood pressure. A two-to-three pound jump or a clustered high systolic reading prompts a same-day call and a summarized strip so you can adjust the diuretic while the patient is still at home.
Hypertension
Out-of-office readings that actually arrive. Titration rests on a month of home systolic and diastolic pressure, not a single clinic number, and uncontrolled readings lead to a blood pressure medication adjustment.
Cardiometabolic disease
Cellular glucose plus blood pressure when diabetes travels with coronary disease or heart failure. CCM coordinates the other clinicians. PCM stays with cardiology when the cardiac diagnosis is the one you own.
The first 30 days
After discharge or a procedure, shorter device windows still run on cellular hardware. The patient does not need a home network to stay visible.
Cardiology workflow
From enrollment to a tighter dry weight.
01
Identify heart failure, hypertension, and cardiometabolic patients and write the order.
02
Ship a cellular blood pressure cuff and scale, adding pulse oximetry when hypoxia is part of the picture.
03
Watch weight change and systolic bands against ACC and AHA thresholds you approve.
04
The RN calls on a gain or a high-pressure cluster and escalates a seven-day strip for a diuretic or blood pressure medication change.
Devices
Tenovi cellular hardware for the service line.
Cellular scale
The early-warning device. Sudden gain routes to a diuretic decision the same day.
Cellular pulse oximeter
Added when hypoxia or pulmonary overlap changes the risk picture.
Answered directly.
How does remote monitoring help a heart failure clinic?
A cellular scale and blood pressure cuff transmit daily. A weight gain or a run of high systolic readings triggers same-day outreach so the cardiologist can adjust the diuretic or the blood pressure medication before the patient returns in fluid overload.
Do cardiology patients need Wi-Fi to use TOCA devices?
No. TOCA ships Tenovi direct-cellular devices. There is no Bluetooth pairing and no home router to join.
Should a cardiology practice bill CCM or PCM?
PCM fits when heart failure or resistant hypertension is the single condition the specialist owns. CCM fits when two or more chronic conditions are being coordinated. RPM device and management codes can accompany either when the monitoring work is distinct.
