Whether it’s checking their temperature daily before leaving the house or tracking their blood pressure to avoid a trip to the doctor’s office, we’ve seen people start to use connected health devices more at home than before the pandemic. Long-term, I think this trend of remote patient monitoring and people using connected devices to track their health outside of the doctor’s office will continue. This will help people identify issues early and better understand their daily health levels, which is valuable to both patients and their physicians.

What are your plans for Withings? We plan to continue to bring clinically-

validated monitoring capabilities to simpleto-use devices. Our customers can expect range. Additionally, we plan to expand our work with medical professionals, researchers and institutions to make sure that they have access to helpful insights that allow them to make real improvements for healthcare around the world. ●
