Clinical Data for Automatic Patient Monitoring
VitalFriend's ongoing healthcare monitoring platform combines scheduled blood pressure measurements, heart rate, SpO₂, temperature, sleep, activity, and threshold-based notifications to provide 24/7 visibility into patient health.
Our FDA-cleared Vital Buddy wearable provides data that helps physicians stay informed between visits, engage patients, and supports RPM/RTM programs.

Healthcare is Moving from Episodic to Ongoing Care
Vitals monitoring hasn't changed materially in decades. Patients have to visit doctors offices and/or use bulky, single-purpose devices to take vitals, intermittently. Physicians currently make decisions based on:
- Office vitals
- Occasional home measurements
- Patient recall (“I think my BP was high”)
The problem: Most disease progression happens between visits. Hypertension, CHF, diabetes, post-op deterioration, anxiety, medication non-adherence, sleep dysfunction, and cardiometabolic decline all evolve outside the clinic.
Vital Buddy Closes the Gap Between Visits
Spot checks
Only 2-3 data points per week
Limitations:

1,440 data points per day — Ongoing 24/7 monitoring
Key Benefits:
Most Monitoring Solutions Create Noise,
Friction, or Poor Adherence
Vital Buddy is designed to be comfortable and convenient to use every day. It's also an FDA-cleared monitoring device that provides relevant vital-sign data streams to care teams throughout the day and night, designed to make routine vital signs monitoring accessible to a broad population of patients.
Vital Buddy Delivers ongoing Vital-Sign Data from Automatically Scheduled Measurements
Vital Buddy captures physiologic measurements at optimized intervals, producing clear, actionable trends physicians and caregivers can meaningfully use. This is especially important for:
- Hypertension
- Congestive Heart Failure
- Cardiometabolic disease
- Post-discharge monitoring
- BP and HR medication titration
- Sleep and activity monitoring
- Concierge & functional medicine
Clinical differentiation:
Oscillometric BP (major differentiator) vs many cuffless estimation approaches.
Holistic Picture of Health
Beyond vitals, Vital Buddy encourages healthier habits with automated hydration and medication reminders, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. Vital Buddy collects more than 1,000 data points per day.

Real words from the people who use it every day
My mom has been wearing her Vital Buddy for almost a year now. It takes her blood pressure every 4 hours every day. She tracks her BP and records her stats. If her BP is high, she tells me and then she initiates her relaxation techniques. We retake her blood pressure in 15 mins and it is always much lower.
