Masimo, Royal Philips expand RPM partnership

IRVINE, Calif. and ANDOVER, Mass. – Masimo and Royal Philips have announced an expansion of their partnership to augment remote patient monitoring capabilities in home telehealth applications with the Masimo W1 advanced health tracking watch.  

“Expanding our partnership with Philips in this way is a win-win for patients and clinicians everywhere and is an important part of our multi-year plan to bring the best of hospital monitoring to the home, while continuing to improve access to quality hospital care,” said Bilal Muhsin, COO of Masimo Healthcare. 

The W1 will integrate with Philips’s enterprise patient monitoring ecosystem to advance the forefront of telemonitoring and telehealth. The combined innovation, which draws upon the expertise of both companies in monitoring, connectivity and automation, will be highlighted later this month at Arab Health 2023. 

Masimo W1 offers accurate, continuous pulse oximetry measurements and other insightful health data. Using Masimo’s secure health data cloud, it will relay patient information to the Philips patient monitoring ecosystem for remote clinician surveillance.  

“At Philips, we believe in an open ecosystem of information that enables physicians in their daily routine, allows for them to access and process vital patient information and deploy a wide range of measurements and patient-worn technologies,” said Christoph Pedain, general manager, Hospital Patient Monitoring at Philips. “Our integration of the latest Masimo technologies is a testament to that strategy, and we are delighted to deepen our relationship with Masimo.” 

Masimo W1 for use in medical applications is CE marked and is pending clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
