CVm-Health™ is a free, easy to use web-based app that provides a secure way for individuals and families, sick or well, to record their health status and medications to support the management of their health during the pandemic.

The app can also be used to monitor the health of the digitally disconnected – those without basic digital skills or with no access to the internet.

FAQs

What is CVm-Health?

CVm-Health is a free, easy to use application developed to be used remotely as a coronavirus health monitor by the general public. It provides a secure way for people, sick or well, to monitor their vital signs, coronavirus symptoms and general health.

A unique aspect of CVm-Health is the ability to record someone else’s symptoms and vital signs, not just the person who is the registered user of the app, meaning everyone can help a family member or loved one monitor their health during the pandemic.

People can volunteer, from their laptop on their sofa or at a safe distance in their neighborhood to help look after those most vulnerable and in most need of care in society. It is also possible for the health information from these vulnerable individuals to be made easy to review and assess, if they need assistance from healthcare professionals.

And in the long run, the data on the app can help clinicians and medical scientists better understand the disease and mitigate its effects.

How will the app help me?

The app will allow you to safely monitor your vital signs and symptoms from the comfort of your own home supporting guidelines for social distancing and potentially reducing visits to local physicians.

In addition, you will be able to monitor vital signs and symptoms on behalf of a loved one or family member providing reassurance and support to them during the pandemic.

If you have the virus, you will be able to understand whether you are improving or deteriorating.

How does the app work?

Upon registration, you are asked to answer a few general health questions to create your personal profile. Details that you’ll need to fill in include date of birth, postcode, ethnicity, comorbidities, other risk factors and medication that you might be currently taking (or have previously taken).

You will also be able to register someone else in the app and will be asked to enter the same details on their behalf.

You will then be prompted to record any COVID-19 symptoms (applicable if ill) including your temperature. Once you’ve recorded any symptoms you will be asked to record medications, enter vital sign readings and your COVID-19 status.

Even if you are well, we recommend to log in to the app daily to document your good health, and if ill, to record your symptoms and vital signs.

What symptoms and vital signs can be monitored on the app?

This monitoring tool can record vital signs including: temperature, blood pressure, O2 saturation and heart rate. It can also record symptoms including: cough, fever, breathing difficulties, reduced activity levels, fatigue, and loss of smell/taste.

Will the app have access to my past medical history? Will doctors have access to the data stored in the app?

In the future, we plan to link personal profiles to electronic patient records (EPR) which will allow clinicians to have a better view of a patient’s overall health condition and provide advice around treatment based on previous illnesses/medications.

What type of device is needed in order to use the app?

Unlike some coronavirus health apps, CVm-Health users do not need to download an app from the Apple and Google Play stores, but can access the app via any web browser using smartphone, tablet device or PC at www.cvm-health.com

Users will need to be connected to the internet in order to have access to the application.

Is this service free?

Yes. Once registered, anyone over the age of 18 can use the service free of charge.

Can the app be used to monitor children’s health?

Yes. Users of the app must be aged 18 or over, however once registered the app can be used to monitor anyone’s health, regardless of their age. For example, a parent can monitor their children’s health.

Can the app be used to monitor people overseas?

Currently the app can only be used by people living in the US and UK.

Where is the information stored?

We store all personal data, including name and date of birth, as well as health data, on secure servers located in the US. Keep the password you create when registering to the app confidential and do not share this with anyone else.

Is personal information shared? If so, who has access to it?

Individuals using the app will be able to control whether or not data is shared with third party healthcare professionals or pharmaceutical researchers. For individuals that do grant access, their data will be de-identified before being made available for medical or pharmaceutical research. CVm-Health does not record an individual’s location or track people in any way and no identifiable patient data is shared with any entity.

What does de-identified information mean?

De-identified information is defined under the HIPAA privacy rule as the process by which the removal of specified identifiers of the individual and of the individual’s relatives, household members is required, and is adequate only if the covered entity has no actual knowledge that the remaining information could be used to identify the individual.

How does the data recorded in the app help to fight this pandemic?

The app provides a secure way for individuals and families, sick or well, to monitor and support the management of their health for any COVID-19 related symptoms. It is hoped the provision of the app will encourage individuals to ‘be a good neighbor’ by helping remotely care for the digitally disconnected, those with poor technology literacy or without access to the internet.

It is intended that the data on the app will be used to help clinicians and medical scientists better understand the disease and to speed up the development of medicines. All data will be de-identified before being shared for medical or pharmaceutical research.

What should I do if symptoms worsen?

The CVm-Health App (including any content supplied within the CVm-Health App) is not intended to provide clinical advice or be used in place of the advice of medical professionals.

For any health-related issues or questions during your use of the CVm-Health App or otherwise, please contact your healthcare provider and local health department.

Can I change my personal details after registering to the app?

Currently we do not offer the ability to change personal details. However, we are working on this functionality at the moment. If you want to delete your data, you can do so as per our Privacy Policy.

The use of CVm-Health is subject to terms and conditions and support for the app is currently restricted to US and UK users only.

Note: Not all Sensyne Health products are available in all territories, for further information contact head office.
