In this article you can learn all about integrating Caretaker devices with your OptiMantra Account.




What is Caretaker VitalStream?


Caretaker Medical® is a MedTech company founded in March 2014 out of Charlottesville, Virginia. They specalize in  wearable monitoring devices.


VitalStream is an FDA cleared wearable that monitors continuous and noninvasive blood pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume and advanced cardiovascular measurements. VitalStream uses a finger cuff (low pressure finger sensor) to accurately measure these elements. 


Data captured by VitalStream is displayed on a tablet using the Caretaker application. 


Now, that same data can be added straight into your OptiMantra chart note for tracking centrally.
