People wearing this monitoring device can move freely without any location restrictions. In August 2023, GE Healthcare received FDA approval for the Portrait Mobile and 510(k) approval for its Carescape Canvas patient monitoring platform.
• In April 2021, Oxehealth Service won FDA approval for its vital sign software, which can monitor heart rate and breathing with an overhead camera attached to the device. The product is suitable for end users in nursing homes and long-term care facilities.
• In January 2020, BioIntelliSense, Inc. announced the commercial launch of its Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform. It also announced receiving FDA 510(k) clearance for its BioSticker, an on-body sensor for remote care devices. Further, in July 2020, BioIntelliSense, Inc. collaborated with Royal Philips to integrate BioSticker into Philips’s remote patient monitoring devices.

On the other hand, the recall rate of vital signs monitoring devices has increased in recent years. A few major players in the vital signs monitoring devices market have executed product recalls in the last several years. Regulatory authorities have raised concerns about product recalls showcasing players' shortcomings and affecting their brand image. Thus, product recalls by companies and regulatory authorities are hindering the growth of the vital signs monitoring devices market.
