SohoMD, an online mental health platform focusing on comprehensive biological psychiatry, has partnered with Withings Health Solutions, the healthcare division of Withings, a global leader in at-home connected health.
In a first-of-its-kind collaboration, SohoMD's patients opting for holistic treatment plans can purchase Withings Body Pro scales and BPM Connect Pro blood pressure and heart rate monitors. These devices seamlessly integrate with the Withings Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) platform and securely share collected data with SohoMD's e-MD patient portal.
The partnership aims to enhance mental healthcare by incorporating physical health monitoring, recognising the interplay between mental and physical well-being.
The initiative addresses challenges associated with monitoring patients' weight fluctuations and their blood pressure, especially in online mental health treatment, where in-person observations are limited. The partnership aligns with the missions of both organisations, with SohoMD emphasising a functional medicine approach to mental health and Withings Health Solutions offering remote patient monitoring tools and medical devices for continuous data access.
By combining mental and physical health monitoring, this partnership aims to provide more individualised and holistic mental healthcare, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Antoine Robiliard, Vice President of Withings Health Solutions, highlights the value of remote patient monitoring in enhancing both mental and physical health.
