Proteus Digital Health

Proteus Digital Health says its Discover is the world's first digital medicine service. Discover tracks when patients take their pills by following sensors that are actually on the medication.

The patient activates Discover by taking medication with the ingestible sensor. Once the sensor reaches the stomach, it transmits a signal to the patch, worn around the patient's torso. The patch then sends digital records to the mobile device and to the Proteus cloud, so health-care providers and caregivers can access it. With Discover, doctors can track patient health patterns and medication treatment effectiveness.
