The rise of telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic removed many long-standing barriers to virtual care. But video calls alone are no longer enough. Today’s patients and healthcare providers need virtual tools that offer real clinical value without added complexity. Enter the Informed Vital Core (IVC) App from Mindset Medical, a contactless solution that transforms smartphones, tablets, or laptops into vital sign monitors.
IVC uses remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) to measure respiratory rate through a device’s built-in camera. The technology detects minute changes in facial skin color caused by blood flow, converting them into real-time physiological data. A neural network divides the face into multiple measurement zones, delivering fast, accurate readings without physical contact or external hardware.
This FDA-cleared app integrates seamlessly into digital health platforms and can be embedded into any mobile application. With its API-based design, it allows for flexible deployment across clinical, home, and remote care settings. IVC not only enhances patient engagement but also enables clinicians to make timely interventions, improving outcomes and reducing system strain.
Mindset Medical is pioneering a future where standard consumer devices provide clinical insights, helping bridge healthcare access gaps and making virtual care more effective than ever.
