Continuous monitoring for post-acute & senior care

Beyond Vitals.
Beyond Alarms.

Q-Life is a continuous monitoring platform that streams low-latency physiological data from patient to cloud — giving healthcare teams the early information they need to act, not react.*

  • Six vital signs, one chest-worn sensor
  • Low-latency sync from patient to cloud
  • Built to meet HIPAA requirements

Why it matters

The Cost of Not Knowing

In post-acute and senior care, the most dangerous moment is the one before a clinical event — when early warning signs are present but go undetected.

A typical shift

Hours between checks
Scheduled checkNext scheduled check

Continuous monitoring gives care teams visibility into patient changes between scheduled checks.

Falls

Often preceded by subtle gait changes and sleep disruption.

Infection

Sustained temperature elevation and activity changes can flag the need for clinical follow-up.

Cardiopulmonary Decline

Shifts in heart rate and respiration patterns can flag the need for clinical follow-up.

Social Engagement

Measuring human interaction when engaged in conversation for a social activity index.

The device

One Sensor. A Complete Picture of Well-Being.

The Q-GAM is a wearable sensor worn on the chest that continuously tracks six key health indicators — giving care teams a complete picture of each patient's well-being around the clock.

How it works

From Patient to Provider with Low Latency

Four steps carry each reading from the patient's chest to the care team's screen.

  1. 01
    Q-GAM sensor

    Wear

    Patient wears the Q-GAM sensor on the chest. It continuously captures heart rate, respiration, temperature, gait, sleep, and social engagement.

  2. 02
    Q-Connect app

    Sync

    The Q-Connect mobile app wirelessly connects to the sensor, collects data, and securely uploads it to the cloud.

  3. 03
    Secure cloud

    Store

    All patient data is securely saved in the cloud so healthcare providers can access it anytime — built to meet HIPAA requirements.

  4. 04
    Clinical dashboard

    Report

    Healthcare providers view patient reports on the dashboard, receive smart alarms, and track health trends over time.

Smart alarms

Smart Alarms. Instant Clarity.

Q-Life automatically monitors vital thresholds and notifies care teams that something needs attention.

  • Patient Vitals

    Routine patient information, device battery, and connectivity status

  • Alarm

    Vitals trending outside normal range, requires monitoring and clinical follow-up

  • Visibility between checks

    Alarms give care teams visibility into patient changes between scheduled checks.

  • Where alarms appear

    Per-patient alarm banners and alarm counts on the clinical dashboard, with indicators in the patient registry.

  • Not for critical care

    Q-Life is a prescription-use device and is not intended for critical care. Clinical follow-up remains with the care team.
