This week’s Smart Health roundup features a new personalized nutrition system, an app that follows up on patients after they leave the hospital, and a second generation sports tracker.

Nourish makes personalized pills

FitNatic, Inc. launched Nourish on Indiegogo today. Nourish is a Wi-Fi-enabled touchscreen countertop appliance that mixes the precise blend of supplements and vitamins based on a user’s fitness, nutrition and sleep data to dispense a personalized blend of powdered nutrients, vitamins, herbs and minerals.

Nourish holds 16 seeds that are single dietary supplements in a container on top of the device, and each seed holds approximately one month’s supply of either a nutrient, mineral, vitamin or herb. What makes this system even smarter is that the seeds are RFID-enabled, so when the supplement is running low, it will automatically order a refill and be shipped to the user’s home.

Nourish taps into the data gathered by fitness trackers (it is compatible with most popular brands) to be able to come up with the perfect blend. The dispensed powder can then be poured into the user’s preferred beverage.

You can help fund Nourish on Indiegogo for $399 to be one of the first to get this smart nutrition system.

RightCare Touch connects patients and hospitals

RightCare Solutions, Inc. launched a new app called RightCare Touch that aims to cut readmissions and improve care after the patient returns home from the hospital. The RightCare Touch app is designed to make it easier for healthcare staff to stay in touch with patients after they go home to ensure that they recover properly with their personalized care plan, to prevent unnecessary post-acute care services and readmissions.

RightCare Touch connects hospitals, payors, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and post-acute care providers to better engage with patients through daily contact. The feedback gathered from the patients is used to by hospitals and ACOs to identify if patients need to go to the emergency department, uncover which patients who are failing their at-home treatments, and alert clinicians to engage the patient so unnecessary trips to the emergency department can be avoided.

The app allows the healthcare team to create custom checklists of four or five questions for each patient that may include questions such as medication taken, drowsiness and sleep quality, daily weight and more, which can be answered by the patient via phone, text, computer or video. RightCare Touch then gathers the patient’s answers into heat maps that alert the hospital to potential problems at a glance.

Patients without a smartphone will still be able to benefit from this, as the questions can be delivered via interactive voice response to their home phone or mobile phone via RightCare Touch’s automated text or calls. Smart health devices, such as wearable trackers and Wi-Fi-connected scales, can send data directly to to the app.

The RightCare Touch app is now available for iOS and will soon be available for Android.
