How you may use the app

Your doctor is using VISO dashboard (the ‘Dashboard’) and has invited you to use the App, which is an approved Class II-a medical device. In particular, you will be asked to enter self-measured health data such as blood pressure, weight, lung function, heart rhythm data, respectively, in the App. Said data, in combination with the data entered by your doctor in the Dashboard (with may include your Electronic Medical Records), will allow the App to suggest to your doctor decisions regarding your medication plan. The App is connected to your Electronic Medical Records. Those decisions are based on OMRON’s patient management algorithm and will be shared with your doctor in the Dashboard as specific actions that your doctor can follow.


The App enables you to receive medication reminders, measurement reminders and alerts when your doctor recommends to change medication or change the medication plan. On top of this, you will be able to provide certain information and feedback to your doctor through the App.

Always consult your doctor or other healthcare professional with any questions regarding your medical condition. If you manually enter measurement data, you are solely responsible for the correctness of such data.
