Zomedica Corp. announced that in cooperation with Structured Monitoring Products, Inc., it will begin commercializing the revolutionary VetGuardian® zero-touch vital signs remote monitoring system for veterinary professionals. The VetGuardian system is the first and only system for the companion animal market that enables contact-free, continuous monitoring of pets' vital signs, including temperature, pulse, and respiration ("TPR").

With its patented doppler technology, the VetGuardian monitor can capture vital signs in real time without harnesses or wired leads on the pet, thus allowing pet patients to rest comfortably during recovery at veterinary facilities. The system is easily set up by clinic staff and connected to the cloud using a smartphone app, after which monitoring of multiple monitors on a single screen is enabled by connecting to the myZomedica® web portal. Veterinarians receive real-time notifications should the vital signs fall outside their customizable range, and they can remotely observe patient data from anywhere via a smart device.
