Remote Patient Monitoring in IBD: Current State and Future Directions.

Purpose Of Review: Mobile apps are now increasingly used in conjunction with telemedicine and wearable devices to support remote patient monitoring (RPM). The goal of this paper is to review the available evidence and assess the scope of RPM integration into standard practices for care and management of chronic disease in general and, more specifically, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Recent Findings: RPM has been associated with improvements in health outcomes and indicators across a broad range of chronic diseases.
