The UA-851THW Wireless Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor was not the only Wellness Connected product to be recognized at NACDS. On the last day of the show the XL-20 Wireless Activity Monitor was awarded category winner for Home Healthcare in the NACDS Marketplace Product Showcase. It joined fellow winners Maybelline, Bayer HealthCare, and the Dial Corporation in this top ranking.
NACDS is deemed the largest and most powerful convergence of drug, food, mass, club, and value retailing in the United States. This year's conference was held in Boston, MA June 28 through July 1 and represented over 780 buyers from 145,000 retail outlets. It brought together the leaders in innovation for the healthcare industry, and heralded the Wellness Connected family of products.
Wellness Connected is a dramatic change to health monitoring. The technology, while extremely advanced, is very user-friendly and intuitive to use. As the name implies, through software and medical devices, users can wirelessly connect to their health readings. Blood pressure, weight, and physical activity are uploaded in real-time, making tracking and analysis easy. Data viewing is customizable and can be shown in colorful graphs and charts that will print on any printer.
Wellness Connected products are available at many online retailers, pharmacies, and home healthcare providers.
