Biospectal and Amref Health Africa, the largest health NGO in Africa, today announced the launch of a Mobile Remote Patient Monitoring (MRPM) hypertension management pilot program in Kibera (Nairobi), Kenya, the largest informal settlement in Africa. The first-of-its-kind partnership will enable Biospectal to build upon the four independent World Health Organization validation studies it currently has in progress in South Africa, Tanzania, Bangladesh and Indonesia, and to scale the impact of Biospectal’s OptiBP™ smartphone-based, blood pressure solution across Africa.
