Transforming Pregnancy Care: Discussion on INVU by Nuvo™

January 15, 2025

Nuvo™, an innovative healthcare company, is on a mission to revolutionize pregnancy care. The flagship product aims to empower pregnant women through remote monitoring– providing convenience and peace of mind to the moms and actionable insights for their care team.

Recently, Dr. Richard Broth, a renowned perinatologist and INVU by Nuvo™ prescribing physician, and Maggie Ockay, a Nuvo™ Customer Care Specialist,  sat down to dive deeper into their journey with Nuvo™, the challenges faced, and the impact that the groundbreaking device has on pregnancies worldwide.

About Nuvo™ and the INVU system

Nuvo’s mission is to transform pregnancy care by moving from the traditional, facility-based monitoring to remote monitoring with data-driven insights. The INVU system allows moms to monitor their pregnancy from the comfort of home, work, or even vacation. 

Here’s how it works:

  1. Data Collection: The INVU sensor band captures vital data without a clinician physically present.
  2. Cloud Processing: Data is analyzed in the cloud.
  3. Digital Tools: Insights are provided to both moms and clinicians through a mobile application and provider dashboard.
  4. Convenience and Peace of Mind: The system is prescription-initiated, enabling seamless integration into a care protocol for a patient, wherever the patient may be.

The INVU app allows moms to track their baby’s heart rate, hear a snippet of the heartbeat, and communicate with providers, creating a virtual in-office experience.

Dialogue with the Doctor

1. What are the exact checkups that can be performed with the belt?

Dr. Broth: The belt replicates an in-office non-stress test. It’s ideal for advanced maternal age, diabetes, high blood pressure, and other conditions. The data collected helps clinicians make actionable decisions remotely.

Guest Comment: “It’s reassuring to know that this device can help with high-risk pregnancies like mine!” said a participant in the forum.

2. Who decides when a remote checkup is done? Can patients decide?

Dr. Broth: Scheduling is a collaborative decision between the patient and physician. Most protocols suggest weekly monitoring, but schedules can be customized based on the patient’s needs.

Guest Comment: “I appreciate that it’s a team decision. It feels empowering to have input on my care schedule,” shared Lisa, an expectant mother.

3. What happens if I’m nervous about decreased fetal movement in the middle of the night?

Dr. Broth: With INVU, you can contact your on-call physician, who may initiate a remote session. This often saves a trip to the hospital and provides reassurance from the comfort of home.

Guest Comment: “This is exactly what I need. I’ve had too many sleepless nights wondering if I should go to the hospital,” commented Megan, a first-time mom.

4. Is there an option for self-monitoring?

Dr. Broth: No. The device is designed for clinical use under physician oversight to ensure medical safety. Patients cannot use it independently like a home doppler.

Guest Comment: “It’s good to know the boundaries. Safety first!” remarked a forum attendee.

A Patient’s Perspective

The forum included a testimonial from Alexis, a former patient. She highlighted the convenience of remote monitoring with INVU by Nuvo™, which allowed her to enjoy peace of mind without frequent clinic visits. “The device changed my perception of prenatal care. It’s a game-changer,” she said.

What’s next for Nuvo?

The team is focused on expanding accessibility of INVU by Nuvo™ for both moms and physicians. "Our vision is to integrate Nuvo into standard prenatal care worldwide," shared Ryan Kraudel, Chief Commercial Officer at Nuvo. "We’re also exploring AI-driven insights to enhance predictive capabilities."

The innovative device created by Nuvo™  is poised to transform the landscape of prenatal care, offering both convenience and clinical reliability. With glowing reviews from patients and healthcare professionals alike, it is clear this technology is filling a critical gap in pregnancy care.

Stay tuned for updates on Nuvo’s progress for creating a future of pregnancy care that looks brighter one patient at a time.
