Data Categories

The vitals feature organizes health data into five main categories:
  1. Sleep Health
    • Total sleep duration
    • Sleep efficiency percentage
    • Sleep stage distribution
  2. Physical Activity
    • Daily step count
    • Active calories burned
    • Active minutes
  3. Body Composition
    • Weight trends
    • Body fat percentage
    • Muscle mass percentage
    • Bone density percentage
    • Water percentage
  4. Cardiovascular Health
    • Blood pressure (systolic/diastolic)
    • Resting heart rate
    • Heart rate variability (HRV)
    • Blood oxygen saturation
  5. Metabolic Health
    • Average glucose levels
    • Blood sugar trends

Usual Component Interactions

Vitals tracking provides foundational health monitoring data: Core Integration:
  • Notifications: Alerts for abnormal readings and measurement reminders
  • Provider Patient EMR: Share vital signs data during clinical encounters
Common Enhancements:
  • Goal Tracking: Set and monitor vital sign improvement goals
  • Medication Tracking: Correlate vital signs with medication effectiveness
  • Symptom Tracker: Connect symptoms to vital sign changes
  • Basic EMR: Integrate vital signs into clinical encounters
  • Telehealth: Share vital signs during virtual consultations

Implementation Examples

Vitals tracking can be customized for different health monitoring needs:
  • Diabetes Monitoring
Situation: You want to monitor tracking for diabetes patients blood glucose and related vitals.
"Configure vitals tracking for diabetes management. 
1. Connect glucose meters through Junction/Vital API for automatic readings. 
2. Add the option to track weight since weight affects blood sugar control.
