Philips Showcases Connected Digital Health Solutions for All Ages at #CES2017

January 10, 2017 By Leticia

This is a sponsored post

As I held a bottle in my hand during breakfast with Philips at CES one morning, I was instantly transported back to the baby years. The shape of the Avent bottle in my hand felt familiar even as Emily turns 13 this week and Thomas is now 10. The big difference is this bottle is far smarter than the ones that my kids used when they were babies.

“Creating innovations that matter to people” is part of the core vision of Philips. This people-centric approach has led to a new generation of technology innovations designed to help us be healthy, live well, and enjoy life whether you’re watching television on one of their monitors, cooking with a Philips appliance, brushing your teeth with a Sonicare toothbrush, dimming your Philips Hue bulbs via your smartphone app, or feeding your baby with an Avent bottle with a Smart Baby Bottle Sleeve.

This year Philips debuted a variety of connected healthcare solutions for a wide range of ages at CES 2017. Here’s more information about the technology innovations that are designed to help babies through adults.

uGrow Digital Parenting Platform

With a wide variety of consumer products in their portfolio, I was most impressed with how Philips has developed their uGrow Digital Parenting Platform to provide parents with personal advice that matters to the health and wellbeing of their baby. With over 350,000 babies born around the world every day, uGrow enables parents to celebrate pregnancy, birth and their child’s healthy development by helping parents track their baby’s vital statistics.

Connected products like the Philips Avent Smart Baby Monitor ($239.99) and Smart Ear Thermometer ($59.99) help track temperature to sleep and presents data in a useful way for both parents and healthcare professionals who can then provide parents with more personalized advice and guidance.

The Smart Baby Bottle Sleeve that fits around Avent bottles monitors milk temperature and volume of milk a baby drinks. It can be connected to an air purifier to monitor air quality and also to Philips Hue lighting system to create a relaxing soothing environment to encourage sleep routines and healthy feeding habits.

Inputting data and tracking information into uGrow will soon be easier with the addition of Amazon Echo voice activation.

Sonicare for Kids Teaches the Youngest Ages Healthy Brushing Habits

As your child grows, Philips Sonicare ‘s Sonicare for Kids Sonic Electric Toothbrush is a way for kids to take charge of their personal health in an age appropriate way. This Bluetooth enabled toothbrush interacts encourages kids to brush longer as they help animated character, Sparkly, brush. Each time kids help Sparkly brush for the first 90 days they use their Sonic Electric Toothbrush, they get something that helps them take care of Sparkly. The gamification factor developed by Sonicare for young ages encourages healthy brushing habits as kids learn this important lifelong skill.

Philips Digital Health Innovations for Adults

In addition to innovations for babies and kids, Philips also shared connected products that can aid parents. The new Sonicare FlexCare Platinum Connected Toothbrush ($219.99) and Philips Sonicare Breath care empower people to take better care of their oral health by giving users data and guidance to empower them to proactively manage and improve their oral health.

For the 8 million patients with sleep apnea and struggle with therapy, Philips DreamWear is a welcome portable solution for those in need of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy while traveling. It features smaller tubing, a flexible silicon mask where the tubing attaches at the top to allow users to sleep comfortably, and much smaller CPAP machine that can fit inside a carry-on, instead of being a separate one. It’s designed to help patients feel like they are not wearing a mask and works by directing airflow through the sides of the mask frame so patients can sleep comfortably in any position with the freedom to move in bed.

DreamWear can be used with the DreamStation app to collect data about sleeping and breathing patterns to help those with sleep apnea get better results and healthier sleep. For those used to SleepMapper, DreamMapper is the new generation of the product that helps new patients adjust to sleep therapy by actively engaging them through daily reminders and encouragement messages.

✅= $5,000 fundraising goal met! 🎉🎉🎉WE 👏🏼 DID 👏🏼IT! 🎉🎉🎉 
It is the best feeling in the world going into tomorrow’s race having bypassed my original fundraising goal by an additional $1,000 and knowing how many of you are cheering for me! ❤️Half marathon #6, I’m coming for you! 🏃🏻‍♀️💪🏼🏅And yes, I had to go back for another photo just like yesterday’s but with my updated fundraising total! 😍 #stjudeheroes #runwithstjude #stjude #memphis #stjudememphismarathon
🎉$4,875 🎉During my flight, my seat mate aske 🎉$4,875 🎉During my flight, my seat mate asked me if I worked for St. Jude after noticing St. Jude Heroes embroidered on my jacket. When I told her I was in town for St. Jude Memphis Marathon and I ran to raise money, she opened her purse and dug around for the cash she had. 💵 She was very familiar with St. Jude’s mission from her involvement in her college sorority and is a regular donor. Even though she had just donated, she handed me a bunch of bills and wished me luck with my race 🏃🏻‍♀️I’ll be adding her gift to the total I had when I picked up my race bib. It was such a thrill to pick up my bib to see you’ve helped me surpass my original goal of $4,000 and to be so close to my new $5,000 goal! ❤️ #stjudeheroes #stjuderun #runforstjude #halfmarathoner #nuunambassador
Put on my running shoes And I boarded the plane To Put on my running shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain 🎶  It is SO good to be back in Memphis! ❤️ Every year I think this might be my last race but the minute I get off the plane and start walking through the airport, I remember my why. My why becomes more apparent as I drive into downtown and past the @stjude campus where children and their families stay during their treatment for life threatening childhood illnesses which is free thanks to donors like you who ensure they never have to pay for treatment, housing, food, or travel. ✈️ At St. Jude kids get the best care, care that I could only hope for if my kids were to ever get sick. And that is my why. 🩺 On the St. Jude campus there are moms just like me who face the unimaginable every single day. I run for them so they can focus on helping their child live. ❤️‍🩹 I know if I was a mom of a patient, there would be an army of Heroes who would fundraise, train, and run for me and my sick child. I also run to give them hope which is something so many families have thanks to donors like you. St. Jude leads the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. When this is your why, it’s hard to stop which is why I just keep going. ❤️#stjudeheroes #runforstjude #memphis #whyirun #nuunambassador
It’s almost St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend! ❤️ This will be my 6th half marathon & 9th race benefiting @stjude kids and families. 🏃🏻‍♀️As a race veteran, you’d think my goal would be to improve my time but honestly, my goals are to raise money as much money as possible and to run for those who can’t. If you haven’t already donated but would like to, see the St. Jude link in my bio to make a tax deductible donation of any amount. 🙏🏻 I’m so so close to $5,000 and with your help, I know I’ll get there! Thanks in advance for any amount you can give and get ready for lots of race related posts and stories over the next few days! Sorry not sorry! 🏃‍♀️❤️🏃‍♀️

Every day when their boy leaves for school, these Every day when their boy leaves for school, these two follow me upstairs and jump on his bed. 🛏️ One watches the driveway from the window and the other stares out the door, ready to alert the other if he comes returns. It’s the sweetest thing! 🐾 I reassure them he’ll be back later but I’m not quite sure what this pair is going to do next year when he heads off to college. I guess we’ll pass the days until the kiddos come home with long dog walks and console ourselves with treats. 💔  #chocolatelab #yellowlab #labrador #puppylove #rescuedog #labrescue #momlife
I’ve visited historic Old Town Alexandria many t I’ve visited historic Old Town Alexandria many times but today I got to know a different side of the city by hearing little-known stories of Africans and African-Americans, both enslaved and freemen, and visiting historic sites. ⛪️ According to @j_chapman99 (founder of @manumissiontour, 4th generation Alexandrian, and Alexandria City Council Member!!) Alexandria, Virginia was one of early America’s main centers for the international and domestic slave trade. As we drove through different historic neighborhoods, the contributions by Black Americans were apparent throughout. 🏡 It was a powerful day and an excellent reminder that Black history IS Virginia history which makes it a huge part of American history! 🇺🇸 If you’re in the DC area or happen to be planning a visit to Alexandria, I highly recommend booking a tour with Manumission Tour Company to educate yourself about important historical events and individuals whose contributions to local history are just as significant as those usually mentioned in history books. 📚Huge thanks to John for making me aware of a very important part of Old Town Alexandria’s history and also to @toyotausa for inviting me to join be a part of their Steeped in History initiative. 🚘 #ToyotaPartner #ToyotaSteepedinHistory #alexandriava #blackhistory
Happy Halloween! 🎃 Before your kids head out fo Happy Halloween! 🎃 Before your kids head out for an evening of trick or treating or hanging out with friends, take 20 minutes to have important conversations about how to handle peer pressure, safety, and healthy choices. Over the weekend I spoke with @livenowfox about how you can help your kids handle peer pressure and say “NO” to potentially dangerous behaviors like underage drinking if offered a sip of alcohol. If you're not sure how to start the conversation, here's a link to the segment I did about @ask_listen_learn as part of my role as an Education Advisory Board member for @go_faar. 👻 https://www.livenowfox.com/video/1304222 #halloween #parenting #responsibility #preventunderagedrinking #take20withkids
The things I do for a shirt! 🧡 To be honest, I The things I do for a shirt! 🧡 To be honest, I love a good challenge and Hell Week is one of my favorite OrangeTheory Fitness challenges! 💀 I *might* have been a little obsessive about pre-booking my classes and gotten a little irritated when my husband thought he’d have to travel for work which would have messed with my schedule. 😂 I *may* have cancelled and booked 3 different classes on one day when this week’s work schedule got crazy. 😳 I *definitely* did not take day 2 off and rest like I had planned when a friend texted, asking if I wanted to go to class. 🤪 But it was worth it! I got my 4 Hell Week classes done in the first 4 days and earned my 6th Hell Week shirt! 🧡 And yes! I’ll be there tomorrow for day 5. Maybe I’ll take a rest day Sunday!💀 Shoutout to the all the OTFSS coaches who kept the motivation high these first 4 days when the going got tough. I appreciate you more than you know! 🧡💪🏼🧡#orangetheory #otf #hellweek #stjudeheroes #teamnuun
