This guide describes how remote kidney monitoring devices can be designed and deployed to maximise staff and patient trust and confidence. It has wide ranging application across multiple settings including:

• Developers to illustrate how their technology responds to patient and healthcare professional need.
• Evaluators to inform decisions relating to evaluation and authorisation of devices and technologies.
• NHS Trusts where it could be used for quality assurance during commissioning and procurement, to shape development of clinical standards, and to inform audit and improvement activity.

Although developed for kidney care, this work could inform remote monitoring in other specialties, long term conditions and healthcare settings including virtual wards. We invite researchers to test, learn, pilot, and most importantly, share ‘what works’.
