The phrase points to the process of acquiring and installing the mobile software designed for use with a specific medical device. This software is likely intended to interface with the device, potentially for data collection, analysis, or remote monitoring. An example would be a user accessing the relevant app store (e.g., Google Play Store or Apple App Store) and initiating the process of installing the software onto their personal device.
The significance lies in enabling convenient user access to health-related data and device functionality. It facilitates self-monitoring capabilities, potentially improving patient adherence to treatment plans and allowing for remote consultations with healthcare professionals. Historically, such device interfaces were often limited to dedicated hardware, whereas mobile apps bring increased accessibility and portability.
