"Ensuring safety and appropriate rate of weight loss is always a concern among healthcare providers who are remotely monitoring patients on GLP1 medication. Without having patients come into a physical clinic, there hasn't been a means of checking health metrics, such as weight and blood pressure, in a way that they can be easily transferred into their electronic medical record for trending over time."

"Many patients currently treated by our affiliated medical group for weight management have heart disease, diabetes or other chronic conditions. Accessible interaction with a virtual provider - combined with diagnostics, remote patient monitoring and in-home tools like those offered by Withings — can improve patient outcomes and reduce the cost of care for chronic diseases."

"Obesity is a complex, chronic medical condition that requires comprehensive care. GLP-1 medications are powerful tools in the obesity medicine toolkit, but they must be paired with lifestyle counseling and medical oversight for success & safety."

"Ideally, we want patients to lose adipose tissue and preserve their lean body mass. By measuring body composition, we can accurately determine if this is, in fact, occurring. If we see that pounds are going down but their body fat percentage is staying the same and their muscle mass is decreasing, we can modify lifestyle components such as their type and frequency of exercise and food intake, for instance."

"Regular communication and motivation are crucial to helping patients stay on track. The health data Withings devices can capture on a regular basis has helped our Care Teams better monitor patient progress and provide personalized care."

"Our patients love the Withings scale because it's incredibly reliable. The body positioning feature helps patients know how to shift their body to get an accurate reading and it's great that the scale stores data so that even when it's not connected to the internet it still captures the data and sends it to our system once it does have a connection. Overall our weight readings are more accurate and we receive them more consistently since we've partnered with Withings."

“By equipping every participant with connected devices from the very start, we give them feedback that fuels adherence, empowers healthier choices, and provides clinicians with trusted data they need to deliver scalable, evidence-based care that moves the needle not just in weight, but in metabolic health, cost savings, and long-term risk reduction."

"Patient engagement is the cornerstone of effective obesity and cardiometabolic care. Withings' cellular scales deliver consistent, trusted data which empowers our clinical team to deliver effective treatment and helps patients stay on track with their goals."

"At Ilant, we believe treating obesity effectively means being accountable for both outcomes and cost. Withings' cellular solutions give us accurate, trusted data that can help quantify ROl, build payer trust, and deliver scalable, affordable, evidence-based care across diverse populations."

Using connected devices to support sustainable weight loss on GLP-1s

Preventing muscle loss

Daily measurement and analysis of patient body composition allows care teams to observe patient response to GLP-1 treatments over time — and intervene to prevent unhealthy loss of muscle mass.

Combatting plateau

Access to data beyond weight and BMI is key to promoting a more holistic approach to sustainable weight loss. It leads patients to focus less on specific numbers and more on healthy changes in their body composition.

Promoting longevity

When care teams can see daily patient progress, it’s easier to determine which patients need additional support. Features such as Withings’ Health Nudges allow care teams to send direct messages, offering motivation that strengthens engagement.

Sharing outcomes

With a suite of connected devices and a platform that observes key patient biomarkers during or after treatment, reporting on GLP-1 outcomes can be easy and consistent.

The science behind measuring body composition

When it comes to weight, Body Mass Index (BMI) alone may not tell the whole story. Learn more about the importance of analyzing body composition and how Body Pro 2 provides the healthcare industry with the most advanced at-home measurements.

Patient perspectives

"[My Withings scale] encouraged daily weigh-ins, identification of more clear lean body mass decrease, [and] increased focus on protein intake and resistance exercise per HCP guidance."

"I watch my muscle mass through the Withings scale. I don't need my weight to decrease quickly, but I do want to keep or gain muscle"

"I was fearful that I would lose muscle, and the scale helped me to monitor."

"Daily reminder of weight, body composition, and BP (blood pressure) reinforced healthy eating and exercise goals."
