Clinical safety by design

Serene Pulse is built on evidence-based clinical guidelines with deterministic rules, full audit trails, and real-time escalation protocols to ensure every member gets the right care at the right time.

Evidence-based guidelines

Our triage rules are aligned with American Heart Association (AHA) and American College of Cardiology (ACC) hypertension management guidelines.

Normal Range

SBP <130 and DBP <80

Reassurance + medication reminder

Elevated

SBP 130–139 or DBP 80–89

Lifestyle coaching + follow-up in 1 week

Stage 1 Hypertension

SBP 140–159 or DBP 90–99

Callback within 1 hour if symptomatic

Stage 2 Hypertension

SBP ≥160 or DBP ≥100

Urgent callback within 15 minutes

Hypertensive Crisis

SBP ≥180 or DBP ≥120

Immediate callback + potential 911 guidance

Symptomatic High BP

Any reading + chest pain, shortness of breath, severe headache

Immediate escalation to emergency services

Real-time escalation

Every reading is triaged in real time. High readings trigger immediate clinician callbacks with clear protocols.

Level 1: Reassurance

Immediate

Trigger: Normal reading (SBP <140, DBP <90)

Action: Automated message: 'Your reading is in a safe range. Keep taking your meds.'

Level 2: Symptom Check

Immediate

Trigger: Elevated reading (SBP 140–159)

Action: System asks: 'Are you having chest pain, shortness of breath, or severe headache?'

Level 3: Clinician Callback

Within 1 hour

Trigger: High reading (SBP 160–179) with symptoms OR repeat high reading

Action: Licensed nurse calls within 1 hour. Assesses symptoms, medication adherence, and next steps.

Level 4: Urgent Callback

Within 5–15 minutes

Trigger: Very high reading (SBP ≥180) OR symptomatic crisis

Action: Immediate clinician callback. May recommend telehealth, urgent care, or 911.

Level 5: Emergency

Immediate

Trigger: Hypertensive emergency (SBP ≥180 + severe symptoms) OR member reports emergency symptoms

Action: Immediate guidance to call 911 or go to nearest ED.
