Manipal Hospital installs Isansys RPM system to monitor critically ill patients outside of ICU
Manipal Hospital in India has adopted the UK-based Isansys Lifecare’s remote patient monitoring system.
The Patient Status Tool (PSE) is a wireless platform that collects and analyzes a patient’s physiological data, such as heart rate, temperature, blood saturation, blood pressure, and ECG, continuously and in real time. These data, along with the early warning score, are being transmitted live to a central monitoring station and on the mobile phones of care teams.
The system, which has been approved for use in the US, UK and Europe, can be applied across multiple healthcare facilities and allows providers to quickly set up virtual wards while seamlessly integrating. patient data circuit into their EMR.
WHY IT IMPORTANT
Hospitals in Manipal will use the Isansys PSE device to continuously monitor the condition of critically ill patients in the ICU. It will allow them to determine which patients will require ICU admission and which patients can be managed and treated in wards.
Already installed in hospital wards, the devices will soon be expanded across all units of the healthcare chain.
TREND TO BIGGER
Another major hospital chain in India, Apollo Hospitals, recently announced a system that automates disease prevention. Developed through health technology unit Healthnet Global, AutoMaid provides an RPM system with AI-powered classification to capture critical parameters in real time. It also comes with motion sensors, a communication block that allows for touch and voice commands, as well as mobile access to room services.
Last year, based in the United States Stasis Health partners with Medtronic India to provide RPM solutions to the country. The Stasis monitor compromises with a bedside monitor that monitors six vital signs, a tablet, and a cloud-connected app that enables remote monitoring across devices.
