HealthNet Global launches smart in-patient automation system

Hyderabad headquartered HealthNet Global has launched a smart in-patient room automation system – AutoMaid, a one-stop solution for all in-patient needs via mobile app and voice commands. The app features an AI-powered triaging system that enables the continuous and accurate monitoring of a patient’s respiratory rate, heart rate and other clinical parameters without coming in contact with the patient.

The solution aims to enhance a patient’s stay experience, improve the operational effectiveness for the hospital staff while lowering the energy consumption of the hospital. The solution allows patients to control electric appliances and lights using both touch and voice commands and also includes motion sensors in washroom for patient safety and efficient use of electricity. Bed handrail sensor allows notification to be sent to nurses for better safety of patients.

HealthNet Global CEO Vikram Thaploo said, “The smart in-patient room automation solution comes with a contactless sensor, communication pod and cloud-based patient monitoring tool with an AI-powered triaging system which captures real-time body vitals, and provides round the clock monitoring for patients who were previously manually monitored. It also offers patients and attendants to get one-stop access to all room services such as housekeeping, food and beverage, nursing and feedback. Doctors and healthcare specialists can remotely monitor a patients’ health from a centralised patient monitor, where at a time, hundreds of patients can be monitored from the web-dashboard and also from a mobile phone app.”

“There is a huge potential for AutoMaid to bring about a paradigm shift in the healthcare system with contactless health monitoring and an AI-Based early warning system. It can also help in monitoring at-risk patients at home and enabling doctors to continuously monitor their health,” said Dr Sangita Reddy, Joint Managing Director of Apollo Hospitals Group.
