Housepital Platform
Application Logic
Description
Patients connected with wearables connected to 5G through IOT gateway.
Data is transmitted through network to the solution database (on-prem/cloud).
Description
5G’s large bandwidth enables doctors to access vast amounts of real-time patient data.
Patient’s data can be retrieved and analysed in real-time on the cloud.
Description
Information and alarms in dashboards will automatically trigger the emergency unit and doctors for reactive measures to be taken.
Expected benefits
EWS (Early Warning Signals) Detection
Automation of health vitals measurements and transmissions
Chronic care management and reduced re-admissions
Key value created
Transition to value-based services and continuous care
