Bengaluru-based health startup Dozee has developed an innovative, clinical-grade remote patient monitoring (RPM) service called Shravan. This AI-powered technology allows families and healthcare providers to track patients' vital signs remotely, ensuring timely interventions and improving health outcomes.
Traditionally, families had to rely on hospital updates to monitor their loved ones' health. However, with Shravan, families can now remotely track vital signs, enabling timely interventions.
How Shravan Works:
Shravan's contactless monitoring system tracks vital signs such as:
1. Heart rate
2. Respiration
3. Blood pressure
4. Sleep patterns
The AI-powered Ballistocardiography analyzes biomarkers, providing timely alerts and reducing emergency risks.
Real-Life Success Stories:
1. Nagpur Patient: A critically ill patient refused to return to the ICU due to psychosis. Dozee's bed-enabled technology monitored the patient's vitals in the ward, leading to improved health and discharge.
2. Burn Injury Patients: Contactless monitoring helped track health status without placing devices on the body.
Early Warning System (EWS):
Dozee's EWS can predict patient health deterioration up to 16 hours in advance, enabling early interventions.
Study at King George's Medical University (KGMU):
A comprehensive study involving:
- 700 patients
- 85,000 hours of monitoring demonstrated:
1. Effective prediction of critical events
2. Timely alerts for healthcare professionals
3. Reduced workload for healthcare staff (2.4 hours per member per day)
Expert Insights:
- Dr. Himanshu Dandu, Professor at KGMU: "Shravan provides a scalable, affordable solution for healthcare systems with heavy patient loads, improving survival rates."
- Gaurav Parchani, CTO and co-founder of Dozee: "Continuous monitoring is crucial for non-communicable diseases. Dozee's technology fills the gap between ICU and ward care."
Benefits:
1. Remote monitoring for families, especially NRIs
2. Timely interventions and reduced emergency risks
3. Improved health outcomes
4. Reduced healthcare costs
5. Enhanced patient safety
Growing Need for Remote Monitoring:
India faces a rising burden of non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular disorders, oncology, and nephrology care. Shravan addresses this need by providing continuous monitoring.
Conclusion:
Dozee's Shravan revolutionizes patient care by providing AI-powered, remote monitoring capabilities. This innovative technology has the potential to transform healthcare delivery, ensuring better outcomes and peace of mind for families.
