AI-Enabled Vital Parameter Screening in Kolkata's Private Hospital Network

Kolkata's Private Hospital

Narayana Hospitals that have 1,400 beds across its four units in Kolkata and Howrah, is ‘piloting AI-based systems and will implement them based on their dependability and benefits to patient care’. One of the AI initiatives is a contactless remote patient vitals monitoring and AI-based Early Warning System, according to Abhijit CP, director of Narayana Hospitals and Corporate Growth Initiatives, Narayana Health (East).

Leading the Healthcare Frontier: AI-Powered Remote Monitoring Systems in City Hospitals" "At the forefront of healthcare innovation, several private hospitals in the city have embarked on a transformative journey by implementing or planning to introduce artificial intelligence (AI)-powered remote monitoring systems for every patient. These cutting-edge systems meticulously screen multiple vital parameters, including heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, SPO2 levels (oxygen saturation), and temperature. Additionally, they monitor ECG signals, ensuring comprehensive real-time monitoring of patients' health status. 

The hallmark of these AI-powered systems is their ability to issue instant alerts to healthcare workers across the hospital network whenever a patient experiences or displays signs of deterioration. This groundbreaking technology not only promises to reduce reaction time significantly but also holds the potential to save precious lives. Moreover, by leveraging AI algorithms, these monitoring systems aim to eliminate human errors or oversights in detecting early warning signs, thus enhancing patient safety and care quality. With this innovative approach, hospitals are poised to deliver more proactive and personalized healthcare interventions, ushering in a new era of patient-centric care. 

As these AI-powered remote monitoring systems become increasingly integrated into hospital workflows, they represent a significant leap forward in healthcare delivery, emphasizing the importance of leveraging technology to enhance patient outcomes and streamline clinical processes.""Charnock Hospital Unveils Cutting-Edge 'Enhanced Patient Care System' Powered by AI and Remote Monitoring Technology"

Charnock Hospital recently made waves in the healthcare industry with the launch of its groundbreaking 'Enhanced Patient Care System,' a pioneering initiative aimed at revolutionizing patient care through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and remote monitoring technology.

At the heart of this innovative system lies a sophisticated AI-powered remote monitoring and early warning system (EWS), meticulously designed to enhance patient safety and care quality. Each ward bed is now equipped with a contactless sensor sheet discreetly placed beneath the patient's mattress. This state-of-the-art sensor captures micro vibrations within the body, which are then translated into various vital metrics.

These metrics are seamlessly relayed onto a centralized dashboard accessible to nurses stationed at their respective stations. What sets this system apart is its ability to detect subtle changes in patient parameters in real-time, enabling healthcare providers to intervene proactively before the patient's condition escalates to critical levels.

Nishant Agarwal, an esteemed emergency consultant at Charnock, emphasized the transformative impact of this innovation, stating, "What makes it a game-changer is the fact that it can notice changes in the parameters and issue alerts on a real-time basis. This allows us to take steps before the patient's parameters have reached or crossed the danger-mark."

By leveraging AI and remote monitoring technology, Charnock Hospital has not only elevated the standard of patient care but has also ushered in a new era of predictive and preventive healthcare. With this forward-thinking approach, Charnock Hospital continues to set benchmarks in healthcare innovation, reaffirming its commitment to the well-being and safety of its patients.
