AIIMS partners with BEL to develop remote health monitoring system to combat COVID-19

Bengaluru, Apr 9 (UNI) All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Rishikesh, in collaboration with Bengaluru headquartered PSU Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), has developed a state-of-the-art health monitoring system to remotely assess the health of COVID-19 suspects/patients quarantined in homes and hospitals.
The solution aims to significantly reduce the risk of exposure to healthcare workers. It is also expected to reduce the increasing demand for PPE and other logistics. Faced with the COVID-19 pandemic, the need to develop a solution to remotely monitor patients for limiting exposure of healthcare workers was prime and urgent, according to a BEL press release here on Thursday.
To combat this need, AIIMS Rishikesh and BEL have come together to provide a comprehensive digital and clinically appropriate solution. Based on inputs given by AIIMS-Rishikesh, BEL developed the Proof of Concept (POC) model of a system integrating non-invasive health monitoring sensors to measure critical parameters such as Temperature, Pulse Rate, SPO2 (Saturated Oxygen level) and Respiration Rate. BEL, which has proven expertise in Network Centric and IoT systems, has also networked these sensors for remotely monitoring the critical parameters.
