- In its continuous efforts to provide unparalleled care to its patients, Vijaya Hospital, Chennai adopted Dozee’s AI-based contactless continuous remotemonitoring and early warning system to enhance patient safety
Chennai, 28, March 2023:Dozee, India’s first AI-based contactless Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) & Early Warning System (EWS), has been adopted by Vijaya Hospital in Chennai, to improve clinical outcomes with continuous patient monitoring and early warning system.By allowing doctors and healthcare professionals to monitor patients remotely, Dozee’s solution will improve patient safety and care at the hospital.One of the largest centers in South India equipped with technologically advanced solutions, Vijaya Hospital has been at the forefront of the digital revolution that is transforming the current healthcare ecosystem in the country.
Dozee enables healthcare workers to remotely monitor patient vitals such as respiration rate, heart rate, SPO2 levels, blood pressure, and temperature while keeping track of their sleeping patterns. Its early warning system can immediately alert nurses and doctors if a patient’s condition starts becoming critical, allowing for timely interventions. It also saves the daily hours that nurses spend on manual routine check-ups of patient vitals and rather provides additional time for the nurses for more bedside patient care.
Dozee uses AI-powered Ballistocardiography (BCG) for contactless vitals monitoring. Dozee’s technology is patented and made in India, and it has been clinically proven to be 98.4% accurate. Continuous vital monitoring significantly impacts patient safety, clinical outcomes, and operational efficiency. Research done by independent consulting firm Sattva shows that for every ~100 Dozee connected beds, it can save ~144 lives and ~80% of the time taken for vitals by nurses and reduce ICU Average Length Of Stay (ALOS) by ~1.3 days.
On the hospital’s adoption of Dozee’s connected beds, Mrs. B. Bharathi Reddy, Managing Trustee & CEO, Vijaya Medical & Educational Trust, said “We are always looking for ways to improve patient care and safety. Dozee’sAI-based Remote Patient Monitoring& Early Warning System will help us achieve this by providing continuous remote monitoring of patients and early warning of any deterioration in their condition.
