Why is it an opportunity?

▪ The need of medical technology has increased in the Health Industry. The increase of patient volume in Healthcare has caused a need of more medical staff to check patient’s vitals.

▪ The problem it will solve is to reduce costs in a healthcare business, avoid emergency room overcrowding and preparing for the growing number of elderly patients in years to come. These issues have been the push in patient care to adopt wireless patient monitoring system to track vital signs.

▪ Our wireless vital monitoring sleeve system will help the medical staff with day to day activities when it comes to recording patient’s vital signs. It will also give the opportunity for medical staff to interact with patients using real-time audio/video while the sleeve is continuously tracking and recording patient’s vital signs electronically.
