REMOTE MONITORING OF OXYGEN FOR COVID PATIENTS
WhAT
Our free SMS-based monitoring system enables a remote Carer (friend/family) to track the Patient's oxygen levels via hourly oximeter readings without constantly disturbing the Patient. The Carer can see if expected readings are missed, and is alerted if the Patient’s oxygen levels drop too low. It is additional to support provided by over-stretched Health Care Workers.
WhY
Oximeters:
- Halve Covid deaths if used at home as alerted, & get to hospital earlier (1)
- Alert re low oxygen so Patients tend to consume less hospital resources, & survive.
- Avoid wasting hospital resources by presenting unnecessarily.
