Features

A simple user friendly mobile application developed to interact instantly with ECG expertise doctor to provide opinion on ECG machine output uploaded in rural village hamlet. Telemedicine Operators at village can access results via Mobile app and inform patients accordingly. This mobile app will further drop down the ECG evaluation response time.

The existing what group posting of ECG output will be migrated into Mobile app platform and multiple doctors will be assigned to designated area to address the ECG evaluation to speed up the response time. This app will provide real time analytics to CAD Management team and analytics to general public for healthy competitions. Such healthy competitions among many locations will encourage general public to get into more ECG test thus detecting heart related anomaly at the earliest. We will be adding additional feature for Patients to view their test history, generating Prescriptions soon.

HELPING RURAL PEOPLE

ECG Machines will be installed in rural health care centres, where patients can go get their ECG.

CONNECTING DOCTORS

The patient information will be available to the cardiologist before they reach the clinic or hospital. This information will be passed on through CAD WhatsApp, helping the doctor prepare for their next operation.

TIME SAVING

Through proposed mobile based application and IT infrastructure patients can be guided in en-route the hospital, thus saving time.

Why ECG?

People ridiculed and dissuaded me when I took up this project, they said I should put up a Cath lab rather than providing ECG machines. They were sceptical about the design and execution as it involved government machinery. Today we have proven them wrong, coming from a rural background myself, I knew the ground reality of our villages and what the milestones would be in achieving this dream of mine.
