RPM

The hydrogel-based sensor can continuously monitor cholesterol and lactate on the skin. 

It enables data-driven respiratory care that brings down costs and wait times for patients.

It uses personalised AI that measures speech, neck movement, touch, breathing, and heart rates.

Its latest funding will also go to building new capabilities.

Also, Dozee has received capital backing from British International Investment for its hospital bed upgrade project.

Also, Lunit signed multiple contracts this week to deliver its AI imaging software in Hong Kong, Mongolia, and Brazil.

Also, Olympus has come up with the third-generation Visera Elite surgical visualisation platform for endoscopic procedures.

Telehealth was vital to the pandemic response, with much of the enabling technology already in place. Its role in maintaining care and monitoring patient health at a time of shielding, social distancing and remote working anticipated wider benefits.

A systematic review published in the Lancet found that RPM for COVID-19 patients could help triage a patient's condition, but did not necessarily link to a better health outcome. 

A smart ring-type heart-monitoring device is targeting the global market.
