Sanela Technologies – Hospital Management System (HMS)
Hospital management systems, or eHealth systems, are designed to efficiently manage multiple hospital operations in a single platform. HMS offers decision-support for hospital authorities while developing comprehensive healthcare and hospital policies. The systems typically combine patient and employee payroll data to provide valuable insights into the quality of patient care. HMS also reduces the expenses of healthcare institutions due to reduced paperwork, duplication of laboratory testing. or optimized utilization of hospital resources.
Indian startup Sanela Technologies develops a scalable, configurable, and secure care management platform. Sanela’s software supports healthcare delivery teams by enabling improved care coordination and quality, as well as lower costs. The HMS serves as a single access point for hospital requirements to handle patient data, appointments, diagnostics, laboratory reports, billing, and other operational tasks. Further, the platform effectively supports doctors by scheduling and individually recording all events and observations of their patient accounts. Besides, the startup also offers laboratory information management system (LIMS) software, a dental clinic management system, and a pharmacy information system (PIS).
Darvis – Communications for Hospitals
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based care technologies help hospitals automate time-consuming manual tasks. Moreover, the internet of things (IoT) technologies digitally connect various hospital rooms and spaces. Together, emerging technology improves healthcare delivery, enabling hospitals and care facilities to optimize the flows of medical equipment and services.
The US-based startup Darvis uses patented AI-powered technology to give rooms and objects a voice and enable hospital spaces to strategically communicate. The solution analyzes data from optical sensors to provide hospital administrators contextual insights. This enables hospitals and care facilities to build, manage, and secure staff, hygiene standards, and medical equipment. The solution significantly eases the day-to-day administration and operations in hospitals.
REIVR – Digital Twin for Hospitals
AI and virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) allow startups to build digital twins of hospital assets, processes, staff, patients, places, systems, and devices. Digital twins facilitate internal hospital communications, real-time patient monitoring, triage, and hospice care, among other use cases. For example, the technology is useful for assessing options while expanding or optimizing hospital spaces.
REIVR is n Irish startup that works on real-time location system (RTLS) solutions for the global hospital market. REIVR is an edge computing-based RTLS that incorporates a network of fusion sensors. Each fusion sensor creates a 3D digital twin model of its physical environment. REIVR then monitors the movement of assets and patients in its virtual field-of-view using identification (ID) tags.
Recare – Patient Management System
The outcome of successful treatment in hospitals combine improved patient health with efficient time management. This drives emerging HealthTech startups to develop patient management systems (PMS) and technologies. PMS analyzes patient, medical, and testing data, as well as administrative and operations data, to make hospitals more efficient.
French startup Recare digitizes care coordination between hospitals and care providers. The startup develops a flexible and user-friendly platform to support hospitals with patient discharge and transfer management. The startup’s platform further enables transparent documentation and secure communication of patient data. To enable hospitals to easily adopt the technology, Recare ensures integration with existing health information systems.
Techmetics Robotics – Hospital Robots
Staff and doctor shortages force hospital administrators to consider increasing investments in robotics and automation solutions. For example, surgical robots assist surgeons to efficiently perform precise operations and improve patient outcomes. Robotics and automation also help in reducing manpower requirements for hospitals and reduce costs for patients in the long term.
Techmetics Robotics is a US-based scaleup developing autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for various industries including healthcare, assisted living, hospitality, and retail globally. Techmetics robots for healthcare perform multiple tasks including the transport and delivery of laboratory samples, medication, and various hospital supplies, as well as for waste disposal. The scaleup’s robots enable full autonomy for hospital navigation by utilizing its patented Liftbot elevator interface technology. Users further benefit from easily operating multiple robots through smart devices. The AMRs also offers support for third-party interfaces. The new Techi UV disinfection robots enable the efficient sterilization of hospital surfaces and equipment against bacterial and viral contaminations.
