Greek shipping company Angelicoussis Shipping Group has implemented a 3-month pilot of onboard crew medical care solution by MedAssist.Online.
Dutch company MedAssist.Online delivers approved medical solutions through “bringing the doctor to the vessel” when it is needed the most. MedAssist.Online offers medical care solutions that are affordable, reliable, and are able to operate at sea with low to zero bandwidth, increasing a company’s compliance with international standards.
The program consists of three user-friendly applications that serve different purposes and will assist crew members when there is an emergency on the vessel.
One of the applications, MedAssist Live App, addresses the challenge of providing medical help when there is no expert on site.
The Live App allows a distant professional to assist virtually. Crew members onboard the ship receive real-time visual instruction and guidance, using augmented reality. This allows medical assistance to be delivered anywhere and at any given time.
The Skills App provides instructions for performing basic medical procedures. The Heart App solution, that includes a Bluetooth sensor hardware as well, will generate a 12-lead hospital-quality ECG. With a single click, the result (the ECG) can be sent as a PDF to professionals.
The only needed tool is a tablet, which is provided by MedAssist.online.
MedAssist.online is represented in Greece by Oriani Hellas.
