In order to bridge the digital gap in the existing healthcare delivery eco-system, Medi Tech Innovations, a health-care IT start-up has launched the ‘Solar Powered Health Care Screening Kits’ for the Indian armed forces and para-military.

This specially designed kit helps keep a record of the vital information such as blood sugar level, blood pressure, heart rhythm of the people posted in remote locations.

This comes handy during any emergency medical situation involving the soldiers as the concerned doctors can then refer to the available data for treatment without any delay.

Moreover, the device can provide real time health alerts to the concerned authorities by transmitting patient information through cloud system to the command hospital.
