This particular equipment tackles this very challenge faced by the medical world. Staces is a remote patient monitoring unit, an equipment that allows the collection of all necessary medical details of the patient without actually maintaining any direct contact with the patient. It allows Doctors and Nurses to know the five most important Health conditions of a patient, including Heart rate, ECG and Respiration, remotely from a smartphone or laptop. It also detects the lowering of oxygen content in the blood and also provides warnings in case of deteriorating health conditions of the patient.
