NEW DELHI: In a first-of-its-kind approach towards patient care, a doctor-led AI healthcare ecosystem is providing real-time medical supervision beyond hospitals to people with chronic conditions, preventing their escalation into serious illness, officials said.
At the core of the ecosystem iLive Connect is a small wireless biosensor patch paired with a wearable wristband, which continuously captures vital physiological parameters.
These include two-lead ECG, heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, body temperature, blood pressure trends, physical activity, and heart rate variability.
The data is transmitted wirelessly to a secure Cloud-based platform and further relayed to a dedicated medical command centre, Dr Rahul Chandola, cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon and founder of iLive Connect, said.
The command centre is manned round-the-clock by specialised doctors who proactively monitor patients in real time, Chandola said.
Unlike conventional monitoring systems that respond only after symptoms appear, iLive Connect incorporates AI-driven predictive analytics, enabling detection of subtle physiological changes that may indicate the onset of disease much before clinical symptoms develop.
This early identification allows doctors to intervene at a preventive stage, significantly reducing complications, avoiding medical emergencies, and decreasing the need for repeat hospitalisation, Chandola said.The command centre is manned round-the-clock by specialised doctors who proactively monitor patients in real time, Chandola said.
According to Chandola, the system was developed to address one of the biggest gaps in healthcare – the absence of continuous medical supervision once a patient leaves the hospital.
“Most serious medical events do not occur inside hospitals but when patients are at home without medical observation. By combining continuous biosensor monitoring with predictive analytics and proactive doctor supervision, iLive Connect enables detection of physiological deterioration well before symptoms appear, allowing timely medical guidance and preventing escalation into serious illness,” Chandola said.
