Read full description

iFORA CS works with ForaCare’s Mobile Care Station to provide caregivers an easy-to-use and affordable solution for ward rounds in hospital. The application records patients’ blood glucose, blood pressure, body temperature, and SpO2 readings, and presents them via a comprehensive user interface to facilitate management of patients’ health data. During each measurement, the result is transmitted via Bluetooth to the application instantly, which makes review of readings from different meter types much easier and saves time for handwriting. Features of the software include: DATA IMPORT Operator ID, Patient ID, and all current measurements of patient are imported and reviewed on Import Page. RECORD REVIEW Review all records at a glance. Different categories and sorting options make record searching and management easier. DATA UPLOAD Set the Upload URL for uploading the records. SET YOUR PREFERENCES Set how records are processed after they are imported or uploaded, and your preferences for the units. Please note: This app is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Discuss with your doctor or healthcare provider to determine what is right for you.

About

smartQare

Features
Read full description

The smartQare mobile health app provides insight into users' vital values. Parameters such as heart rate, oxygen saturation and skin temperature are measured continuously and transmitted to the web portal and this app every 5 minutes. In addition, smartQare also contains a number of extra functionalities such as fall detection, activity monitoring based on a movement index, accurate location determination and a personal help button. The medical class IIa device 'viQtor' is therefore the innovative 'finger on the pulse' of patients and other care recipients. Medical data and other information is securely accessible through dashboards in our medical web portal and this app. In this way, both care providers and informal carers have a continuous overview of the well-being of the patient or person in need of care. The viQtor solution enables the right care in the right place and at the right time. This increases the quality of care as well as the independence of the patient.
