WHAT IS A MEDICAL MONITORING SOLUTION?
In a medical situation, the quality of advice given is only as good as the information provided.
Advanced medical monitoring tools like Corpuls3, Tempus Pro and MedAire’s DAK, are incredibly useful in supporting responders to obtain medical information and send across to MedAire.
This equipment allows you to send live, accurate vital signs readings directly to MedAire, such as: temperature, blood pressure, blood Oxygen levels and the heart's rhythm and electrical activity (ECG), for diagnosis and assistance.
This is of course invaluable when medical support is not immediately available - with more than 450 MedAire superyacht clients adopting a solution.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A MEDICAL MONITORING SOLUTION?
Aside from providing peace-of-mind to guests and responders alike, these devices can be used in a number of helpful ways, including:
- Emergency Response: MedLink doctors can assess the patient's condition in real-time and provide immediate guidance including advice about whether further shoreside medical attention or evacuation is necessary.
- You are never left alone: Sharing live medical vital signs data with MedAire’s doctors means expert professionals can be quickly called upon to support a live case.
- Crew and guests can be quickly diagnosed and potentially treated onboard, reducing the need to make costly and inconvenient shoreside trips.
- Vital signs recorded onboard can easily be shared with the next port of call and used for case management.
- Vital signs monitors are universal in traditional medical settings: Having this capability onboard ensures you have invested in the very best duty of care for guests and crew.
- Difficult or stressful decisions on treatment or diversions, can be made with informed medical data and medical second opinions.
