Tech bridges gap between covid patients, relatives

Tech bridges gap between covid patients, relatives Tech bridges gap between covid patients, relatives BySridhar VivanSridhar Vivan / Updated: Jul 10, 2021, 06:00 IST The pilot project is being tested at a few government hospitals One of the biggest challenges a covid patient faces during their stay at the hospital is that they never get a chance to meet their family members. Although some hospitals allow attenders to meet the patients wearing PPE kit, it’s not feasible for many. Keeping this in mind, the health department is now planning to have a virtual consultation facility where the relatives or attendants can speak to the covid patients using tele-screens. This pilot project is being tested at a few government hospitals and if successful will be extended to other hospitals as well.

Now a new war room that links all hospitals in the State is being readied for the third wave Covid affects three of your five senses. You lose your sense of taste and smell, and touch is forbidden for fear of infection. At such a time, sight and sound bear all the weight of human communication. The very first war room and visual monitoring system set up at the Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Chest Diseases (RGICD), tapped into these two senses to monitor patients and keep them communicating with their loved ones.
