Point-of-Care Device and Internet of Things Platform for Chronic Disease Management

Access to healthcare is limited for the population in rural areas due to the shortage of medical workerns, insufficient facilities, and the long commute to the hospital. As a result, hospitals and staff are overwhelmed by a lot of patients, yet patients do not receive appropriate care, especially in this growing diabetes and other noncommunicable diseases pandemic. Point-of-care test with an IoT platform can be used to offer a higher quality yet affordable healthcare solution to the community and minimize the workflow of healthcare workers.
