The “Eyes in the Sky” Care Model

The modern hospital is no longer confined to the four walls of a ward. With the rise of cloud-based technology, we are seeing a shift toward decentralized care and offsite consultations—what we call “eyes in the sky” care models.

BIOX’s SmartHospital platform provides live access to medical data of hospitalized patients, assisting clinicians in monitoring their progress from anywhere. Whether using a PC, tablet, or smartphone, the access to vital sign information in real-time ensures faster analysis and assessment of patients’ current clinical conditions.


Why One Size Doesn’t Fit All

Every patient is unique, requiring a tailored approach to care. In a critical care setting, monitored parameters can vary greatly depending on the patient’s condition.

  • Ventilation: Requires focus on respiratory rates and oxygen saturation.
  • Dialysis: Prioritizes fluid balance and blood pressure.
  • Post-Op Recovery: Needs broad vital sign tracking.

With limited screen space on mobile devices and central stations, flexibility is key. You cannot clutter a screen with irrelevant data when seconds count.

Customizable Templates for Precision

To address this, we developed a customizable template feature for our multi-patient views. This allows users to create special templates that the whole organization can use. Clinicians can change the parameters they are viewing in just one click.

This flexibility allows for the ease of creating a unique approach to every patient’s care. It enhances staff efficiency by presenting only the most relevant data, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Real-Time Reaction

The ability to monitor real-time vitals and waveforms of multiple patients on one screen transforms how medical teams react. It’s not just about seeing data; it’s about the speed of response.

By enabling faster reaction to changes in condition, BIOX helps clinicians intervene earlier, reducing the likelihood of adverse events. This scalable, cloud-based solution ensures that whether a doctor is at the bedside or remote, the quality of care remains consistent.
