VSee Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: VSEE), a provider of comprehensive telehealth services that customize workflow streams and enhance patient care, and Ava Robotics, a developer of intelligent robots for the workplace, today announced an agreement to develop telepresence solutions for the inpatient intensive care market, including the development of a VSee-powered Ava robot that allows providers to extend their reach and provide personalized care remotely.
The Ava Robot will be autonomous in the hospital intensive care unit (ICU), enabling skilled physicians to have a physical presence at the point of patient care, interact with patients, consult with onsite staff and make treatment decisions, all in real time. The Ava Robot, powered by VSee software, is intended to expand the reach of telehealth solutions beyond the largest hospitals in major metropolitan areas and make telehealth accessible to regional hospitals and smaller ICUs.
“Telehealth is among the most innovative advancement in medicine in the 21st century. Our goal under this new agreement with Ava Robotics is to make the best critical care in the world available to every ICU in the country,” said Imo Aisiku, M.D., co-CEO and Chairman of VSee Health. “We have the best-trained physicians in the world, and by integrating with Ava’s robotics we will be able to extend their reach and expertise to patients throughout the United States.
“Not only will patients receive the best expertise available and better care, regardless of location, but hospitals will be able to deliver a new, heightened level of care, reducing transfers and costs associated with critical care and stroke,” he added. “With the first commercial product launched in June, the Ava Robot is expected to be able to improve tele-stroke operations, and additional uses will be identified in the medical field as use of the Robot expands.”
