A British tech firm is transforming GP surgeries with its unique hubs that allow doctors to remotely examine vitals such as patients’ oxygen levels and perform heart and lung checks.
Recent research by The British Medical Association (BMA) revealed almost two-thirds of GPs reported a shortage of personal protective equipment.
To improve infection control and prevent the spread of Covid-19, Medicspot is supplying technology for patients to have a virtual consultation with doctors without the risk of passing on the virus.
The hubs, which are manufactured in Hastings, East Sussex, guide patients on performing an examination on themselves while the doctor ensures they are doing it correctly.
