Ignazio Messina & C. equips the fleet with advanced telemedicine systems
The provision of equipment to ships which makes it possible to carry out emergency examinations on board the basic spectrum has begun
March 2, 2022
The innovative "medical device" makes it possible carrying out on board the basic spectrum of emergency: from pressure control to electrocardiogram to spirometry, transmitting through particularly light the result to a control room on the ground and getting in real time diagnosis and emergency therapy up to the eventual request for emergency transport from the ship on the high seas at most near ground hospital center. The equipment, in addition, can allow periodic screenings on the state of health of the components of the crew, thus implementing a real and concrete action of preventive medicine.
The result of a research and a project developed by CIRM, the International Medical Radio Center, this medical device allows the master, following a brief training provided by the CIRM, to carry out, even in navigation, essential examinations and obtain from land the appropriate medical prescriptions.
