XProtect Hospital Assist
XProtect Hospital Assist is specifically designed for medical units that provide continuous or situational observation for patients, such as those in intensive care and rehabilitation units.
Medical staff can use XProtect Hospital Assist to observe multiple critically ill patients at once and communicate with them. This reduces unnecessary room visits and offers a better use of staff resources.
To ensure patient privacy, the technology is fitted with a live video blurring function. Moreover, another key feature is automatic fall detection.
