Alviscan is featured by the European Digital Innovation Hubs Network, showing how it enables patients to record vital signs in hospitals and clinics, improving workflow efficiency and supporting healthcare professionals.
At Adrz Hospital, Alviscan allows patients to complete their vital sign measurements on their own. Patients report it’s easy and engaging, while healthcare professionals benefit from more patient focused consultation time.
At St. Antonius Hospital Nieuwegein, Alviscan is used in triage, allowing patients to self-measure vital signs before seeing a healthcare professional, thereby helping staff prioritize care and focus on urgent cases.
Bravis Hospital is testing Alviscan, letting patients measure weight, blood pressure, and heart rate themselves, saving healthcare professionals’ time, boosting patient engagement and improving care efficiency.
At Jeroen Bosch Hospital, Alviscan is used in the gynecology department. Patients measure their own heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and weight. The data is automatically saved in HiX, and patients get a printout of their results.
By measuring their own vital signs in the waiting room, patients experience less stress, which keeps blood pressure more stable and provides more accurate readings. This also reduces the time nurses spend on measurements, allowing doctors to focus more on the patient during consultations. Automatic data entry further minimizes errors, eliminating manual data entry mistakes.
“Blood pressure readings are more reliable and often lower; we no longer need to re-measure as often or refer to triage, reducing patient anxiety and workload for triage staff.”
