Use cases

Alviscan can be used in basically any healthcare setting — from hospitals and clinics to pharmacies and even community health centers. Alviscan cannot only support in daily routines and triage process, but also plays a role in prevention by helping people in tracking their vitals early and regularly.   

Below, you’ll find a few practical examples of how Alviscan is used in daily practice. These are just a few possibilities, but many more locations are perfectly suited for the self-measurement kiosk Alviscan.

Below, you’ll find a few practical examples of how Alviscan is used in daily practice. These are just a few possibilities, but many more locations are perfectly suited for the self-measurement kiosk Alviscan.

Outpatient clinics

Alviscan has already proven it’s added value within hospital outpatient clinics, including gynecology, pre-operative screening, internal medicine, and more.

More time for personal care

Direct access to accurate measurement of relevant vitals

Turn waiting time into useful time

Increase patient engagement

“The cost is equivalent to 0.22 FTE, while it frees up 0.5 FTE. This freed-up capacity is used for other tasks, which also helps reduce workload in other departments.”

Central measurement location

By locating one or multiple Alviscan at a central location in the hospital, you can allow all your outpatient clinics to make use of the same Alviscans. Due to the possibilities to make Alviscan automatically select the correct measurements for the patients based on their appointment information, you can accurately measure what matters.  

 

Optimize the use of Alviscan’s capacity

Make self-measurements an integral part of the patient journey

Create more efficient workflows

“This innovation, part of the ‘Outpatient Clinic of the Future’ initiative, reduces the workload for outpatient clinics, promotes patient self-reliance, and provides greater insight into one’s own health.”

Project Group ‘Outpatient Clinic of the Future’ – Elisabeth-TweeSteden Hospital (NL)

Emergency Care

Alviscan transforms emergency triage by enabling patients to capture routine vital signs themselves while waiting on their turn. This allows for early urgency assessment, and gives triage nurses more time to focus on the patient during the actual triage.

Rapid urgency detection based on vital signs

Faster triage flow and shorter response times

More complete and accurate data at the point of care

More time and attention for each patient during triage

24/7 available for pre-triage – always ready

“Triage can be accelerated because we can immediately see when certain measurements are abnormal.”

Christa Gennisse –
Emergency Medical Care Provider / Nursing Information Officer, St. Antonius Hospital (NL)

Rehabilitation

Regular measurements support in monitoring patient’s rehabilitation progress, evaluating the effectiveness of the intervention and adapting the rehab plans where needed. Automatic patient monitoring enhances patient autonomy during the rehabilitation process by allowing them to measure frequently and independently.  

 

Increase capacity for care

Uniformity and consistent quality of the measurements

24/7 availability for patients – reducing waiting times

Enhance patient autonomy and engagement during the rehab process
