Logica Hygieia - Preventive Healthcare

Research has proven that there are several medical conditions that are largely linked to simple reasons like a sedentary lifestyle, flawed eating habits or simply forgetting to take prescribed medication. The most common of these diseases are coronary illnesses, diabetes and strokes.

Wouldn’t it be something if there was a healthcare system that proactively guided and coerced patients to maintain a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet and timely medication? Wouldn’t it make life so much easier for both the patient as well those who take care of them?

Although medical science has improved by leaps and bounds in identifying diseases and prescribing the right medication, most healthcare systems don’t actively follow up on patients to ensure that they are following the prescription.

An intelligent healthcare system would be one that is more proactive. Where people can be guided dynamically to help prevent them from contracting an illness and lead a healthier lifestyle. This also encourages people to be more involved in taking care of their health.

Logica Hygieia - Controlling health risks with proactive healthcare

With our solution Hygieia, we aim to enable healthcare providers like you to offer more differentiated value-added services to your customers.

With Hygieia, when a doctor types a prescription on his computer, the prescription is transmitted directly to the intelligent Hygieia server, which then forms a daily planner for the patient and sends it to his mobile device. The solution can be activated by the customer by downloading the application on one’s mobile phone or any other device that provides network ability.

The solution helps bring your service to your customer’s home. It is the delivery of health-related services and information via telecommunication technologies, which can be utilized to support the productive interactions between patient and caregiver. Hygieia, thus, helps you become more people-centric, while empowering your customers to be more proactive towards their health. This way, we create value for you by successfully integrating people, business and technology.

Logica Hygieia - Eco-system

Hygieia is enabled by means of the Logica Home Gateway solution - a smart, secure and reliable system. It consists of a touch screen unit with simple, easy-to-understand menu items. Acting as a patient’s personal assistant, the solution sends reminders to the patient regarding medication or exercise, while requiring the patient to enter information on his day’s intake of calorie and such parameters requiring attention. In return, the patient receives a feedback each day regarding his progress. This results in a two-way communication, leading to refinement in lifestyle and health decisions.

Hygieia also interacts with external medical devices, like Pulse Oximeter, Glucometer, Blood Pressure monitor, etc. that can measure vital body parameters. This enables it to do real time monitoring of patients with chronic diseases or patients at high health risk. Because of this, a patient can be provided medical attention accurately and at the right time.
