Health Sensei, a Chennai based healthcare start-up involved in hospital digitisation, has won the Spark Cash Prize competition for the business model and pitch presentation on its 24x7 live Hospital inpatient monitoring solution.

"Health Sensei was nominated by TiE Chennai for participation in the program, extremely happy that they emerged as a chosen winner from a pool of 86 high potential early-stage start-ups from top incubators and angel networks across the country,’’ said  Akhila Rajeshwar, Executive Director, TiE Chennai.
 
Health Sensei recently launched a smartphone app-based 24x7 live patient monitoring system for hospital critical care units and wards. The system has been implemented in 15 hospitals in cities including Chennai, Vellore and Hyderabad. Continuous monitoring of patients in an ICU is difficult and resource-intensive.

According to Dr Alexander Thomas, President, Association of Healthcare Providers of India, ``With Health Sensei, clinical teams have access to complete patient data including all waveforms and vitals to identify at-risk patients earlier and respond to critical events with conviction. During the COVID pandemic, many hospitals have found this especially useful.’’
