Seoul – July 4, 2023 –

Enterprise AI service provider People and Technology Co., Ltd. (Co-CEOs Hong Sung-pyo and Lim Jin-soon) announced its participation as a collaborative research institution in the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s Remote Medical Technology Development Project. The initiative focuses on developing and validating an RWE (Real-World Evidence)-based Triple All-in-One Intelligent Monitoring System for Respiratory Infectious Diseases for Medically Underserved Populations.

The project will run from April 2023 to December 2026, with Ilsan Hospital of the National Health Insurance Service serving as the lead institution. People and Technology will collaborate with Sky Labs to execute the project.

Project Highlights

The goal is to develop the world's first single wearable device capable of multi-biomarker monitoring, combined with a portable smart pad and platform to address challenges in wireless connectivity and home-based patient monitoring. This system is designed to be accessible even to digitally illiterate patients or those from medically underserved populations.

People and Technology’s Role

People and Technology will:

1. Develop Remote Patient Monitoring Systems:

   • Integrate data collected from wearable devices using Bluetooth communication for comprehensive biomarker analysis.

2. Design All-in-One Patient Management Services for Home Treatment:

   • Focus areas include tracking underlying conditions, activity monitoring, symptom management through self-measurement, medication adherence, and mental health support for respiratory infection patients in home treatment.

The system aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of home-based care.

Advanced Monitoring Features

The project’s innovative all-in-one wearable biomarker monitoring device and portable smart gateway offer an immediate and practical solution for respiratory infection management. These tools are designed for effortless adoption by patients, including those with limited digital skills, providing a robust platform for addressing infectious diseases like COVID-19.

Commitment to Public Health

A company representative noted,
"With the growing emphasis on ICT-driven remote medical services across the healthcare sector, this solution will provide immediate and effective responses to infectious diseases, contributing to public health improvement and strengthening national emergency response capabilities."

Continued Leadership in Healthcare Digitalization

This announcement follows People and Technology’s recent selection as a participant in the Ministry of Health and Welfare’s “Virtual Environment-Based Hospital Operations Technology Development” and “Smart Hospital Leading Model Development Support Project.” The company continues to cement its position as a leading developer of hospital digitalization (DX) solutions.

People and Technology remains dedicated to advancing smart healthcare systems that meet the evolving needs of the global medical industry.
