People&Technology (PNT), a specialist provider of medical AX/DX-based smart hospital service platforms, announced on the 6th that it has deployed a real-time patient monitoring solution at Damyang Sarang Hospital (Hospital Director Ui-min Cho) in Jeollanam-do.
According to the company, this deployment marks a case in which the smart hospital environment, previously concentrated mainly in the greater Seoul metropolitan area, is expanding to a key hospital in the Jeollanam-do region, drawing attention as a contribution to accelerating the digital transformation of regional healthcare.
Damyang Sarang Hospital serves as a key hospital meeting the medical needs of local residents in Jeollanam-do. Through this smart hospital solution deployment, the hospital has laid the groundwork to raise the level of inpatient safety management and provide more reliable medical services.
The deployed solution consists of the patch-type wearable ECG device HiCardi, the portable pulse oximeter CHARM II™, and the V3 Gateway, which receives Bluetooth signals and relays data to the server. The system has been installed in Wards 3 and 5 at Damyang Sarang Hospital, and the collected biometric data, including ECG, heart rate, and oxygen saturation, is transmitted via the V3 Gateway to People&Technology's smart hospital platform IndoorPlus+ SmartCare for integrated management.
The key differentiator of the real-time patient monitoring solution built on the IndoorPlus+ SmartCare platform is its vendor-neutral platform architecture, which is not tied to any single manufacturer. Beyond simply offering freedom of device selection, it is an operations-centered platform designed so that ward operations and clinical workflows are not constrained by the structure of any particular device. This is a point of differentiation from existing wearable-centric solutions. Hospitals can flexibly configure their systems as operating environments change, securing genuine, field-based operational autonomy. This deployment at Damyang Sarang Hospital, which integrates both HiCardi and CHARM II to manage ECG and pulse-oximetry data on a single platform, stands as a representative case in which the multi-device integration capability of this vendor-neutral platform has been realized in an actual hospital setting.
As a result, Damyang Sarang Hospital is now able to track patients' biometric data in real time around the clock, enabling swift response in emergency situations, while medical staff can focus more fully on patient care. The deployment is expected to serve as a practical model for smart hospital implementation at similarly sized regional hospitals going forward.
Damyang Sarang Hospital Director Ui-min Cho said, "We needed a system that could manage the condition of inpatients in a more systematic and safe way. We expect that adopting this real-time patient monitoring solution will support medical staff's clinical judgment while strengthening both patient safety and trust."
