In a unique collaboration that signifies a monumental shift in emergency medical services, Artemis Hospitals and MeduLance have unveiled one of Gurugram’s first 5G-enabled advanced ambulances at a Press Meet held at the Artemis Hospitals Auditorium, Sector – 51, Gurugram.This groundbreaking initiative is set to transform emergency care by harnessing the power of next-gen 5G connectivity, AI-driven diagnostics and real-time telemedicine. To ensure a quicker and more effective response during critical moments.
The launch of this advanced ambulance is part of Artemis Hospital’s dedication to adopting the latest technology to enhance healthcare services. It also introduces the hospital’s new campaign, THE POWER OF 3, which promises to set a new standard in emergency services: Ambulance queries answered in 3 bells, ambulance dispatched from hospital in 3 minutes and ER assistance begins within 30 seconds of the patient’s pickup. The 5G-enabled ambulance is more than just a vehicle; it’s a mobile extension of the emergency department, fully equipped and supercharged with 5G. It lets you have video consultations in real time, send live vital signs and get expert advice while you’re on your way. This integration helps hospitals get ready for patients and speed up clinical decisions. With rapid data transfer, serious situations like heart attacks, strokes, or trauma are dealt with right away. Every second is important in emergency medicine and this technology enables us to act swiftly, intelligently, and ultimately, save more lives. In India, an estimated 24,012 people die daily due to delays in receiving medical assistance. A study by AIIMS and ICMR found that only 10.8% of patients reached appropriate health facilities within the critical first hour of symptom onset.
As Dr Devlina Chakravarty Managing Director, Artemis Hospitals aptly shares, “This initiative will set a new benchmark for emergency care in India, ensuring that every patient receives timely and accurate care, no matter where they are. In a country where millions of lives are lost due to delays in medical treatment, this technology is a game-changer.”
In emergencies like heart attacks, strokes, or trauma, time is very important. With 5G, important information like heart rate, oxygen levels and blood pressure is sent from the ambulance to the hospital right away, allowing for quick and informed care. The ambulance with 5G and AI keeps an eye on and analyses patient data in real time. AI finds patterns and tells paramedics about important changes so they can act right away. This smart integration turns the ambulance into a “mobile ER,” which means that decisions can be made and life saving actions can be taken faster before the patient even gets to the hospital.
“Medulance is proud to partner with Artemis Hospital to launch a 5G-enabled advanced ambulance, marking a milestone in our shared commitment to transforming emergency healthcare in India. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Artemis team for their trust, collaboration and vision in driving this pioneering step forward,” said Pranav Bajaj, Co-Founder & CEO, Medulance Healthcare.
