Ernakulam: In a major step toward revolutionizing emergency medical services, Indira Gandhi Co-operative Hospital, Kadavanthra, has launched Kerala’s first 5G Smart Ambulance, equipped with cutting-edge technology to enhance patient care during transit. This innovative addition positions the hospital at the forefront of digital healthcare in the state. The 5G Smart Ambulance is designed to bridge the gap between the accident site and the emergency room, allowing doctors to receive real-time patient data even before the patient arrives at the hospital. Through high-speed 5G connectivity, the ambulance enables live video communication with specialists, remote diagnostics, and instant sharing of vital signs, making pre-hospital care more accurate and faster than ever before. Featuring a fully equipped emergency setup, the ambulance supports critical interventions en route, including cardiac monitoring, defibrillation, oxygen therapy, and telemedicine consultations. This ensures that patients receive prompt, high-quality care within the golden hour, significantly improving outcomes for trauma, cardiac, and stroke cases. The initiative is part of the hospital’s broader mission to integrate advanced technology with compassionate care, ensuring the people of Ernakulam and surrounding regions have access to world-class emergency services. The hospital’s leadership, including Secretary Shri Ajay Tharayil, emphasized their commitment to innovation and community service through such groundbreaking projects. This smart ambulance not only showcases the hospital’s technical excellence but also reflects its vision of bringing healthcare closer to the people, faster and smarter.
