Dr. Temi, The Autonomous Robot Will See You Now

It seems we’re just at the start of robots in healthcare.  We see them moving around supplies.  We see robots working in the pharmacy.  Plus, we have a long list of robots doing virtual tasks.  When I came across the Dr. Temi robot, it was the first application of an autonomous robot to assist nurses and doctors that I’d seen. At the HIMSS annual conference, we sat down with Yaron Yoels, CMO at Temi Robot, to learn more about Dr. Temi, an autonomous robot for patient care.  What’s cool about this robot is that it doesn’t need a nurse to get to the bedside.  The robot can go to the room requested by the doctor autonomously where they can do a telemedicine visit with the patient using the doctor’s cell phone or computer. While Dr. Temi has a high resolution camera for telemedicine and things like wound care, it also comes built in with a blood pressure cuff, pulse oximeter, 5 lead ekg, digital stethoscope, and can do continuous temperature.  All of these devices are connected to the robot which can communicate the findings remotely to the doctor or nurse that needs the information or on the robot’s screen. Another cool feature of Dr. Temi is that it can follow the doctor or nurse autonomously as the doctor or nurse walks around.  The Temo Robot is being used in hospitals, nursing homes, and home care.  Check out the demo of Dr. Temi to see it in action and to learn more.
