UNDP delivers the first in a series of robots to the National Hospital for Tropical Diseases. Learn how Ohmni Robot protects frontline health workers, advancing telehealth and telemedicine in Vietnam.
Handing over the Robots to the Hospital, UNDP Resident Representative in Viet Nam Caitlin Wiesen said: “These Robots provide safe interface between the doctor and the patient for diagnoses and they enable doctors to see far more patients at a time. They are fully automatic and can be managed from a large distance and provided the added function of tele-medicine and tele-training, that will be very important for the interface between the National Hospital and hospitals in rural areas.” She added that the intention was not to replace existing doctors and nurses, it was to complement and to provide safety in highly infectious context.
