Advanced Robotic Telemedicine

InTouch Vita is a remote presence device component of a total acute care telemedicine solution and most advanced robotic device incorporating an array of intuitive, easy-to-use features that encourage physician adoption and clinical use. It was designed to increase efficiency with its AutoDrive capabilities that enable a remote medical provider to directly control or to automatically direct Vita to move to an intended location. 

InTouch Vita is cleared by the FDA for active patient monitoring that may be needed for taking immediate clinical action. Developed by InTouch Health and iRobot, the InTouch Vita can improve the independence of the remote clinician in managing patient care.

The VITA raises the bar for overseeing patient care remotely and allows doctors to proactively control a situation as if they were there.

An enhanced navigation capability that enables the VITA to better manage driving and navigation elements so the health care professional can put more focus on patient care tasks. State‐of‐the-art mapping and Obstacle Detection Obstacle Avoidance (ODOA) technologies allow safe, fast and highly flexible navigation in a clinical environment. This capability will allow a remote clinician or bedside nurse to send the VITA to a target destination with a single click, enabling a number of breakthrough clinical applications. A new, simple to use iPad user interface will enable quick and easy navigation to anywhere the VITA needs to go, as well as interaction with the patient, family and care team.

Real-time access to important clinical data, enabling a range of new workflow improvements for physicians, nurses and other patient care team members. For example, the VITA can be integrated with live patient data from the electronic medical record and is equipped with the ability to connect with diagnostic devices such as otoscopes and ultrasound. It comes equipped with the latest electronic stethoscope.

InTouch Health envisions that the expandable VITA platform will provide additional value in orchestrating team-wide care, as a clinical assistant to enhance efficiency and quality, and as a patient advocate to enhance the care experience.
