Design Details

Unique Properties: Corensis is a vital measurement platform that enables automation of medical measurements, digitalization of medical records, and increasing access to healthcare services in hospitals, medical centers, or public areas. Thanks to its unique design, the smart voice, and the visual assistant, it allows patients to measure their body temperature, blood oxygenation level, respiratory rate, single-lead ECG, blood pressure, weight and height by themself.
Inspiration: Technology in the medical field has had a massive impact on nearly all processes and practices of healthcare professionals. It helps doctors to improve care delivery, create operational efficiencies, and enhance patient and staff experience. As the healthcare system shifts toward paying for patient outcomes, hospitals will focus on reducing costs, improving quality, and boosting consumer experience.
Research: The optimized feature set of Corensis exactly fulfills the need for measuring the vitals that physicians needed most before the examination. It was ensured that the design is user-friendly and provides unaided usage thanks to its big double-sided handles, comfortable seat and 32 inches led capacitive touch screen. Along with the medical look of the device, a warm design helps in avoiding the appalling atmosphere of hospitals. Additionally, the positioning of the vital measuring devices used in the platform as designed like originals makes the device compelling.
Challenge: Designing a warm-looking compact device with a medical look that allows people of all ages to make their vital measurements easily and quickly by themself, without feeling complexity. Thus, reducing the need for medical staff by increasing access to healthcare services.
Realization and Technology: Features such as medical grade sensors, automated reporting capabilities, HL7 compatibility, transmitting the encoded data to the cloud and hospital servers/databases contribute to digital healthcare services and functionality as a telemedicine platform. Additionally, the outstanding face and speech recognition technologies help users for a seamless and convenient experience.
Operation and Interaction: The patient registers to the unattended vital measurement platform with a facial recognition system or ID number registration. Then, the patient enters his medical history to the digital anamnesis form. After that, the patient measures his/her body temperature, blood oxygenation level, respiratory rate, single-lead ECG, blood pressure, weight, and height. When the measurements are completed, the results are uploaded to the cloud system to be sent to the hospital servers. Before the examination, the doctor can reach the patient’s online report and medical information.
Project Duration and Location: The project started in November 2018 in Istanbul. The unique design and development of Corensis Vital Measurement Kiosk were completed in January 2019, in Istanbul, Turkey. Its unique design belongs to in house innovation team of Arcelik.
