The Slovenian start-up company Mesi has developed a special medical device, the mTABLET, which measures blood pressure, ECG or lung volume on the patient via wireless modules, and stores the results of the measurements in the patient's electronic file, which is in the cloud. This can be done anywhere and at any time by a general practitioner, an angiologist (vascular disease doctor) or a cardiologist. mTABLET will first go to the United States to seek his fortune.
The current practice is that doctors who read EKG, blood pressure or lung volume with spirometry, measurements cannot be saved in electronic patient record. Slovenian mTABLET, which measures all of the above, is capable of this, as it also has the missing piece of technology. The device is assembled tablet and wireless modules, and it works in such a way that the doctor installs the latter on the patient, starts the application for the modules (for example for the ECG) and monitors the measurements on the screen, while the results travel directly to the e-file.

With the mTABLET at the Messiah measure mainly on American market, as e-cartottes are still in their infancy here. On the other side of the pond, operating with them is already a constant practice. But there are postpartum problems, that is inability to save the results of various measurements in the e-file. Entering measurements from medical devices is therefore done manually in these cases, which is time-consuming and not to the liking of doctors. Because it is digitization of health data also on the agenda of the European Union mTABLET will also come in handy in our regions. And not only because it will make the work of doctors and nurses easier and improve healthcare, but it will also reduced paper consumption, which now monitors the healthcare chain at every step.
Electronic file in the cloud will be called mRECORDS, and information about the patient's condition will be available to clinics, hospitals and medical centers at the same time, so that no doctor will wander in the dark anymore. They will manufacture the devices in Slovenia (starting already in 2015), and they are still looking for investors to start production.
