Teltonika offers a telemedicine ecosystem, MyHealth, which includes a data-collecting app for mobile devices, TeltoHeart and the TeltoCare platform which is used by doctors and medical institutions to monitor patients’ data.

Once the first line of production is complete, the devices will be distributed to India, Cyprus, Spain, and Peru, while some of the devices will stay in Lithuania to be tested by private medical institutions. The system will also be available for personal use from sales partners or medical bodies.

According to Teltonika, nearly one billion people around the world suffer from various heart rhythm disorders. Many of them can be spotted early by smart devices and treated effectively.

“The ecosystem of telemedicine devices that will be developed in the future will help to address more persistent problems in the healthcare system. For example, doctors will be able to serve more patients with the ability to analyse data remotely. And by diagnosing diseases at an early stage, treatment costs and hospital workloads can be reduced,” said Teltonika CEO Martynas Osauskas.
