Swasthya Slate: Health Tablet

 Developed by Kanav Kahol, who developed the device with the help of grants from Public Health Foundation of India and other such organizations.The kit consists of a digital thermometer, a BP monitor, an easy to use heart rate sensor, an ECG system, a blood sugar monitor, and a water quality unit. The whole system has to be connected with an interface that sends all the diagnostics to any android mobile device via Bluetooth stream or USB connection.
A complete Swasthya Slate kit costs USD 800 (approximately Rs. 53,000) with the tablet.

Now, at least five billion of us who lack access to quality diagnostics. We develop medical technology only for the top 1% and wait for the trickle-down effect to take place. This process should be reversed.

So,what could be done?
the answer is "swasthya tab" medical device that can complete 33 common diagnostic tests in about 45 minutes.it is an instantaneous system. So it really helps in the sense that you don’t have to wait for days and hours to know that you have dengue. You can find out instantly and begin your treatment.
As We don’t have enough doctors and lab technicians in India, we are seeking help from front line health workers like ASHAs and ANMs – people who travel the last mile and help provide that link within the healthcare system. We want to empower these health workers. They are the ones giving advice to expecting mothers in rural India, telling them if they need referral and so much more.”
