Avel eCare ICU provides ongoing monitoring, on-demand consultation and immediate intervention that hospitals need for critically ill patients.

Avel’s interactive video, decision-support software and remote monitoring technology allow the ICU critical care team to monitor trends in patients’ vital signs. Meanwhile, sophisticated predictive analytics recognize and alert to subtle changes in patient status – allowing local care teams to respond faster when a critical change occurs.
