Healthcare providers can also adopt the use of HeartVoice kiosk in their clinics to help patients seamlessly capture their vital signs and keep track of their records. Healthcare providers can in turn obtain real-time and reliable vital signs recordings at a glance and customise an accurate personalised treatment plan for their patients.
