Sharing the Future - Transcending Borders with Remote ICUs in Indonesia and Mexico
Severely ill patients are treated in ICUs, but there's a global shortage of facilities and staff.

A Japanese start-up supports these units by remotely connecting them with Japanese ICU teams. Since 2020, hospital ICUs in 12 developing countries can share patients' medical records, cardiograms and images online. Explore this new medical support project and its focus on ICUs.
