iLive Connect Launches AI-Enabled Continuous Care

iLive Connect Launches AI-Enabled Continuous Care

India has moved towards preventive and continuous healthcare with the launch of iLive Connect, a doctor-led AI-enabled healthcare ecosystem. The platform is designed to monitor patients round the clock after discharge, detect early signs of deterioration, and reduce avoidable hospitalisations. It combines wearable biosensors, predictive analytics, and real-time clinical supervision to bridge the gap between hospital care and home-based recovery.

What iLive Connect Does

iLive Connect uses a lightweight biosensor patch and a wristband to continuously collect health data. The information is transmitted to a central command centre monitored by doctors 24/7. The system is intended for seniors, chronic disease patients, and recently discharged individuals who need ongoing observation without frequent hospital visits.

Key Health Parameters Monitored

The platform tracks hospital-grade physiological indicators, including:

  • Two-lead ECG
  • Heart rate and heart rate variability
  • Respiratory rate
  • Oxygen saturation
  • Body temperature
  • Blood pressure trends
  • Physical activity and posture
  • Sleep metrics, fatigue levels, and fall detection

These readings help doctors identify deterioration hours or days before symptoms become severe.

Clinical Oversight and Emergency Response

The system is doctor-led rather than only user-facing. Trained clinicians and AI algorithms analyse trends, detect warning signals, and intervene early. Doctors can contact patients proactively, adjust treatment, send digital prescriptions, and trigger emergency responses when needed. The platform also integrates ambulance support and location tracking for rapid transfer to the nearest suitable hospital.

Validation, Usability, and Impact

The wearable devices are FDA-approved and CE-certified. They are waterproof and designed for daily use, including bathing. In a 10-week observational study involving over 410 patients, the platform reported a 76 per cent reduction in repeat hospitalisations. The model marks a shift from episodic treatment to continuous, preventive care supported by technology and clinical supervision.
