Kathmandu, June 5: The Ramon Magsaysay Award recipient Mahabir Pun has said that he was developing a mobile app especially for the patients with paralysis so as to facilitate them in communicating their needs to their caretakers.
According to Pun, a sensor would be placed in the wound of the patients and it would send messages to the mobile app of the caretakers, illustrating the needs and state of the patients based on the information the sensor sends.
Pun believed that with the development of this app, paralysis patients across the world would be benefitted hugely once it is developed.
The sensors would detect the physical and mental conditions of the patients such as hunger, sleepiness, defecation among others, added Pun, describing about the app that is in the offing.
He also shared that a MoU was signed among the Ministry of Health, Nepal Health Research Council and the National Innovation Centre headed by Pun last Friday to implement the new application which is aimed within a year.
Pun informed that the half the work regarding the development of the app was over and two of his assistants were working on it.
The Ramon Magsaysay Award recipient spoke of the need for the cooperation from the Ministry of Health to make it accessible to one and all in need. RSS
