TOKYO -- Japan's Covid-19 situation is speeding up the adoption of remote support systems by hospitals with understaffed intensive care units, with one medical startup pushing the trend.
Tomoyuki Nakanishi founded T-ICU in 2016 to help hospitals boost their ICU capacity with online support from the startup's team of medical specialists. T-ICU currently works with about 19 institutions, but Nakanishi, an ICU doctor himself, said the company has been receiving more inquiries from hospitals since the novel coronavirus outbreak.
