[Request a quote](#contact-form) [Image: Promotal MedConnect telehealth backpack] ## What the backpack makes possible A nurse on a rural round arrives at an isolated patient's home. She puts on her backpack, enters the house, and within one minute, the digital stethoscope is connected, the vital signs monitor is ready, and the doctor appears on the tablet. The patient no longer needs a 45-minute drive to see a doctor. [Image: MedConnect telehealth backpack worn by a nurse] [Image: Nurse on screening visit] The nurse measures blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse and temperature. She places the digital stethoscope on the chest — the doctor hears the auscultation live. Vitals appear automatically in the patient record. In 15 minutes, the doctor has enough information to decide: renew the treatment, schedule a full exam with the kit, or refer to a specialist via tele-expertise. The backpack is designed as an entry point. You start with vitals and auscultation. When your needs evolve — ECG, dermatoscopy, biological analysis — you upgrade to the kit without changing platforms. Your patient data, your settings, your workflow: everything stays. Same platform, same subscription. Only the instruments change.

The backpack is the lightest form factor (< 3 kg) and fastest to deploy. It covers vitals and auscultation. The kit (~8 kg) adds 12-lead ECG, dermatoscope, otoscope and bioanalyzer for a complete clinical examination. Both use the exact same MedConnect software platform. Does the backpack allow a complete clinical exam? No. The backpack covers vital signs (blood pressure, SpO2, pulse, temperature), auscultation (digital stethoscope) and rapid screening. For 12-lead ECG, dermatoscopy, otoscopy and biological analysis, you need the kit or cart. The backpack is designed as an entry point to telemedicine — you can upgrade to the kit at any time. Is the software the same as on the kit and cart? Yes, the exact same MedConnect platform. Video teleconsultation, patient records, prescriptions, insurance billing, AI scribe, Elara, Omnidoc tele-expertise — everything is identical. Only the physical instruments change. If you move from backpack to kit, your patient data stays accessible. Does the backpack work without internet? Yes. MedConnect offers an asynchronous mode: collect vital data offline, and the doctor reviews it when connectivity is available. A 4G/5G dongle is available as an option for areas with mobile coverage. Can you upgrade from backpack to kit or cart? Yes. The software subscription is hardware-independent. Switch form factors without losing data or changing platforms. All past examinations remain in the patient record. That's the advantage of a unified platform. What is the delivery timeline? 2 to 4 weeks (hardware + configuration + training). Each backpack is assembled and configured in France before shipping. ## Request a quote Our team will provide a personalized quote and help you choose the right form factor for your needs. नाम ईमेल * फ़ोन संदेश सबमिट करें आपका संदेश सफलतापूर्वक सबमिट किया गया है, हम जल्द से जल्द आपसे संपर्क करेंगे। एक त्रुटि हुई! क्या आपने सभी फ़ील्ड भरे हैं?
