The 10BedICU project was started in Mar 2021 in the wake of the Covid-19 delta wave spike in India, in order to create critical care ICU infrastructure in rural and smaller government hospitals. To cut a long story short, today we have created over 200 10BedICUs in government hospitals in 9 states of the country. This is a PPP private-public-partnership, where the 10BedICU group finances the capital expenditure of the project by providing the ICU medical equipment, CARE software system, the TeleICU technology infrastructure, clinical and systems training and community participation support.
The State government signs an MoU with 10BedICU and provides the hospital space and site readiness for ICU installation, the doctors and nursing medical staff, medical supplies, utilities (electricity, water, internet etc). The operating expenditure is borne by the state.
The project consists of 5 components:
If your state would like to participate in the 10BedICU program, please write to Bisoya Loitongbam our national program coordinator at bisoya.loitongbam@egovernments.org
Through your donations we are setting up 40 ICU Units across Karnataka. Each of these ICU Units will have 10 Beds along with Swiss made hybrid ventilators and all other equipments required to provide critical care to the needy.
We have set up 40 10-Bed-ICU Units in 30 districts of Telangana. Several of the new districts did not have any ICU beds even in the Secondary District Hospital. We are also currently planning to launch an IT system to help with the emergency triage process.
The AP 10 Bed ICU project focuses on adding these ICU beds to 2 hospitals in the 13 districts of Andhra Pradesh. We are also looking at implementing the Covid Management Tech Platform. The doctor connect program to bring in global expert doctors to take ca PMU will be formed with state officers and 10-Bed-ICU members.
The 10BedICU project is trying to meet the Covid Challenges in the state by setting up ICU units in every District Hospital through world-class equipments complemented by a pandemic management technology platform. The technology will register all hospitals, assets, staff and patients, and other stakeholders to help the govt. monitor, facilitate and manage the Covid pandemic effectively. The technology will also help in rolling out Tele ICU across districts. JNIMs, the state tertiary hospital, will act as the tele-consultation hub.
