Evondos Group announces the successful completion of an asset deal with NE Device SW Oy, whose flagship product Vitacam™ is a software-as-medical device for measuring vital physiological parameters. The deal became effective from August 30th, 2024 and under the terms of the agreement, both parties agreed to not disclose further details. Vitacam™ will enable Evondos to support home care workflows and further free up nursing time for care.

Clinical collaborations with several teaching hospitals and universities in Finland and the United Kingdom have been crucial to the development and validation of Vitacam and will continue to be so.
Over the coming months, the organization will work exclusively with customers to streamline workflows for nurses and engage senior citizens in their own health.
Evondos Group’s automated medication dispensing solutions enable a very high levels of adherence and help care organizations provide care in an effective and meaningful way. The combination of Evondos solutions and Vitacam vital signs monitoring, will support independent living at home by streamlining care workflows even further.
