Medigo AI-powered health screening robot for preventive healthcare screening


Built and engineered in India, Medigo Robot introduces a scalable healthcare robotic solution designed to support early detection and routine health monitoring. The AI-powered system enables individuals to assess 65+ health parameters and receive a structured health report in approximately 3 minutes.


Preventive healthcare depends on early and reliable screening, yet access to screening infrastructure remains limited across many regions. Globally, 537 million adults live with diabetes and nearly 45% remain undiagnosed, while 1.28 billion people are affected by hypertension, much of it undetected in low- and middle-income countries. Medigo addresses this gap by enabling rapid health screening with up to 95% screening accuracy, delivering technology-enabled assessments that can be deployed across hospitals, transit hubs, corporate campuses, educational institutions, and community health programs.

 
Through an AI-guided interface and integrated medical sensors, the health screening robot captures key health indicators and generates reports that can be delivered digitally or printed on-site. Screenings can include blood glucose and HbA1c for diabetes, blood pressure and ECG monitoring, cholesterol and lung function tests, infectious disease screenings such as HIV and TB, and mental health assessments including ASD. Multilingual interaction and telemedicine connectivity also allow users to consult remote medical professionals when further evaluation is required.


By combining robotics, artificial intelligence, and connected healthcare technologies, Medigo introduces a practical model for robotic health screening infrastructure, enabling healthcare providers, governments, and institutions to conduct preventive health screening programs at scale.


Medigo is the result of years spent building the artificial intelligence capability, engineering depth, and healthcare expertise required to make large-scale screening possible. It was developed with a clear understanding of the environments it will operate in, the populations it will serve, and the institutions it will work alongside. Its real impact lies in the millions of lives that can benefit from earlier detection and better access to care. With proprietary AI systems, centralized data infrastructure, and a growing installed base, each deployment strengthens the foundation we are building as we work toward creating one of the most important health screening infrastructures in the emerging world.” Manav Patel, Managing Director, Kody Technolab Limited.  


As healthcare systems increasingly prioritize preventive care and early detection, Medigo Robot provides a scalable platform for rapid health screening and supports efforts to expand healthcare access across both urban and underserved regions.

Advancing Minimally Invasive Cardiac Care Through Robotic Technology for Faster Recovery and Greater Precision

  • Narayana Health City Completes 100+ Robotic Cardiac Surgeries in a Single Month

  • Advanced robotic technology is enabling surgeons to perform complex heart procedures with unprecedented precision and minimally invasive approaches.

 

Narayana Health City has successfully completed over 100 robotic cardiac surgeries in a single month, marking a significant milestone in advanced heart care. The achievement reflects not only exceptional surgical expertise and clinical precision, but also the seamless integration of cutting-edge robotic technology to deliver consistently strong patient outcomes across adult and paediatric cases.

At Narayana Health’s Robotic Cardiac Surgery Milestone Event (L to R): Dr. Rahul Rao; Dr. Praveen R Tambrallimath; Dr. Raghu MG; Dr. Thiruthani Kumaran M M; Dr. Kiran K


Among the complex procedures performed during the month was the case of a 45-year-old patient who had previously undergone Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG), commonly known as heart bypass surgery, and later presented with a tumour in the upper chamber of the heart that can obstruct blood flow if left untreated. In patients who have already undergone bypass surgery, reopening the chest through a conventional redo sternotomy can be particularly risky, as the existing grafts (blood vessels surgically connected to reroute blood around blocked arteries) may be damaged during the procedure. In this case, the patient’s earlier bypass grafts were still functioning well, making a traditional surgical approach potentially dangerous. To reduce this risk, the surgical team adopted a robotic assisted minimally invasive approach. The operation was performed through a small incision on the right side of the chest using robotic instruments and high-definition visualisation, allowing access to the heart without reopening the breastbone.

Dr. Raghu M G, Senior Consultant – Cardiothoracic Surgery, said, “The patient was supported on a heart–lung machine through peripheral blood vessels, and the procedure was carried out using a specialised technique that allows the heart to temporarily quiver instead of being completely stopped using conventional clamping methods. Using robotic precision, the team accessed the left atrium and successfully removed the tumour while preserving the surrounding heart structures and valve function. The patient recovered well following the surgery and was discharged in stable condition.”


Another notable case involved a 46-year-old patient whose mitral valve had become severely narrowed due to rheumatic heart disease, affecting normal blood flow through the heart. Using a robotic approach, the surgical team replaced the diseased mitral valve with a mechanical mitral valve. The advanced system provided high-definition 3D visualisation and enhanced precision, allowing the team to operate with greater control inside the heart.


Dr. Thiruthani Kumaran M M, Senior Consultant – Adult Cardiac Surgery, explained, “The robotic platform provides exceptional surgical precision, allowing surgeons to operate with greater control while avoiding conventional sternotomy (traditional open-chest surgery through the breastbone). For patients, this approach can translate into less post-operative pain, reduced blood loss, quicker recovery and improved cosmetic outcomes. The procedure was completed successfully, and the patient was discharged in stable condition.”


Another remarkable case involved a 69-year-old woman diagnosed with coronary artery disease along with a rare condition called dextrocardia with situs inversus, where the heart and other internal organs are positioned as a mirror image of the normal anatomy. Evaluation confirmed significant blockages in the heart’s blood vessels along with reduced heart function. Despite the anatomical complexity, the cardiac team performed a robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass surgery. The robotic platform provided enhanced visualisation and surgical precision, which was particularly important in this case because the patient’s heart was positioned on the opposite side of the chest. 


Robotic cardiac surgery is transforming the way we treat coronary artery disease. In a recent case involving a 57-year-old gentleman with complex coronary artery disease, our team successfully performed three bypass grafts using robotic-assisted techniques.


With regards to this, Dr. Kiran K, Senior Consultant – Adult Cardiac Surgery, said, “This advanced approach enables us to treat critical blockages with high precision through very small incisions, avoiding the need for a large chest opening or cutting the breastbone. One of the major advantages of this technique is the minimalistic scar, as the surgery is performed through small keyhole incisions without cutting the bone (sternum).


For patients, this translates into less pain, minimal blood loss, faster recovery, and an earlier return to normal life. With advancements in robotic technology and growing surgical expertise, we are now able to offer minimally invasive solutions even for complex coronary artery disease, while replicating the same results as a conventional CABG.”


Dr. Gagan Khullar, Consultant – Adult Cardiac Surgery, shared, “Operating on a patient with dextrocardia and situs inversus presents unique challenges because the heart and surrounding structures are positioned differently from typical anatomy. The robotic platform provides excellent visualisation and precision, allowing us to adapt safely to these anatomical variations. The surgery was completed successfully, and the patient had a smooth recovery and was discharged in stable condition.”


These cases reflect the robust infrastructure and technological integration at Narayana Health’s Cardiology Centre of Excellence. Robotic cardiac surgery requires close coordination between surgical, anaesthesia and technology teams. From pre-operative planning to post-operative recovery, every step is carefully streamlined to ensure precision, safety and faster patient recovery, enabling the centre to scale advanced heart care without compromising on quality.


The milestone also highlights Narayana Health City’s growing reach beyond regional boundaries. Of the patients who underwent robotic cardiac surgery during the month.

  • 35% were from Karnataka

  • 15% from Tamil Nadu

  • 10% from West Bengal

  • 10% from Bangladesh

  • 8% from Jharkhand 

  • 8% from Assam

  • 5% from Andhra Pradesh, followed by states of Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Tripura. This diverse geographical mix underscores the growing confidence patients across India and neighbouring Bangladesh place in the centre’s advanced robotic cardiac capabilities.

 

With continued advancements in robotic cardiac surgery, Narayana Health remains committed to making complex heart procedures less invasive and more accessible, while delivering precise, patient-centric care to individuals and families across India and neighbouring regions.

Livasa Hospitals to Enter Ludhiana with 368-Bed Multi-Speciality Hospital

Livasa Hospitals announces its expansion into Ludhiana with the development of a 368-bed multi-speciality tertiary care hospital, marking a significant step in strengthening its healthcare network across Punjab. The new facility will support Livasa’s long-term vision of expanding its healthcare footprint to nearly 2,000 beds and improving access to advanced medical care for patients across the region.

The Ludhiana hospital is expected to be operational over the next 15-18 months. Livasa Hospitals has undergone a significant phase of transformation in the recent years, strengthening clinical capabilities, investing in advanced medical infrastructure and equipment, and building a robust institutional healthcare platform across Punjab. The Ludhiana expansion marks another important milestone in the network’s growth journey.


The hospital is being developed in partnership with Primewalk Infra Private Limited, a project company associated with OneCrest Infra, on a 9,900+ square yard freehold land parcel with a built-up area of over 3.75 lakh square feet and will be strategically located at Sherpur Chowk along the National Highway, ensuring easy accessibility for patients from Ludhiana and neighbouring districts.


With an overall capital investment of INR 360 crores including the landowner contribution, the Livasa group demonstrates a significant private Healthcare Investment in the region.


Ludhiana, the largest and one of the most economically vibrant cities in Punjab, currently faces a shortage of private healthcare infrastructure, with relatively low private hospital bed availability per 1,000 people compared to other major cities in the state. As a result, many patients are compelled to travel to other cities for specialised treatment. Livasa Hospitals aims to address this gap by bringing high-quality, technology-driven tertiary care services closer to residents of Ludhiana and surrounding regions.


Founded in 2008, Livasa Hospitals currently operates a strong regional healthcare network in Mohali, Amritsar, Nawanshahr (SBS Nagar), Hoshiarpur, and Khanna, offering advanced tertiary and quaternary care across 38+ medical specialties. The network presently has 800+ beds, over 250 senior consultants, 280 ICU beds, 20 modular operation theatres, and 6 advanced cath labs, serving patients across Punjab and neighbouring states. IndiaRF, a leading private equity firm, acquired a controlling stake in the group in September 2023.


With this expansion, Livasa Hospitals will further strengthen its ability to serve Punjab more effectively while continuing to advance its vision of ‘Swasth Punjab.’


Commenting on the expansion, Mr. Anurag Yadav, CEO, Livasa Hospitals, said: “Ludhiana represents a key milestone in Livasa’s growth journey. As one of the most important cities in Punjab, it deserves access to advanced, high-quality healthcare close to home. With our upcoming hospital, we aim to bring our clinical expertise, modern infrastructure, and patient-centric approach to the people of Ludhiana and neighbouring districts. This expansion also strengthens our growing network across Punjab and reflects our commitment to building a trusted healthcare ecosystem for the region.”


Commenting on the expansion, Shantanu Nalavadi, Managing Director of IndiaRF, said, “Livasa has undergone tremendous transformation since our investment two years ago. IndiaRF has since professionalized the management, re-branded the group, and has invested in modernizing the existing facilities and acquiring the advance equipment. As we strengthen our new identity, it is now the right time to execute our expansion strategy by entering the largest city of Punjab – Ludhiana. We remain committed to expand the Livasa’s network through similar opportunities in the region and are actively looking to make more investments in in this platform.”
