Welcome to AXREM Insights, where hosts Melanie Johnson and Sally Edgington explore advancements in healthcare through MedTech and innovation. In this special episode on the AXREM Patient Monitoring Manifesto, they interview Yasmeen Mahmood, a business leader at Philips UKI. Yasmeen, who joined Philips through a graduate scheme, has extensive experience in sales, marketing, and business roles within the patient monitoring space. She is also actively involved in Philips' well-being and inclusion committees.

During the discussion, Yasmeen highlights the significance of consistency across the NHS, as outlined in the manifesto. She explains that inconsistencies in infrastructure and procurement practices can lead to unequal patient care and delays in acquiring necessary technology. This affects patient outcomes and overall care quality, emphasising the need for standardised processes and investment in infrastructure to ensure all patients receive top-notch care, regardless of location.

Yasmeen also addresses the potential of patient monitoring technology to alleviate capacity issues within the NHS. By enabling early intervention and facilitating quicker discharges through remote monitoring and virtual wards, technology can help manage the limited number of hospital beds and improve patient experiences. The conversation underscores the importance of connectivity and data-driven decisions in enhancing patient care and the need for collaborative efforts within the industry to drive meaningful change.
