MD Onboard is expanding its role in aviation health innovation through two technology partnerships with CardioSecur, a German-based developer of advanced mobile ECG technology, and HPE Innovation, a U.S. company specializing in artificial intelligence-driven biometric monitoring.
CardioSecur allows for real-time cardiac monitoring and transmitting “clinical-grade 12-lead ECG readings” to MD Onboard’s Command Center for immediate review.
“Our partnership with CardioSecur represents a major leap forward in the advancement of aviation healthcare,” said MD Onboard chief growth officer Wehda El Aridi. “By combining our aviation-specific medical expertise with CardioSecur’s revolutionary ECG technology, we are enhancing our ability to diagnose and manage in-flight medical events with greater speed, accuracy, and confidence.”
CardioSecur CEO Felix Brand noted that the joint approach provides access to advanced diagnostics and expert advisory at altitude. “Our technology merges high-tech diagnostics with unparalleled ease of use—helping reduce unnecessary diversions and increasing safety for every flight,” he said.
Meanwhile, HPE Innovation will also for integrating touchless, AI-driven biometric tracking into MD Onboard’s mobile platform. The technology uses camera sensors to measure heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation with medical-grade accuracy. “Integrating HPE Innovation’s non-contact, AI-driven biometrics into our app represents the future of proactive crew and passenger health,” said MD Onboard CEO Grant Jeffery.
The system allows operators to conduct preflight wellness screening, continuous in-flight monitoring, and postflight assessments without additional hardware. “We’re proud to support safer skies through accessible and accurate biometric intelligence,” said HPE Innovation founder and CEO&nbsp;Nicholas Harris.
