ASELSAN, one of the leading companies in the Turkish defense industry, also implements its technological know-how into solutions in the civilian sector.
In this context, ASELSAN, which has focused on health systems, particularly since the early 2010s, is developing local and national devices and equipment in this field.
Under the presidency of the ASELSAN Transportation, Security, Energy, Automation and Health Systems sector, advanced medical devices, imaging systems and digital health solutions are being developed, thereby strengthening health infrastructure, increasing service quality and contributing to the country's economy.
In 2021, the automated external defibrillator (AED) was launched, which makes it possible to bring the patient back to life with an electric shock in case of sudden cardiac arrest.
The ASELSAN Heartline AED device has so far been installed in about 10,000 centers at home and abroad and has saved the lives of 15 people.
As part of the manual external defibrillator development project, the first desktop prototypes of the device designed for use by healthcare professionals were manufactured and validated.
Live ECG data of the patient can be submitted immediately to the Ministry of Health
A nationally and locally developed IoT (Internet of Things) module has been added to the OED device. Thanks to this module, which communicates with the ASELSAN i-SEE software, the location and activity status of all ASELSAN Heartline AED devices can be remotely monitored 24 hours a day, and in case of an emergency, the live ECG data can be immediately displayed to the patient, according to the Ministry of Health.
Sales of intensive care ventilators that were brought into the country and produced during the pandemic continue.
In 2023, approximately $1.5 million worth of automated external defibrillators and ventilators were exported.
Within the framework of the mobile digital X-ray equipment project, patenting activities of ASELSAN technologies for high image quality, a local image processing algorithm and an ergonomic telescopic arm system with a large angle of rotation are carried out.
In the field of diagnostic systems, research studies started during the pandemic on various virus detection technologies (such as lateral flow, innovative biosensor, optical spectroscopy, FTIR) are continuing.
Manual external defibrillators and heart-lung machines have received various design awards at the iF Design Award, one of the world's most prestigious international design awards.
