These conditions lead to delayed diagnostics, reactive rather than proactive care, and overcrowded wards. The consequences are profound: more than 1.2 million children die each year due to inadequate quality of care\u00b9, and 231 million people face catastrophic health expenditures\u00b2. To close these gaps sustainably, health systems require scalable solutions for continuous patient monitoring \u2014 an area that represents a global market of around \u20ac43 billion.<\/p>\n<h3><span data-text-color=\"primary\">Solution<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goal3.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GOAL 3<\/a> has developed IMPALA, a connected-care platform designed specifically for hospitals in hospitals in low- and middle-income countries where patient monitoring often depends on manual checks and paper records. IMPALA brings together multi-patient monitoring, diagnostics, and data intelligence to strengthen clinical response and to provide health authorities with insights for building effective and resilient healthcare systems. It strongly reduces mortality rates, strengthens clinical response, and delivers policymakers the insights needed to build efficient healthcare. The platform is already in clinical use across several countries and shows a strong conversion rate from pilot deployments into regular hospital operations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-550440545\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1291344372\" class=\"col medium-10 small-12 large-10\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_845608641\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" style=\"margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1439\" src=\"https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"IMPALA Clinical Support System\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-1536x863.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fa-se.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/IMPALA-Clinical-Support-System-2048x1151.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_845608641 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1291344372 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px -36px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1237143956\" class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t<div id=\"gap-1431732474\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1431732474 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<h3><span data-text-color=\"primary\">The team behind GOAL 3<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">GOAL 3 is led by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/niek-versteegde-4b236320\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dr. Niek Versteegde<\/a> (CEO, MD tropical medicine), supported by a complementary leadership team in finance, R&amp;D, clinical research, and commercial health innovation.
