I am well versed in this area.
You or better still the management need to answer one simple but fundamental question, and a total flaw in this model IMO.
If this was ONLY for the use by trained professionals, as you all like to repeat in chorus, and ONLY for isolated environments, then why put the technology on and IPHONE????
Do you think that a Doctor wants to use their personal phone on dozens of patients per day?
Do you think that they want to sterilize their personal phone from bacterial and viral exposure after every patient's contamination?
Do you (or the management) know the effect of hospital grade agents on equipment designed for continual sterilisation procedures, let alone the degradation effect on non-compliant equipment and materials?
Do you think a consumer phone is designed for repeat sterilisation?
Do you think a specifically designed medical device to accommodate sterilisation would be more appropriate for such use?
Do you think the feature set (microphone, acoustics etc..) would be better designed in a medical device for this specific diagnostic purpose that relying on a third party mobile phone?
Do you think the medical device would be grossly cheaper than a $1000 IPHONE for such purposes?
Do you think the claims that this is for third world countries is flawed based on its use on an expensive mobile phone, and does that demographic have the means to purchase said phone for this very purpose?
Do you think these aspects above where actually even considered in any fashion, before embarking on the journey of putting this in a mobile phone app, using publicly sourced money, or was it a play on the tech boom by a few parties?
Maybe DYOR please and answer.

WTF???? These are phones that are supplied by RAP with their application installed on it!!!!!!! Similarly they supplied phone for the humanitarian organisation for the trials.
