SKOP was conceptualized during the first lockdown in France, in April 2020. During this period, people with Covid-19 were in intensive care or sent home without any possibility of medical follow-up, due to the risk of infection. To help mitigate this, WeMed wanted to create a stethoscope that allows access to a truly remote medical diagnosis, to help substitute the visit to the doctor’s office. The goal was to make SKOP universal, in its ease of use, connecting to all tablets or phones, as well as telemedicine and communication platforms such as FaceTime, WhatsApp, and Zoom.
