Helsinki’s Vuosaari Health and Well-being Centre will be piloting MedicubeX e-Health station for a year. Clients can use the autonomous self-check station to take pre-agreed health measurements before attending their appointment with a medical professional. When the necessary measurements are taken in advance, there is more time available for other matters at the appointment.
The autonomous self-check station allows clients to measure their blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, temperature, weight and body composition. In addition, an electrocardiogram (ECG) can be taken to measure the heart’s activity. The client receives a printout of the measurement results containing no personal information. The measurements take about ten minutes.
“Innovations like the MedicubeX e-Health Station are welcome in health stations. I believe in the readiness of our clients to start using new technologies like this. Introducing the autonomous health-check station also contributes to the efficiency of our services,” says Timo Lukkarinen, Medical Director of Health Stations in Helsinki.
Introducing the autonomous health-check station also contributes to the efficiency.
The pilot will run for a year. It is part of the City of Helsinki’s development and testing platform activities, which aim to develop future well-being services together with partners. Helsinki offers a trial platform for testing, developing and scaling up new innovations.

MedicubeX is a Helsinki-based digital health startup, founded in 2020. The company is developing the world’s first e-Health Station to help clinics and hospitals further improve quality of care and efficiency. Piloting the self-check station in a real-user environment at the Vuosaari Health and Well-being Centre is a continuation of the company’s product development in the Health Incubator Helsinki incubator programme.
MedicubeX is developing the world’s first fully autonomous e-Health station.
“We are delighted that Helsinki has taken the opportunity to test the device we have developed. Together, we can offer clients a new way to monitor and manage their health. The MedicubeX e-Health station is the world’s first fully autonomous device generating measurement results that healthcare professionals can use to assess their client’s health and the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. An even more advanced version of the autonomous self-check station will be released in autumn 2023,” says Doctor Vili Kostamo, CEO at MedicubeX.
