In medical care environments such as hospitals, laboratories and clinics, providing quality patient care is high priority. This mandate is challenged, however by several issues: reduced staffing, budget freezes, and the need to do more with less. Device networking can be a key factor in maintaining excellent patient care, by facilitating data sharing, remote patient monitoring and reducing support costs.
While most hospitals and medical facilities have modern networks and equipment, there are legacy devices being used every day that cannot connect to networks for data sharing and remote management. Precidia's serial networking adapters connect these legacy devices to an ethernet LAN/WAN via their serial interface, converting the data to ethernet for accessibility from the network. Available in one port and multi-port versions, our customers and partners rely on these low cost adapters to easily network medical devices such as blood analysers, nurse call systems and infusion pumps.
This simple tool can save time and money, facilitating data sharing, remote patient monitoring and device management. Facility staff can remotely access point-of-care devices for diagnostics, data sharing and technical support. The result is that health care services can improve care delivery and reduce costs through IP-based machine-to-machine communications.
