The technology is patent pending and FDA cleared and can work with many portable mobile devices...GE Health Care is one vendor working with this technology...it is making for better physician/nurse conversations on patient care as the physician has the visual right in front of his eyes. Currently this is being used for OBGYN, but other technologies for other areas are being developed. A VPN gateway is used to log in to the system....BD
With a goal of setting a new standard of care for remote surveillance,
AirStrip Technologies is attempting to expand availability and reach strategic relationships with mobile device manufacturers, cell phone carriers and vendor partners for its signature product.
As part of its expansion plan, AirStrip Technologies is now establishing vendor neutrality after initially partnering exclusively with one vendor to market the FDA-cleared AirStrip OB. This software application provides obstetricians with virtual real-time, remote access to critical waveform data from hospital labor and delivery units (L&D) on their PDA or Smart Phone anywhere the physician has a cell phone connection. It will soon be available through a variety of perinatal vendors.
"This is accomplished through the AirStrip OBTM software, which is installed onto a mobile handheld device and utilizes a wireless internet connection (cell, WiFi, Bluetooth) to receive the patient’s data. Physicians then use PDA’s, SmartPhones or PC's that are loaded with AirStrip OBTM software to remotely and securely access real-time and historical waveform and numeric data via a wireless internet connection. The ability to view this critical data at will, and not rely on nursing interpretations over the phone, allows physicians to be proactive, troubleshoot problems before they arise and provide better overall, more comprehensive and more efficient medical care for their patients."
