M-Connect IT solutions from Mindray

Hospital IT has been a widely discussed subject during recent years. This is quite concurred already that this should be implemented beyond HIS and should be scalable to meet future demands. Here scalability should be taken as expansion to other departments, other equipment, or other branches of a hospital, etc.

Though every department has different needs in terms of level of IT integration and different equipment and set of users, but the patient is the same, who is mobile among different departments; so M-Connect becomes more effective as this is centered around the patient. As the patient enters from emergency department his patient ID is created and data gets stored with all diagnosis done. Now if the patient must be transferred to the critical care unit, the patient history and diagnosis is available to CCU to ease out complex workflow and heavy workload. In ICU, there are various equipment attached on that patient, and the complete data is required to make right clinical decision; incomplete or missing data can lead to clinical errors, but while making data accessibility this must be ensured that this is simplified and easily accessible for the clinicians to make faster decisions, which is precisely achieved via Mindray’s M-Connect solution.

Alarm handling is a big concern in critical departments, as various equipment including lifesaving ones like ventilators are handled. For clinical staff, typically under heavy workload, alarm handling becomes a concern and can sometimes lead to important alarms being ignored, or alarm fatigue due to multiple alarms appearing on devices simultaneously. This concern gets addressed with Mindray’s M-Connect for it reduces false alarms and creates an alarm hierarchy for caregivers to address important alarms and handle them in time. This leads to efficiency improvement of staff and a comparatively silent ICU for faster patients’ recovery.

M-Connect is not only limited to inside hospital IT but also provides patient data outside hospital to caregiver for critical patients. As the decision maker is outside clinical environment so he has access to data from all critical devices including patient monitors, ventilators, infusion pumps and patient via camera.

M-Connect is quite open to integrating with other systems to make implementation more economically viable and future ready for hospitals.
