Medical device manufacturer bridges digital divide in medical settings with platform-based connected and configurable solutions
Welch Allyn, a leading global provider of medical diagnostic devices headquartered in Skaneateles Falls, NY, will showcase its newest generation of connected solutions designed to address the needs of busy medical practices next month at the 2011 Medica International Trade Fair and Congress in Dusseldorf, Germany. Designed to swiftly gather accurate patient data and transmit it to an electronic medical record (EMR), the new platform-based devices will be on display in hall 9, booth E15.
According to Pascal Gand, vice president, Global Strategic Marketing at Welch Allyn, the high-performance healthcare solutions Welch Allyn will feature at Medica are a direct result of the growing demand for connected and configurable solutions that anticipate and respond to unique healthcare provider needs around the world. The products offer easy-to-use features and options that provide clinicians with access to information they need to provide the best possible patient care.
“The solutions we will feature next month at Medica allow providers to quickly and efficiently collect and record patients’ vital signs, which is important in fast-paced hospital settings,†said Gand. “We have a commitment to fostering high-performance healthcare environments, and our platform-based devices help reduce the chance of transcription errors and the time required to collect patient data—as well as providing all caregivers near-instant access to the most recent patient status.â€
The company will formally introduce a configurable system that integrates nearly 100 years of innovation into one unit including traditional Welch Allyn physical assessment instruments and twenty-first century vital signs documentation technology that electronically captures and transmits patient data to an EMR, enabling improvements in patient safety and clinical decision making and reducing risk to facilities—providing clinicians in non-critical care settings with immediate access to accurate vital signs anytime, anywhere.
“Scalability is having a profound impact on the way we develop our products,†added Gand. “Accuracy, workflow and patient safety are primary concerns in hospitals around the world, and the products we’ll have on display at Medica address each of these issues. We will showcase platform-based solutions that offer greater efficiency and more configurability options to help shape the future of healthcare delivery beyond traditional approaches to connect, manage, and share patient information—and improve patient care in the process.â€
