Next Generation of Wireless Infrastructure for Patient Monitoring Secures Life-Critical Patient Data in Hospital Settings

2008-11-20

Welch Allyn, a leading global manufacturer of frontline medical products and solutions, utilizes next generation wireless infrastructure in FlexNet™, a new HIPAA-compliant, real-time continuous patient monitoring solution for acute care settings. The new solution utilizes Welch Allyn's exclusive 802.11a wireless radio technology in patient-related devices, and Aruba Networks' (NASDAQ:ARUN) adaptive wireless LANs as the communication backbone. The resulting system delivers industry-leading immunity to dropout and interference, incorporates 802.11i / WPA2 security to ensure the integrity and privacy of all data, and can be shared among multiple vendors' biomedical applications. Wireless patient monitoring affords hospitals more care and resource utilization options than wired telemetry alternatives.
