The
Unified Gateway (QP-988P) is a gateway program allowing ios devices to access a
real-time patient monitoring network with links to Life Scope patient
monitors and central nurse stations installed in a hospital. As only the
central monitors are equipped to respond to remote access commands,
remote interaction with the patient monitors is not possible.
Users using a iPad or iPhone can download the ViTrac
app from Apple's App store to access any installed Unified Gateway IIS
Web Server. A demonstration mode is available to better evaluate its
usefulness.
The
software program must be installed using a stand-alone server PC unit (and
not inside the PC unit of the Central Nurse Station), incurring a higher cost to provide the connectivity compared to
competitors (in addition to space requirement).
The
above image shows how remote ios devices can access the Unified Gateway Server through the Internet. The
Unified Gateway PC Server has a separate network link to the
real time patient monitoring network which has the Central Nurse
Station.
To protect the Central Nurse Station from unauthorized access, dialing in using a VPN router is mandatory.
Note the Vitrac app is only available for the Apple iOS but not the Android operating system.
