Wireless Patient Monitoring

RTX help B2B customers in the healthcare sector by integrating wireless technology into critical patient care solutions. Our wireless technology enables seamless and reliable patient monitoring infrastructure and devices.

The situation: Importance of Wireless Technology in Patient Monitoring

In healthcare, it is essential to monitor patients' vitals closely and be alerted to any change in their condition. This requires the transfer of patient critical data from a variety of devices and sensors to a monitoring station ensuring healthcare providers are constantly informed. Using wireless patient monitoring enables greater patient mobility and independence by eliminating wired connections, allowing patients to be moved and move freely while being continuously monitored.

The solution: Wireless Patient Monitoring Infrastructure

Through collaboration with our customers, RTX technology platform offers plug-and-play infrastructure access points, repeaters, and modules that can be embedded in customers’ solutions, including patient-worn devices and near-patient monitors. Patient data is transferred from bedside monitors or patient-worn devices via access points directly to their central monitoring stations, where information becomes readable and accessible to hospital staff in real time.

RTX’s wireless solutions are designed, manufactured, assembled, and delivered as standards-compliant modules, allowing for quick and easy integration into our customers' products and systems. RTX use secure medical frequency bands, for example, the protected WMTS (Wireless Medical Telemetry Service) frequency band.

The impact: Easy Integration and Improved Patient Care

Using a wireless infrastructure simplifies installation by eliminating wiring, reducing setup time and complexity, leading to faster deployment and minimal disruption to hospital operations. This helps our customers bring commercially and technically attractive healthcare solutions to market faster. 

The RTX solutions are designed to ensure secure and reliable transfer of patient data, minimizing connection issues and reducing downtime in hospitals. The ability to integrate multiple monitoring devices into a single system streamlines the workflow for healthcare staff and improves overall treatment. This increased access to real-time patient data also allows medical professionals to monitor patients more effectively, responding to alarms and trends quickly to improve patient care. Ultimately, having accurate and timely data leads to improved patient outcomes and more efficient use of healthcare resources.
