Clinical monitoring and alarm management

Keep even the most mobile clinician in the loop by displaying near-real-time patient data from connected medical devices on their smart device and/or dashboard. Help ensure that alarm notifications are filtered and sent to the right recipients. Help clinicians save time with configurable buttons, automatic escalation and customisable task management. Like all Ascom solutions, our clinical monitoring and alarm management solution is device- and platform-independent - and is backed by our solution lifecycle support.

Optimise patient alarms and improve your response

Ascom’s scalable solution for clinical monitoring and alarm management lets you send alerts from existing third-party devices and systems to a team’s range of mobile devices. Clinicians can rest assured that they won’t miss a patient alarm - due to Ascom’s alarm management and filtering. At the same time, you can optimise workflows to improve response times.

Patient monitoring

Ascom’s clinical monitoring and alarm management solution (CMAMS) is interoperable with monitoring devices. Near-real-time vitals data can be displayed on PC monitors, dashboards and/or clinicians’ smartphones. Clinical data from multiple third-party medical devices can be transferred to the patient record and, regardless of their location, clinicians always have the data to hand.

Get fast near-real time data

For quick patient response times, you can use Myco 4 smartphones to have alarms and patient monitoring information sent to multiple clinicians – even from third-party devices. Multimodal alerting also helps minimize alarm fatigue and stress as clinicians can quickly and easily identify the type of alert and the urgency of the response.

Ascom Healthcare Platform highlights

Interoperable

Vendor-neutral, interoperable with existing and planned medical devices and communication systems.

Empower clinicians

Clinicians get context-rich, near-real-time data that is needed to make better care decisions.

Patient outcomes

Fast, targeted and informed responses by the right people at the right time can have a significant positive impact on patient satisfaction and recovery. 

Quieter workplaces

Filtered alerting and messaging helps improve productivity and staff morale. Calmer environments can also enhance staff satisfaction.

Scalable

Our solutions adapt to meet changing needs. They are scalable from an on-site system for a single department/ward, through to a multi-site hospital.

Solution support

From initial planning with Ascom Clinical Consultants through to installation, solution lifecycle support and training.

Crucially, the technology development work was done by clinicians instead of to clinicians. It meant we had genuine engagement with nurses and other stakeholders as we carefully planned the hospital from the start – taking in the views of estates, IT, domestic staff, porters, admin, allied health and medical staff
