Healthcare

MultiTech devices provide the foundational basis OEMs need to create healthcare IoT solutions that had never existed in the past. This new device landscape presents an exciting opportunity for medical manufacturers who want to make the most of increased connectivity for patients.

IoT Healthcare Devices

IoT healthcare devices are transforming how healthcare is delivered. The use of electronic medical devices is increasingly migrating from health care centers to homes. A new set of challenges faces device designers and manufacturers. In the past, it was nearly impossible to conceive of a patient undergoing dialysis in his or her own home, linking remotely to his or her physician for daily blood pressure or glucose checks, or downloading pacemaker activity via a telephone line.

Today, all possibilities are a reality, and the advancement of innumerable more in-home connected medical devices is on the health care horizon. The accessibility of wireless technology, mobile applications and other connectivity platforms facilitates device manufacturers’ ability to make complex IoT healthcare devices available for home use. This trend offers beneficial new opportunities to multiple stakeholders, including added convenience for health care providers; improved care for patients; and cost savings for insurers and government payers.

MultiTech’s key benefits assisting medical equipment OEM providers include:

Domestic manufacturing and supply chain integration
Exceptionally strong lifecycle management
Broad base of core platforms
3PL, controlled products and integration services

One of the advantages of IoT in healthcare is the wide range of possible applications. There are many diseases and conditions that IoT devices can be used to monitor and analyze.

This is by no means a comprehensive list — MultiTech devices provide the foundational basis OEMs need to create healthcare IoT solutions that had never existed in the past. This new device landscape presents an exciting opportunity for medical manufacturers who want to make the most of increased connectivity for patients.

MultiTech enables medical equipment from defibrillators to hospital equipment to home care devices for improved:

Equipment maintenance and reliability

IoT healthcare devices can provide an alert when their power is running low. This provides both the patient and the healthcare provider with the peace of mind they need to know that their devices won’t stop working unexpectedly.

Quality of care

The speed, efficiency and accuracy of IoT medical devices add up to an important purpose — improving health outcomes for patients. MultiTech’s IoT solutions enable healthcare professionals to monitor patient wellbeing in a way that simply was not possible in the past. Using a network of connected IoT devices, patients receive continuous care. The accuracy and speed of this technology add peace of mind to daily life for patients with a wide range of conditions.

Quality of Life

IoT solutions can provide patients with a higher quality of life on a daily basis. Improved connectivity eliminates the need for frequent doctor visits, allowing the patient to live with a higher level of independence. If the patient is using an IoT device for any type of health monitoring, they also won’t need to meticulously keep track of health changes, as this information will live in the data. IoT devices can help patients live more independently, making daily life more enjoyable without sacrificing any quality in care.

MultiTech has made our integration into the IoT community seamless.

Consumers may change their smart phone every year or two, but with solar energy systems and related communication devices, reliability and longevity are far more important—we need devices that can run for 10+ years. MultiTech’s family of rugged, industrial cellular modems and routers, combined with advanced M2M network connectivity ensures long-term stability

We need a modem that is going to be reliable 100% of the time, and so far, MultiTech hasn’t let us down.

We recommend the Multi-Tech modem because of its reliability and the quality of Multi-Tech’s support
