Cloud IoT technologies enable remote management and monitoring of medical devices and advanced data analysis – both in the cloud and at the edge.
Fremont, CA: The medical and healthcare systems worldwide are being transformed by digitalization, with IoT technologies playing an increasingly important role, particularly in the remote and predictive maintenance of medical equipment.
Cloud IoT enables predictive and remote maintenance to assist healthcare organizations in real-time monitoring, maintenance, and optimizing their equipment. Here's everything you need to know about what it can do, the obstacles to IoT integration, and what to expect in the future.
Medical Equipment Predictive Maintenance
Healthcare professionals and equipment manufacturers can remotely collect and analyze performance data from a medical device to predict malfunctions before they occur. Like any other machine, pumps, filters, and parts in medical devices have a life cycle and must be replaced at regular intervals. Typically, hospital staff has technicians on-site to check these machines and their components to ensure they're in good working order. Still, if an issue is overlooked and the machine breaks, it can cause downtime and disruption to patient treatments.
