The device landscape in the healthcare sector is growing exponentially, adding to the complexity of the network, and making it challenging for IT and security personnel to remain compliant and enforce patient safety and privacy. To better understand the complexity of healthcare networks and potential vulnerabilities, Forescout research...
Lithium-ion battery prices have decreased over the years and are now becoming a viable option for Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) applications. This paper provides a brief overview of li-ion batteries in comparison to Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries for singlephase UPS applications.
This interactive tool allows users to adjust several factors--including the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) capacity and service life; back-up time and replacement period; and cost of capital and monthly building lease--in comparing traditional Li-Ion technology against Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA).
A resting ECG is a common test in physician offices today. And as the standard of care for initial assessment of many heart conditions, it's key to ensure everyone involved remembers some key fundamentals. The question is: how confident are you that everyone involved in your ECG workflow is aware of and compliant with the important steps that...
Standardizing technologies and processes can go a long way toward providing the best, most efficient patient care. But when it comes to clinically driven decisions such as which ECG devices to support across your care settings, standardization may not always be the answer. In this paper, a vital signs and cardiology solutions expert shares several...
From watches tracking steps to phones recording health data, wearable technology is now a part of our everyday lives. The rising popularity of wearable devices can even be seen in the physician's office as clinicians begin to leverage wearable technology trends to benefit their patients and their practices.

With the proliferation of medical devices within and outside of the four walls of the healthcare provider's facility, providers must ensure that these devices remain connected, available and secure when a new EMR is implemented. This executive summary will highlight steps to take when developing a strategy to deploy a new EMR.
Countless studies and articles have confirmed that connected medical devices — from implantable products like pacemakers to diagnostic devices such as CT scanners and more — are indeed vulnerable to malicious exploitation. This paper offers both technical and non-technical solutions to help prevent and mitigate future device-related...
Given that health organizations want technology to meet patients where they are, digital signage provides a particularly poignant solution to address patient engagement because of its unique opportunity to enter any space in the healthcare landscape.
