SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Medical device networks are larger, more complicated and more mission-critical today than they have ever been. Hospitals in Canada are supporting these networks with ongoing interdepartmental communication, clear departmental responsibilities, and a regular preventive maintenance schedule. In addition, more hospitals are layering digital monitoring solutions on top of their overall network maintenance strategy.
Frost & Sullivan’s virtual think tank, Best Practices for Managing Patient Monitoring Networks Across the IT and Biomedical Departments, aims to understand what best practices successful hospitals were following to keep these critical pieces of infrastructure functional and focused on supporting patient care.
