RPM® – Remote Physiology Monitoring System

The BRYTECH RPM® is a wireless patient monitoring system for ambulatory patients. A compact, robust unit is worn by the patient and transmits vital sign data across a secure network for realtime display, alarm generation and archiving. Wearable Unit
  • A small, wireless vital-sign monitor
  • Networked to display patient status on a number of terminals
  • A complete suite of vital-sign data from a single device
  • Data and trends are available in realtime or as historic review

Reduces Nursing Workload

Since the monitor is wearable, it can remain with the patient as they are transferred from triage or post-op, through step down to a ward or even home. This saves nurse time in detaching and reattaching sensors for each move, or even a trip to radiology. The RPM patient monitoring unit can remain with the patient for the entire hospital stay.

Enhances patient care

Continual monitoring has the benefit of earlier diagnosis and faster response to adverse events. Unlike traditional methods, the monitor remains with the patient, reducing the spread of infection.

Vital-Signs

  • ECG
  • oxygen saturation
  • respiration rate
  • blood pressure
  • temperature

Other Recorded Data

  • Patient data
  • Admitted date
  • Diagnosis
  • History
  • Treatment notes
  • Alarm record



Uses existing IT infrastructure

The RPM System is based around an existing wireless network, either low-power Wi-Fi while in a hospital or managed care facility or via cell phone technology for home and roaming applications. Patient information is available from any authorized computer on the network. ECG strips and corresponding vital-sign data can be printed using existing equipment or exported to other systems.

Protected wireless access

Secure Wi-Fi is used within health facilities to control devices, prevent unauthorized access and increasing network reliability.

Sophisticated patient alarms

Continual monitoring of single or multiple vital-sign parameters - threshold and frequency triggered. Alarms are raised at all monitoring stations, including central station, bedside display, remote station or mobile PDA, as required.

Data security

The encrypted data is stored on dual-redundant file servers further protecting the data from loss or realtime outage due to hardware failure.

Flexible architecture

The centralized data architecture allows for any number of realtime displays showing single patient status or multiple patients, on PCs or PDAs. Realtime Bedside Display Mobile Nurse Unit
