How Medical IoT Devices Make Connected Healthcare Healthy
Infographics
IS YOUR CONNECTED HEALTHCARE PRODUCT HEALTHY?
15 Connected devices per hospital bed x 5,000 Beds in a large hospital = 75,000 Number of connected devices in a hospital
IoT devices in healthcare facilities are on the rise
Lots of medical devices compete with noise generators in the 2.4 GHz band
Devices causing noise at 2.4 GHz
Microwave ovens
Wireless surveillance cameras
Bluetooth Devices
Nurse Call Systems
Dense WiFi access points
-80dBm
RF power levels above -80 dBm cause interference to WiFi networks.
30M
Significant negative impact can occur from as far away as 30 m.
50%
WiFi network performance can be degraded by 50%
Unreliable wireless devices impact care
False alarms
Mode changes
Malfunctions
