Sierra Nevada Corp. (SNC, Booth 7550) is demonstrating its eHealth &amp; Remote Monitoring solutions for the EMS industry on Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. at Heli-Expo 2020. The solutions capture, store, and forward pre-hospital patient data wirelessly in real-time from medical devices in the helicopter or another medical transport vehicle to provide improved medical situation awareness, remote expert decision assistance, and even telementoring of EMS personnel.

 


According to SNC, its eMonitoring has “revolutionized military aeromedical treatment,” helping medical professionals manage multiple trauma care patients in flight. The demonstration at SNC’s booth showcases the solution’s integration, modification, and lifesaving technologies and capabilities.

 


Transport Telemedicine System (TTS) services commence at the point of injury and continue until the patient is transferred to a definitive medical care facility. The solution incorporates a variety of user devices for data entry (based on transport environment) including an intelligent access point,&nbsp;radio and network interfaces,&nbsp;patient-connected medical device interfaces,&nbsp;user-entry applications,&nbsp;smart-medicine algorithms,&nbsp;and a web-based patient-status portal. It is secure, enables HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing and data share suites, but can be driven over an open network.&nbsp;

 


Patient information files are stored in the cloud and viewed via a browser, with no need for downloading or local storage. This makes the system compatible with virtually any computer or mobile device, the Nevada-based company said. SNC added that because the company recognizes not all health care facilities have modern technology, the system can support telemedicine consults on as little as a 3G cellphone connection while still providing full functionality.

New developments and products in avionics, specifically about aircraft electronics in the cockpit.
