Market Research and Market Trends of Nurse Call System Market:
- Many companies are increasing investments towards various healthcare IT systems has led to the trend of adopting advanced art communication systems in hospitals. Healthcare facilities have been increasingly focusing on building efficient communication infrastructure in order to provide enhanced clinical workflow integration to their patients. Furthermore, with the upcoming technological advancements in the IT and communication systems, the nurse call systems market is anticipated to continue witnessing strong growth in the further years.
- The Nurse Call Systems market has been witnessing a price declining trend for different communication equipment used in the overall nurse call systems thereby, resulting in a higher rate of adoption in various developing markets.
- In August 2017, Wandsworth Healthcare launched latest IP nurse call system – IPiN Evolution has moved the IP to the bed offering on again, by utilizing the latest hardware and software. Complementing this new system is the futuristic nurse call handset that has set a new standard in what Trusts and Patients should expect from their handset.
- February 7, 2017 – AMETEK, Inc. (NYSE: AME) today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Rauland-Borg Corporation, a leading global provider of mission critical communication solutions for hospitals, healthcare systems and educational facilities.
- Researchers from the department of biomedical engineering, SRM University, India have developed a new low cost automated nurse call system for improving patient care using Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench (LabVIEW) and National Instruments MyRIO. It could help in improving patient care at hospitals where centralized monitoring system is absent. This cost of implementing this system is the major advantage as this system can monitor up to 10 beds at a time. Since this system uses NI LabVIEW, the user interface is very friendly which is also customizable based on patients’ medical history. In future, a messaging system can also be incorporated wherein an alert message is sent directly to the mobile phone of the consulting physician along with the type of arrhythmia condition. The proposed system can also be used for monitoring of epileptic patients using the EEG signal, thereby ensuring continuous monitoring of both heart disease and epileptic patients.
