Abstract

Medical Devices Integration (MDI) helps healthcare organizations manage data more effectively and streamlines both clinical and administrative activities. When doctors have real-time access to the latest patient data, they can make more informed decisions regarding diagnosis and treatment. MDI can be achieved through software-based healthcare applications or direct integration of two or more medical devices. It plays a vital role in enhancing patient care by enabling seamless data exchange between medical devices and Electronic Health Records (EHR). Leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT), MDI offers several benefits, including improved data accuracy, streamlined workflows, enhanced communication among healthcare professionals, timely alerts for critical conditions, and ultimately, better patient outcomes through comprehensive real-time information access.

Keywords

EHR Integration, Wearable Devices, Smart Healthcare, Telemedicine IoT, Healthcare Automation.
