12-Inch Bedside Monitor Enables Centralized Surveillance in Hong Kong Hospital

Setting
A major hospital in Hong Kong with high demands for patient safety and clinical efficiency.

Challenge
Healthcare staff were overwhelmed by fragmented bedside data and scattered alarms across different wards, making it difficult to form a comprehensive clinical picture.

Solution
The hospital deployed wired 12-inch bedside patient monitors featuring plug-in modular design, capable of monitoring ECG, NIBP, SpO₂, respiration, and temperature. These monitors were connected via wired network to a central monitoring station.

Key Features in Practice

• All-angle visual alarms: Three-level alarm lights ensure emergency signals are visible from any angle.

• Auditory feedback for BP measurement: Clear prompts in busy environments prevent confusion.

• Central station oversight: The system aggregates data from up to 64 beds, displaying real-time waveforms, parameters, and trend graphs on a single screen.

Outcome
The wired monitoring ecosystem transformed fragmented bedside data into a unified surveillance network. The system enables a shift from "passive response" to "proactive prediction" in patient care.

Clinical Value

• Wired connectivity ensures stable, uninterrupted data transmission – ideal for fixed bedside applications in patient rooms and ICUs.

• 12-inch display provides clear visualization of multiple waveforms simultaneously for rapid assessment.

• Centralized surveillance eliminates information silos and enhances team coordination.
