Development of an Integrated Medical Device Data Management and Monitoring System

The client faces difficulties in integrating data from numerous standalone medical devices across its facilities, leading to manual data entry errors, limited real-time monitoring, and complexities in ensuring compliance with international safety and data security standards. Large-scale device deployment results in performance bottlenecks and inefficient procedural workflows.

A global healthcare organization operating multiple blood centers and laboratories that require real-time device data integration, management, and compliance with international standards.

• Develop a scalable platform capable of connecting and managing hundreds of diverse medical devices simultaneously.
• Enable real-time data collection, integration, and bidirectional communication with multiple device types and external information management systems.
• Automate data verification, process control, and electronic recordkeeping to improve accuracy, compliance, and operational efficiency.
• Design an interface for centralized device configuration, session monitoring, and operator management.
• Ensure the solution is compliant with relevant medical device software standards (e.g., IEC 62304), data protection requirements (e.g., HIPAA, GDPR), and international certifications (CE, FDA).
• Optimize system performance to support multi-language environments and facilitate seamless integration into the existing supply chain infrastructure.

• Bidirectional communication interface with external information management systems
• Support for connecting and managing multiple device types and manufacturers within modules/stations
• Real-time monitoring of device and process status with alerting and notifications
• Electronic data capture for session and process data with secure, compliant recordkeeping
• Automated data verification and validation against external databases
• Intelligent barcode configuration for tracking supplies, samples, incidents, and operator IDs
