Remote IV Pump Monitoring

…A Feature of Dalcon Alert

Because caregivers cannot be everywhere at once, the continual beep of an IV Pump alarm is one of the top complaints of hospital patients nationwide.  However, Dalcon Alert has an integrated solution that vastly increases staff productivity and patient satisfaction, Remote IV Pump Monitoring.

How It Works

  1. The IV pump is connected directly to the Remote Alert Monitor (RAM).
  2. When the IV pump generates an alarm, the RAM receives and interprets the alarm as specific to the IV pump.
  3. The RAM then wirelessly sends an alert to the Dalcon Communications Manager (DCM) server. The DCM server logs the alert into a database, and then simultaneously pushes out a notification to  Alarm Management Software and caregiver’s wireless devices.
  4. The Alarm Management Software display at the nursing station shows information about all the active notifications in the Dalcon Alert system.
  5. Caregivers receive text message notifications directly on their wireless devices displaying the notification type and location.

Dalcon Alert can be programmed to send a text message to the sole caregiver responsible for overseeing the patient, or to any number of caregivers—all those on the same floor for example—so that the nearest staff member can quickly attend to the IV Pump.
