IoT in Healthcare Simplifies the Digital Transformation of Your Healthcare Solutions

For instance, connected monitors, test equipment and scanners located in hospitals or remote clinics can instantly send real-time data to doctors. Sensors can be used to track the location of equipment like critical care beds or oxygen pumps or ensure hygiene regimes are maintained. Remote monitoring of out-patients can reduce the length of hospital stays and prevent re-admissions. Elderly or disabled also increasingly using wearable devices to detect falls and alert caregivers.

In order to harness the data opportunity and improve outcomes for patients, those designing devices and applications for IoT in healthcare have to think very carefully about the connectivity layer.

Uses of IoT in Healthcare

Unlock the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT)

Streamline healthcare operations and drive better patient outcomes. Whether it’s remote monitoring of medical devices, access to critical patient data from temporary healthcare facilities, or remote lab testing, healthcare companies and service providers can rely on Semtech to unlock the exciting new usecases of the Internet of Medical Things.

Telemedicine sits at the nexus of medical care and connectivity. The Internet of Things creates the opportunity to streamline complex medical processes, providing accurate and timely information for practitioners and patients at the point of care.

Semtech's Cellular Connectivity Solutions for IoT in Healthcare Offer Unparalleled Benefits for Telecare Solution Providers

Data and Voice for Your Cellular Telecare Devices

Data & voice reliability is critical with any telecare solution. Our reliable connectivity enables you to provide always-on telecare services to your users. With our reliable network boasting an uptime surpassing 99.9% and incorporating multiple layers of redundancy and failover capabilities, we are dedicated to eliminating any single points of failure continuously.

Sensing for Proactive Healthcare Solutions

Semtech’s smart sensing solution offers a solution to deploy array of sensors in patient’s homes such as presence detection, leak detection, door/open close and many more. Our solution offers a turn-key solution to bring that data into the cloud enabling your platform to detect anomalies in your patient behavior proactively. Frequency and fidelity of data sent is fully configurable, allowing you to customize the solution to anticipate any potential risk/ injuries, reducing your post-incident costs.

Connect your existing medical devices and ambulatory vehicles

Medical devices are certified and designed to last for decades and are therefore very expensive to replace. Semtech’s cellular gateways and routers enable you to connect your existing equipment, no matter if they are installed in a fixed location or moving around in a vehicle. Our reliable cellular router solutions with comprehensive connectivity features help keep your life-saving devices operational and up to date no matter where they are.

Embed Connectivity into Your Telecare Device

Design your next generation telecare device with connectivity inside using one of Semtech’s cellular modules and/or LoRa chip providing out-of-the-box connectivity from your device to the cloud.
