Capsule has led the world of device connectivity for over 12 years with proven connectivity now installed at over 500 hospitals. Its list of devices, now exceeding over 450, allows hospitals to connect virtually any medical device to any information system. Capsule's growing list of available devices includes those from leading manufacturers such as Philips Healthcare, CareFusion, GE Medical, Spacelabs Healthcare, Dräger Medical, Hospira, Nihon-Kohden, and over 30 others. In the last 6 months alone, Capsule added another 79 devices to its list including Stryker's InTouch Bed and Somanetics INVOS Cerebral monitor. These recent additions only further Capsule's position in the market and now mean that Capsule can connect to over 97% of the patient monitors on the market, over 98% of all ventilators and IV pumps, and over 94% of all pulse oximeters, as well as an impressive list of other devices such as spot check monitors, anesthesia machines, IABPs, perfusion systems and more.
These devices continue to feature Capsule's FDA-cleared plug and play connectivity solution, originally introduced in 2003. Capsule's plug and play solution features their DataCaptor™ Device ID Module (DIM) which enables auto-detection and configuration of the device so that data can automatically be transmitted to the server for translation, filtering and management. The Device ID Module frees hospital staff from the tedious task of configuring devices and interfaces and allows clinicians to focus on the care of their patients. Capsule has installed over 13,000 DIM's since 2003, demonstrating that its plug and play connectivity solution meets the needs of busy clinicians, biomed, and IT staff.
These statistics prove that with Capsule as their provider, hospitals can focus on their clinical and business goals without having to worry about the multi-layered complexity of biomedical device integration and further reinforce Capsule's commitment to hospitals to ensure connectivity of virtually any medical device to any information system. Mark Morwood, Vice President of Product Management at Capsule, emphasizes the importance of having solutions for virtually any device, "Capsule continues to partner with the leading device manufacturers to ensure that our list includes all the devices a hospital needs. We're always seeking to include the latest products available across the enterprise such as the new InTouch Bed from Stryker. By adding the most cutting edge devices to our solution, we can ensure that we are ahead of the curve and are ready and able to provide connectivity right away for any device a hospital may purchase. It's all about the hospital -- about making sure they can connect whatever they need to right away."
