The document discusses using intelligent data and connectivity in healthcare. It outlines several use cases for real-time data integration like clinical decision support, remote patient monitoring, and medical device interoperability. The needs of intelligent healthcare systems include reliable and secure communication between devices, location abstraction, and scalability. The RTI Connext DataBus is presented as a solution to distribute data across these complex healthcare systems in real-time. A deep dive on DocBox, a clinical decision support system, shows how it can improve patient safety by integrating data from various sources and devices like PCA pumps. The Internet of Things is transforming healthcare by enabling smart devices and analytics to share data to deliver better care.

- 4. It’s All About the Data “Health care is burdened by a system where doctors and caregivers have to go searching for vital information; it is inefficient at best and life threatening at worst. We need to make the data more intelligent and integrated, more predictive and proactive, so information finds the doctor instead of the other way around. Intelligent data flows speed up care delivery and can prevent chronic conditions by getting the treatment right the very first time. Similarly, in terms of health management costs, “intelligent” hospitals are deploying systems that behave like air traffic control for medical staff and devices, and provide a full detailed view of hospital resources. Better utilization cuts capital expenses. Better asset location leaves nurses more time to focus on patients. Better management improves patient flow, cuts operating costs, and saves hospitals millions.” - Jeff Immelt (Nov 2012) http://gigaom.com/2012/11/28/the-future-of-the-internet-is-intelligent-machines/

- 7. RTI Connext: The Software DataBus™ • Data centric – Structured, accessible data – Like a database for moving data • Independent modules – Supports SOA • Plug and play flexibility – Like a hardware bus • Peer-to-peer performance – Like streaming protocols • Standards-based interoperability – Like TCP/IP • Abstracts Location RTI Connext DataBus™ Scalable, high- performance, reliable infrastructure that eases integration
- 8. Why a DataBus Transport? • Connects quickly, easily, powerfully • Reduces risk – Proven, reusable, certified • Saves money – Decouples large problem into solvable pieces • Enables advanced capability – Reliability: redundant, 24x7 operation – Performance: microsecond latency, megabyte throughput – Integration: Any transport, OS, language RTI Connext DataBus™
- 9. RTI Connext: Building Blocks RTI DataBus Peer-to-peer: • Superior for real-time & near real- time delivery Integration Services to connect system-of- systems RTI DataBus R RTI DataBus R R R R R R R Integration Services can be composed into a hierarchical topology

- 14. Machine Command/Control • Mevion’s Proton- Beam Radiation Therapy system zaps tumors with accelerated protons • The treatment must be continuous for 30- 40 days; downtime endangers treatment success • Mevion’s PBRT delivers dependable treatment at low cost
- 15. Data Acquisition • RTI powers Varian’s NMR and MRI product lines • Any one of the sixteen MRI receivers can saturate a 1Gbit network. • RTI controls and optimizes network use to handle megabytes of load without losing data“RTI delivered great functionality at a low cost. Using RTI middleware saved us a lot of money, time, and effort compared to our previous in-house developed solution.”
- 16. Device Interoperation • The Integrated Clinical Environment (ICE) standard specifies interoperability for medical devices • All ICU & operating room devices — from blood pressure cuffs to intravenous pumps to ventilators — could be interconnected according to the ICE standard – Complete logging – Automatic error detection – Better care • The DDS standard and RTI middleware enables plug & play interoperability across manufacturers

- 18. The Problem • 25% of all hospital admissions have a medical error • 4 Jumbo Jets full of people a week die from medical errors • Leapfrog Group has stated it could cost up to $7800 per admit for medical errors in the US
- 19. Devices, processes, non-integrated system errors
- 20. Requirements from Providers • Complete and Accurate Data • Safe Systems • Secure Systems • Increased Efficiency – Clinical Workflow – Device and Systems Maintenance • Improved Quality • Flexible (Inpatient to Outpatient) • Able to deal with new and legacy equipment • Scalable • Facilitation of decision support and data visualization
- 21. “Achieving higher quality care at lower cost will require fundamental commitments to the incentives, culture, and leadership that foster continuous "learning”, as the lessons from research and each care experience are systematically captured, assessed, and translated into reliable care.” -IOM 2013
- 22. Hospitals are Distributed Systems • Medical Devices • IT Systems – EMR – Lab – Pharmacy – Radiology • Clinicians and Support Staff • Patient
- 23. Example Scenario 1: Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) • 2-3 Patients per day in the US die from opiate overdose. • Very little understanding of the cause • Patient presses button to receive intravenous pain medication • Patients can call to request more analgesia, but, cannot call for help when over-medicated. • Over-medication can cause respiratory and cardiac arrest • Comprehensive monitoring is not typically used due to high false/nuisance alarm rate • How can we improve safety of this system?
