Health applications
& sharing
More of us are now
downloading health
apps and willing
to share our
health data
Data access
Hospitals and doctor’s
offices now offer
patients access to
their own digital data
Medical knowledge growth
All that data has now
helped medical knowledge
double every 3.5 years (as
opposed to doubling every
50 years like it did in 1950)

Chapter #4 Network solution
30
Today’s hospital network has unique IT needs
Challenges and issues in adopting new technologies.
Privacy, access and availability of care,
are areas of major concern in adopting
new technologies
Interactions between the network’s
different departments which overlap and
can include medical equipment, clinical
data, general data, voice and audio, and
more
All of these must be tied into a single IT
infrastructure for the purposes of easier
monitoring and maintenance
Maintaining disparate networks almost
universally leads to issues with quality of
service and cost
Security levels between these networks
still needs to be maintained
This has led to the need for a converged network, through which multiple networks can be
connected but not consolidated

“The integrated network setup brings
revolutionary change to the hospital.
This includes a good information system

would be very difficult to put our
multi-dimensional dynamic medical
approach in place.”
