Gemalto has announced its Cinterion M2M technology to provide secure wireless connectivity for a next generation smart health and wellness M2M hub, which has been developed by Vignet Corp. This award-winning and cost-effective Hub consolidates information from medical sensors by leveraging a cloud-based server that transforms data into easy-to-understand insights. Gemalto’s Cinterion 3G/4G module enables the cellular transmission of data so that healthcare providers can provide remote care to patients. The end-to-end solution meets US privacy regulations like HIPAA, ensuring patient information is accessed only by authorized individuals.
"Vignet Corp and Gemalto are at the centre of the Internet of Things with innovations in remote patient monitoring that can reduce hospital re-admission, the duration of hospitalization, or the number of clinical visits for a more comfort-oriented healthcare experience," said Paul Kobos, Head of M2M, Gemalto North America.
The mHealth technology sends alarm notifications to healthcare providers when medication is missed or thresholds are met which can improve remote patient monitoring and medical response time. Integrating Gemalto’s connectivity, the Vignet Hub provides an innovative, secure, HIPAA and privacy-compliant system. The Hub controls collection, transfer, integration, and analysis of information while reporting sensor or manual-based health-related data about the patient’s well-being.
