We are in an era where almost all areas of life have been digitized, such as in the medical field. In the previous article, we have also explained network monitoring in the world of health. Still on the same topic, we will explain monitoring in the health system or medical devices using network monitoring applications or tools, especially NetMonk.
We all agree that the health system uses sophisticated technology. A small example is collecting patient data on a computer that uses a server or network system, and another example is the use of medical devices for other important purposes.
Why is network monitoring or network monitoring important in the health system or in monitoring medical devices? Network monitoring helps hospitals, especially in monitoring the condition of the health system so that it continues to run well so that it can continue to support the operation of medical devices properly. Especially in difficult times like now where the Covid-19 pandemic has caused activities in hospitals to become busier. It feels like using a network monitoring tool is much more practical. How come? We will explain more clearly below.
The general features that are usually found in network monitoring applications are alerts or notifications regarding detected problems so that you can find out what problems are happening. For example, such as X-ray medical devices and one of the cases mentioned by Hayhurst in his article is “network monitoring tools helped Foss and his team discover that X-ray machines on the network were running outdated and potentially vulnerable operating systems.”
Not only that, Hayhurst mentioned in his article that in an administrative context, network monitoring tools can track device usage patterns that inform financial and operational efficiency. This is because you don’t need to do manual or traditional monitoring which of course results in inefficiencies.
NetMonk itself is a network monitoring application provider that is experienced in providing server monitoring solutions at one of the state hospitals in Indonesia. NetMonk has superior features such as predictive analytics, real-time notifications, and so on that can be used to monitor health systems and medical devices in hospitals.
