NEW 4 MEDICAL IT ALLIANCE UNVEILED AT ISE 2020

We are pleased to announce the official launch of the 4 Medical IT Alliance, formed to bring hospitals around the world a state-of-the-art integrated eco-system for the efficient control and operability of operating rooms and other patient care areas. 

Working with our world-leading partners NDS Surgical Imaging, ZeeVee, NETGEAR, the SDVoE Alliance and new product development designer Big Blue Solutions, 4 Medical IT has created the world’s first open standard integrated operating room based on the SDVoE’s revolutionary 4K video-over-IP technology. 

“Having created many proprietary systems in the past for my clients, it has long been a vision of mine to create an operating room video system that embraces an open-architecture that removes the lock-in to proprietary control,” says Colin Dobbyne, managing director of 4 Medical IT.  “The commitment of the 4 Medical IT Alliance members to collaborative innovation means the eco-system will expand rapidly, finally providing surgeons with the system they want – offering choice, interoperability and performance improving services such as data acquisition, AI, machine learning and real-time efficiency monitoring.”

Sharing Research and Development

The 4 Medical IT Alliance partners are committed to an open standard, and combining and sharing research and development efforts.  This will rapidly expand the eco-system with data-rich services and innovation for unparalleled performance, interoperability, affordability and proven reliability.  The 4Medical IT Alliance partners are excited to engage with leading medical OEM companies and system integrators to deliver innovative solutions to hospitals globally.

Uniting Strengths and Product Ranges

Each partner brings its own strengths and product range to the 4 Medical IT Alliance:

  • The system is constructed on a robust 10G fibre backbone using the powerful and SDVoE-preconfigured switches from NETGEAR
  • ZeeVee, having just launched version 1.2 with many unique features including live preview, has a range of fully certified (60601) codecs for use in patient care areas
  • NDS, a subsidiary of Novanta Corporation, is a leader in surgical displays for HD, 4K, 3D and wireless video displays and is developing two platforms to combine video distribution with DICOM-compliant capturing in a single box
  • Big Blue Solutions, a disruptive design consultancy for operating theatre control systems, has created the 4 Medical IT Alliance eco-system as a complete solution. Former clients include Smith and Nephew, Maquet and ConMed, and most recently Karl Storz, developing its latest OR1 platforms

 

Using open IP standards as a policy rather than proprietary systems, the 4 Medical IT Alliance system will plug and play with all endoscopes, robots and imaging devices and interoperate and exchange data with efficiency planning control, HIS/EPR/EMR and surveillance systems.
