Silent medical alarms

Silent medical alarms

After significantly reducing the number of unwanted alarms and with that the alarm fatigue, hospitals can also realise the next step: quieter or completely silent alarms.

Silent alarm means that the acoustic signal of the source device (usually a medical device such as a monitor, infusion pump or ventilator) is switched off. The alarms are still visible on the source device and are dispatched through a monitored link to IQ Messenger Medical, which in turn forwards them to a device or smartphone of your choice.

As with the reduction of alarm fatigue, applying silent alarms carry huge gains for patients and healthcare professionals. The desire for silent alarms is therefore supported by many hospitals. IQ Messenger Medical actively helps hospitals to achieve this goal.
