Integra Systems Background

Was asked by the major smartphone company today...think Android; to provide a professional (Integra Systems, Inc) background regarding a planned web event in June centered around wireless in healthcare. Centered around the hot topic...BYOD (Bring your own device). This means pulling together all the pieces of the wireless IT puzzle.

Since 1997 www.integrasystems.org has provided wireless design expertise for companies on a global basis to medical device companies, startups, as well as technical and strategic advice to the venture capital and the private equity community in the wireless and medical device connectivity space. We have developed products and applications that are impacting the M2M space. Integra Systems with partners have filed several patents of which are provisional and now of which one is patented in the converged medical, RFID, and wireless device space. These patents and pending cover the POC (point of care) space and enterprise M to M broadband and cloud based automation. Our expertise and experience is driving the change in the wireless space on a lot of levels both in healthcare; but also the mobile enterprise. Mr. Hoglund’s experience includes but is not limited to technology solution design, consulting, and technical marketing in the verticals of (healthcare, and DOD) which has included of all areas of wireless modalities, RFID/RFLS, WAN/PAN/WLAN, and expert knowledge of the wireless domain space; specific to medical devices (testing and design).This includes the implantable and to WLAN/embedded medical devices. Prior experience consisted of a variety of corporate/military roles (officer in the United States Air Force), (medical device) experience Siemens Medical Systems, the Department of Defense, Hewlett Packard, General Electric, Motorola, Draeger Medical, and also conducted M&A for technology ventures with Johnson Controls as well as defined agreements with Commscope. He also has managed complex projects, provided work flow modeling, and launched major medical and wireless product releases on a domestic and international basis.

WebCast: Medical Device Connectivity - Requirements for Design, Testing, and Implementation

Integra Systems, Inc., conducted a webcast on Thursday October 13, 2011 was sponsored by www.gersonlehrmangroup.com.

Over 70 attendees were on-line which consisted of a variety of medical device companies..many interesting questions came up. The abstract for this webcast was as follows: "The world of medical device connectivity through wireless and enterprise networking is nothing new today; but it simply has become the accepted requirement in 2011 and beyond. In light of this acceptance, the wireless and networking technology change process is driving forward in rapid stance. This almost daily technology "sea change" places demands on the medical device company to incorporate the right connectivity technology in their device, but also how to deploy those networked devices in the enterprise. This is important to not only ensure security and quality of service requirements, but also to be accepted as enterprise grade. The web based event that follows will focus on three main areas of knowledge transfer."

a. What are the available wireless connectivity solutions in the marketplace available to the medical device company and the value add /non value add of each?

b. In terms of regulatory, both for an IDE and FDA 510k submission, how should the medical device company structure their testing for submission requirements?

c. In light of IEC 80001, how should the medical device company, (that now has the approved wireless device), go forward with the best of practice deployment guidelines in the hospital?

Wireless Web Based Event November - A Healthcare CIO Strategic View and Plan

It has all come together with the hard work of a lot of entities.  I am excited yet humbled to participate in this as it is truly an opportunity to understand the vision and execution of a forward looking healthcare IT executive in this space. Early on he stepped out on pilot wireless projects; but also executed on a wireless healthcare strategy that drove a major league value proposition across the enterprise.  His business and technical acumen not only helped to improve clinical outcomes, but saved major financial costs; all the while reducing risk. It is in these types of environments where this thought process can change healthcare.
