Understanding a patient's condition requires comprehensive data from various vital signs. Health systems often depend on multiple monitors to achieve this, each offering different clinical measurement technologies favored by their clinicians. Unfortunately, this often leads to fragmented approaches due to differing capabilities across vendors. Philips, in partnership with leading technology providers, has integrated advanced clinical measurement technologies directly into our patient monitors, addressing inefficiencies and enhancing care delivery.
Philips has longstanding technology partnerships with partners such as Masimo and Medtronic that reduce the complexity of hospital environments and streamline workflows. By ensuring that our technologies work together, we aim to provide health systems with comprehensive monitoring solutions that work harmoniously with their existing technology, regardless of the manufacturer.
Philips has established collaborations with partners such as Masimo and Medtronic to simplify healthcare environments and enhance clinical workflows. By ensuring compatibility across technologies, we aim to deliver integrated monitoring solutions that coexist with existing systems, regardless of the manufacturer.
The Philips-Masimo partnership brings Masimo’s advanced measurement technologies into Philips IntelliVue patient monitors. This integration empowers clinicians with the freedom to utilize their preferred technologies in a unified system, reducing the need for multiple devices. Advanced options like Masimo rainbow SET® SpO₂, O3® Regional Oximetry, SedLine® Brain Function Monitoring, and accurate CO₂ measurements are available.
Similarly, the integration of Medtronic technologies offers clinicians choices such as Medtronic Nellcor™ pulse oximetry, Microstream™ capnography for precise CO₂ measurement, and BIS™ brain monitoring technology. This ensures that vital signs are accessible from a single interface, enhancing workflow efficiency and patient quality care.
Clinicians gain value from access to integrated insights. By embedding partner technologies into our patient monitors, clinicians can view a patient’s condition from a single device at the point of care, reducing reliance on multiple systems and minimizing clutter in the care environment.
From an operational and technical standpoint, these integrations support future compatibility and scalability, protecting long-term investments for health systems that standardize on Philips patient monitoring solutions. With fewer devices to manage, IT teams can consolidate tools, streamline support services and gain greater flexibility when upgrading technologies.
