eGateway

eGateway is a member of the Mindray monitoring product family and is the bridge between hospital information systems and Mindray monitoring system. It provides bi-directional communication, sending comprehensive data which includes vital signs, alarms, reports and full disclosure to the hospital information system. Besides, it can download patient demographics from hospital ADT Servers to Mindray monitoring system.

Extended compatibility

Compatible with Clinical Information Systems

eGateway uses the standard IHE HL7 protocol, making it easier to connect with almost all clinical information systems from current mainstream vendors. eGateway supports five transmitting methods including: unsolicited-client, unsolicited-server, solicited-server, solicited-client/server and file. This makes eGateway extremely flexible and compatible with various information systems. With the built-in HL7 edit engine, the Mindray Service Team can help you connect Mindray devices or your existing information system quickly and at a reasonable cost. The comprehensive setting of eGateway makes it customisable to satisfy all your connection requirements.

Compatible with medical devices

eGateway not only supports connection to all Mindray patient monitors, but also Mindray anaesthesia machines and ventilators through BeneLink. For other vendors' devices including infusion pumps, anaesthesia machines and ventilators, connection can be achieved to Mindray patient monitors by using BeneLink modules and their data can also be sent to eGateway via the Mindray monitoring network.

Superior reliability

Data Safety

Protecting the safety of your data has been fully considered.   eGateway can support 48 hours of data, backfilling for both medical  devices and information systems which meet the requirement,  whether it is an unpredictable network interruption or intentional  network maintenance. It also supports using another eGateway for  redundancy, avoiding lost data through a single point of failure.

Data Security

ePHI disclosure can cause serious consequences for both patients and the hospital. eGateway adopts a sophisticated encryption strategy to protect ePHI security. SSL and XXTea encryption have been used for patient monitor side communication and iPSec for information system side communication. ePHI in eGateway is also protected by windows EFS.

Meets Hospital IT strategies

To meet Hospital IT strategies, eGateway supports running under Windows General User permissions and joining the hospital domain. It also supports anti-virus programmes such as McAfee Application Control and McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.8, making it more reliable. System patch lists can be issued regularly to you by our Service Centres.

More economic

Reduce connection costs

Up to 200 medical devices can be connected to one eGateway and the data from all of these devices can be sent to the clinical information system through one interface. This not only reduces the license fee for connecting clinical information systems but also reduces your communication costs for connection because eGateway is consolidating data from multiple medical devices.

Reduce maintenance costs

eGateway can be virtualised by using the existing VMware virtual server in the hospital and supports  joining windows domains, meaning eGateway can be centrally managed. This makes the network more stable and migration more convenient, helping to reduce maintenance costs.
