Following is a list of ConnexALLŽ features that can be implemented within a healthcare facility.

This list is not exhaustive. GlobeStar Systems keeps updating the list when new integrations are successfully completed. For more information, please contact info@globestarsystems.com.

 

Access Control Capability to monitor all accesses (doors, windows, etc.) to a facility notifying any violation in access codes, access information or identification system such as biometric identification, retinal scan, data scan, DNA etc.
Action Control ConnexALLŽ provides the capability to control any device or system anywhere in the globe through a two-way device. For e.g. you can control the CCTV, HVAC and machinery from any other city.
ADT Manager Capability to send real time patient information to the hospital staff along with any other alarm notification regarding patients.
Auto Page Capability to automatically send a predefined message at a predefined time either once or periodically. The hospital staff automates this process and messages can be changed as and when required.
Bed Gridlock Capability to send real time notification on bed availability status to emergency sites / vehicles (equipped with wireless devices). ConnexALLŽ sends this event notification in real time so that in case a particular hospital has no vacancies, the patient can be taken to an alternate hospital.

Blood Bank Capability to send real time blood requests to porters or to blood banks in a region, city or a network of blood banks.
Centralized Switchboard Capability to monitor alarm panels of one, two or more facilities from one location and instantly notifying appropriate staff when an alarm goes off. The alarms of any facility, even if located in a different area, can be viewed from one location. For e.g. if a hospital has two buildings and just one night staff, it can use ConnexALLŽ to monitor alarms of both building from one location of choice.
CLC Capability to use the command line prompts to either activate or cancel any alarm or perform any action possible from the command line.
Code Black Capability to notify patients, hospital and security staff of a code Black situation
Code Blue Capability to provide real time notification to doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff of a cardiac arrest case, along with the patient location.
Centralized Code Blue Capability to monitor all code blue alarms in a hospital from a centralized location.
Code Brown Capability to send real time notification to the disaster management teams about hazardous material spill such as chemical spills in hospitals.
Code Green Capability to notify special team of staff to evacuate the building along with other staff and patients in cases of emergency.
Code Grey Capability to notify the security and special response teams for disaster management. ConnexALLŽ sends real time notification anywhere on any device.
Code Orange Capability of notifying the security and special response teams for disaster management. ConnexALLŽ sends real time notifications to any device, anywhere.
Code White Capability to notify the healthcare staff and/or security about a violent patient, together with their location.
Code Yellow Capability to notify the front desk, security staff and other hospital staff of a missing patient. This real time notification capability allows the code yellow process to start immediately and patient tracking chances increase.
Code Pink Capability to notify real-time all security staff, front desk and other hospital staff of infant abduction attempt.
CPD Notifications Capability to notify the support services in real time as and when any assistance is required in the OR. For e.g. circulating nurses can notify lab staff, porters, nurses, doctors, blood banks or any department in the hospital about any requirement in OR.
Dry Contact Capability to switch between modes. For e.g. to switch on/ off the light, open/shut doors or windows, regulate HVAC etc.
Duress Alarm Capability to immediately notify the security staff when the duress alarm is triggered.
Elevator at your service Capability to control the elevator (call or hold it) from a wireless phone. The elevator can be called from a wireless phone using ConnexALLŽ technology before the staff actually reaches it, saving precious time.
Environmental Services Capability to notify cleaning staff to prepare rooms, beds, OR’s, etc. before a patient arrives.
Fire Alert Capability to alert patients, hospital and security staff when fire alarm(s) goes off.
Freezer Alert Capability to alert the staff if there is temperature fluctuation or changes from the normal values.
Asset Management Capability to locate asset / equipment on a facility map with the help of RFID* tags and notifying the appropriate staff. It’s useful in saving costs of lost equipments in a hospital.
Fan-Out Capability to provide real-time notifications to any device of an emergency situation to everyone who needs to know, anywhere in the world. Instead of having someone calling everybody at a time, ConnexALL can establish several calls at the same time, saving precious time.
Building Automation System (BAS) Capability to automatically control every system within a building, for e.g. Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning.
Incubator Guard/ Temperature Monitor Capability to alert medical staff if temperature levels in the incubators change from the normal settings.
Lab Assistant Capability to instantaneously retrieve abnormal lab results of a patient from a database. This feature is widely used in Operating Rooms in hospitals.
Manual Paging Capability to manually and instantly send messages to any device.
Mapping Trigger Capability to monitor the location of all alarms on a facility map from ConnexALLŽ GUI. In case an alarm goes off, an icon will start blinking on the map and the administrator will know the exact location of that alarm, facilitating immediate action.
Med Gas Capability to alert the staff if medical gas pressure is out of normal range and in overflow cases.
Network Monitoring ConnexALLŽ is capable of monitoring all network servers and/or devices where critical applications/operations are running. It notifies the network administrator in real time when a server or device goes down.
Nurse Call/ Call Bell System Capability to monitor all patient alarms and notify nurse(s) as soon as a patient presses the nurse call button or pulls the cord. ConnexALLŽ is capable of establishing a two-way communication between patient and nurse, if the device supports it. ConnexALLŽ can also escalate the notification if the primary contact is unavailable.
OR Status Management Capability to view/change the current Operating Room status. It saves time and improves workflow of PACU/ POCU staff, porters, and in-patient unit nurses. OR idle time is significantly reduced.
PACUa Capability to report the current Operating Room status. In an OR, idle time is cost critical. Real time and accurate communication between PACU, OR and POCU ensures smooth workflow.
Paging Alert Capability to automatically perform overhead paging when an emergency alarm goes off. For e.g. in case of fire alarm, ConnexALL can automatically trigger an overhead paging message inside the building, requesting all residents to evacuate the building.
Patient Records ConnexALLŽ integrates to Patient information databases and allows patient information to be seen in a device, from anywhere in the hospital.
Patient Reminder Capability to automatically send periodic follow-up calls/ messages to the patients after they are discharged from the hospital.
Patient Wandering Capability to notify nurses and security staff when a patient wanders in a restricted area. With the advancement of patient tracking technology using RFID tags, it is now possible to view the exact location of patient on a facility map. ConnexALLŽ can send this information on any device instantaneously.
POCUb Capability to notify 'OR closing' status to POCU nurses, environmental service staff and porters all at once to save time in preparing POCU.
Porter Connect Capability to notify porters of a service request anywhere in the hospital. Porters can be tracked with the help of location services. Operating Rooms can notify the nearest porter to save time and increase efficiency.
