Data and data transfer are becoming increasingly important. The customer's platform solution aims to connect laboratory devices, laboratory information systems, customer systems, and third-party solutions to enable seamless data exchange. Since cloud-based data solutions are exposed to significant cybersecurity and data privacy risks, PTA was brought in to support all development activities and implement appropriate measures.
Supplement
The risk management implemented by PTA according to ISO 14971 has been expanded beyond patient safety to address the needs of risk assessments for data privacy and cybersecurity. This is to introduce and implement optimal risk control measures. PTA coordinated the measures with internal data security and data protection departments to best meet the customer's needs.
Subject description
This solution is designed for the medical environment to connect multiple systems. It should enable the attending physician to view all relevant details of a laboratory test. One possible application is to track samples (e.g., blood samples) from collection to the laboratory to detect any temperature exceedances early. Another application example is that certain lab tests can be calculated retrospectively from the measured raw data, eliminating the need for additional sample collection. This saves costs for the customer and is more convenient for the patient.
