the third party has full responsibility for the function and the risk of their
network.
The GE HL7 interface uses TCP/IP sockets for all outbound messages and
conforms to the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard. The HL7 interface assumes that
the low level communication protocol ensures that the data arrives error free. As
a result, no data integrity checking is done at the application level.
The monitor transfers trended patient vital signs data to the hospital's
information system(s). Proper transfer of this data from the monitor to the HIS
systems is dependent on a custom configuration of the interface between the
monitor and the hospital's information system.
The monitor will send data at the configured time intervals of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15,
30, 45, and 60 minutes.
