Device Middleware

Better Care makes BC Link, a vendor-agnostic medical device interoperability platform that connects bedside devices such as multiparameter monitors, ventilators, anaesthesia workstations, and pulse oximeters, then harmonizes their data, including high-resolution waveforms, into a unified clinical database. BC Link integrates bidirectionally with hospital systems (EHR, HIS, PACS, LIS) and is certified as a Class IIb medical device in Europe. It can be deployed on-premise, cloud, or hybrid.

Medical Informatics Corp makes Sickbay, an FDA-cleared, vendor-neutral platform that collects and aggregates high-resolution physiologic waveforms and numeric data from bedside monitors, ventilators, pumps, and other ICU devices across manufacturers. It time-synchronizes and stores this data for real-time remote monitoring, virtual ICU, and downstream analytics and machine-learning applications. The platform is used as clinical data infrastructure for predictive monitoring research.

MediCollector provides software for real-time acquisition, recording, and streaming of medical device data, captured directly from bedside devices such as Philips, GE, and Dräger monitors. It captures both waveform and numeric vital-signs data and translates vendor-specific protocols into standardized HL7 messages for HIS, EMR, and integration engines. Classified as a Medical Device Data System (MDDS), it acquires and transports data without altering it. MediCollector was founded in 2017 in Boston out of the Wyss Institute at Harvard.

Vendor-neutral Medical Device Information Platform (MDIP) that connects 1,200+ device types via 250+ drivers and streams harmonized data to EHRs, alarm management, and clinical surveillance systems.
