Electronic health records have been in use to some limited degree since the early 1960s. Today, the industry is gaining widespread interest from local and national governments worldwide. While government programs are aimed at driving EHR implementations across the globe, these efforts are also motivating advancements in related areas such as medical device connectivity. Indeed, recent focus on meaningful EHR adoption across hospitals and a parallel growth with respect to mobile technologies have resulted in the evolution of the wireless EHR market.

Wireless EHR-compatible devices not only streamline data and data storage options but also provide critical analytical data inside and outside the traditional hospital setting.
