Introduction

Applicable Version

1.4

This manual applies to installing version 2.7 of the Vital Sync™ virtual patient monitoring platform and informatics manager. Version information for supporting software is indicated in other sections of this manual.

1.5 Safety Information

This section contains generally applicable safety information for this product.

1.5.1 Safety Symbols

Symbol Definition

Table1-2.Safety Symbol Definitions

WARNING

Warnings alert users to potential serious outcomes (death, injury, or adverse events) to the patient, user, or environment.

1.5.2 Warnings

 WARNING:

The Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager is intended to supplement and not to replace any part of the facility’s monitoring. Do not rely on the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager as the sole source of alarms.

In order to assure a timely response to device alarms, a clinician (not necessarily the clinician viewing data in the platform) must be within visual and/or audible range of the alarming device. In order to provide medical intervention, a clinician must interact with the device at the bedside.

 WARNING:

The platform is intended only as an adjunct in patient assessment. It must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms and periodic patient observations.

Caution

Cautions alert users to exercise appropriate care for safe and effective use of the product.

Note

Notes provide additional guidelines or information.

1-2 Installation Manual

 WARNING:

The dedicated bedside display unit is designed for use in conjunction with the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager. Do not rely on the dedicated bedside display unit as a primary source of alarms.

 WARNING:

Always follow the facility’s established patient safety protocols when using the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager.

 WARNING:

The alarm rule functionality within the software is intended to supplement and not replace any part of the facility’s monitoring. Do not rely on the platform as the sole source of alarms.

 WARNING:

Alarm rules should adhere to facility policy, procedures, and alarm management protocols. This alarm management protocol should address alarm safety and the potential impact of alarm fatigue in all patient care areas within the facility.

Safety Information

 WARNING:

Alarm priority normalization and ranking functionality within the software is intended to supplement and not replace any part of the facility’s monitoring. Do not rely on the platform as the sole source of alarms.

 WARNING:

The default alarm priority is determined by the connected device, and cannot be changed on the device. The same alarm condition may be reported with a different priority on different device models. Carefully review the Alarm Normalization Report for default alarm priorities for each connected device model.

 WARNING:

Alarm priorities in the software should not be set to be lower than those on the actual device. Use caution if changing the priority of a device alarm in the software to a different level than is indicated on the actual device, especially for devices that are life-sustaining.

 WARNING:

Alarms from connected devices should not be set as notifications in the platform, especially for devices that are life-sustaining. Because notifications do not audibly annunciate, setting an alarm as a notification may cause users to not respond or delay in responding to a clinically significant event.

 WARNING:

Notifications from connected devices should not be set as alarms in the platform, especially for events not requiring clinical intervention. Setting a notification as an alarm may create nuisance audible alerts that are not clinically significant.

Installation Manual 1-3

Introduction

 WARNING:

If using audible alerts, ensure the sound volume of the PC or mobile device on which the software is used is sufficient for alerts to be heard and recognized.

 WARNING:

It is possible for the platform’s audible alert tone to be confused with audible alarm tones from connected devices when in close physical proximity. Users should carefully attend to all audible indicators when within audible range of connected devices.

 WARNING:

When setting alarm rules and priorities in the software for any device, consult the operator’s manual for the device in question for default priority levels of device alarms, and for a description of each device alarm. Obtain a detailed understanding of the patient or device conditions that trigger any alarm before creating an alarm rule or adjusting the alarm’s priority in the software.

 WARNING:

Medtronic does not assume any responsibility for accuracy, reliability, or clinical relevance of userdesigned derived parameter algorithms.

1.5.3 Cautions

 Caution:

Do not set alarm limits to extreme values that render the monitoring system useless. Ensure alarm limits are appropriate for each patient.

 Caution:

Connected devices report data to the platform periodically, not continuously. Because of this, as well as delays caused by network bandwidth or hardware limitations or network loading, the true duration of any device alarm will be longer than the delay set in this screen for that alarm.

Carefully consider these factors when choosing delay settings, and use the shortest delay settings that are practical to reduce nuisance alarms, to avoid undue delay in response to events actually requiring direct clinical intervention.

 Caution:

Loss of patient privacy may occur if using the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager on unsecured or unencrypted networks. Always adhere to facility patient privacy practices and procedures to ensure security of patient data on the facility’s network.

1-4 Installation Manual

1.5.4 Notes

 Note:

Some mobile devices do not support the sounding of audible alerts from the platform due to device limitations. Make sure to test audible alert capability on any mobile device to be used.

 Note:

Audible alerts only sound to indicate alarms on devices linked to patients. Audible alerts do not sound for notifications.

 Note:

The platform has been verified on systems using Microsoft™* Windows™* and Windows™*-based software. User experience may vary with other operating systems and hardware and software configurations.

2-4 Installation Manual

2.3.2 Upgrade Installation

To upgrade from a previous version of the software, the process includes the following steps:

• Before installing any software, make backups of all application database files created with the previous

installation of the software, and save the backups in a safe location. The backup process prevents data loss in the event that problems occur during installation of the current version of the software.

• Ensure supporting software is already installed on all systems to be used with the upgraded version, as

described in Chapter 3. Additional installation of supporting software should not be necessary unless the deployment configuration has changed from that used for the previous version of the software.

• Install Vital Sync™ software components. Refer to Installing Software Components (Chapter 4).

• If needed, perform additional configuration procedures as described in Chapter 5 and Chapter 6. Addi-

tional steps necessary will vary depending on deployment.

 Note:

If upgrading from a version of the software previous to v2.5.x, uninstall the older version before installing the current version.

Installation Process

if upgrading from version 2.5.x of the software, to avoid potential problems with database functions, first upgrade to version 2.6.x, then upgrade to version 2.7.0.

5.4 Time Synchronization

If components are installed on multiple systems, ensure dates and times on all systems are synchronized, either via the network or by using a time server.

5.5 Distributed Deployment

For environments where there will be many users, monitored patients and/or monitored devices, a distributed deployment of Vital Sync™ software components and supporting software can be performed to improve efficiency and performance. One such deployment configuration is detailed in this section.

5.5.1 System Configuration

The distributed deployment described here uses four systems:

• The Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) system, also referred to as the OLTP database server, hosts the

application database and the Database component.

• The Data Warehouse system, also referred to as the Data Warehouse database server, hosts the Data

Warehouse database.

• The application system hosts the Data Collection Service, Reports, and Informatics Web components.

• The services system hosts the IPI Web Services connector component.

The OLTP database server supports primary clinician and supervisor platform functions, including patient/device summary and detail displays, device/patient associations, and patient and area assignment.

The Data Warehouse database server, meanwhile, supports the software’s reporting functions, and also serves as a backup to the OLTP database server.

Reporting functions can be resource-intensive, particularly when a very large data set needs to be generated for a particular report. Distributed deployment allows simultaneous reporting tasks and clinical and supervisory tasks without an adverse effect on performance, as the different tasks will not directly compete for resources on the same system.

5-8 Installation Manual

Distributed Deployment

5.5.2 Setup Process

Once components are installed on the appropriate servers as described in Chapter 4, perform subsequent distributed development setup as follows:

• Ensure that services installed on the services system are pointed to the application database on the OLTP

server. Refer to Enable Remote Connection, page 3-30.

• Ensure that replication is configured to point to the Data Warehouse server database from the OLTP

server database. Refer to Enable Remote Connection, page 3-30.

• To enable reporting functionality for multi-server installations that use a Data Warehouse server, config-

ure the Worldwide Web Publishing Service to point to the Data Warehouse server database.

• If interfacing with an external system using HL7 messages, configure the IPI HL7 Adapter to point to the

correct system.

5.5.3 Reporting Configuration

Certain multi-server installations of the Vital Sync™ software will require changes to the Worldwide Web Publishing Service configuration to support reporting functionality.

Installation

The Worldwide Web Publishing Service is installed with Microsoft™* Windows™* Internet Information Services (IIS).

Configuration

The Vital Sync™ software installer automatically configures the connection string for the Worldwide Web Publishing Service during installation. This string denotes the database to which the service should initially connect to correctly enable reporting functionality.

If installing the Vital Sync™ remote monitoring system software, no further configuration is necessary.

If installing the Vital Sync™ virtual patient monitoring platform and informatics manager software on multiple servers including a Data Warehouse system, follow the procedure in this section.

 Note:

Making changes to configuration files may adversely affect service or adapter performance. Do not make changes other than those described in this section. Always use caution when changing configuration files.

 Note:

Always make a backup copy of the configuration file before making any changes to the file.

Installation Manual 5-9

Additional Configuration

To change the connection string parameter setting:

Navigate to the directory with the configuration file (typically, C:\inetpub\wwwroot\VitalSyncReportServer\Config).

On the connectionString line, change the Initial Catalog setting to InformaticsDataWarehouse.

Save and close the configuration file.

Stop the Worldwide Web Publishing Service.

Restart the service to implement the new setting.

5.5.4 Subscription Configuration

After configuring report services to point to the Data Warehouse report server, set up a subscription to replace the local subscription, so that replication will also point to the Data Warehouse server.

The wizard accessed during the subscription setup process shows a series of screens for selection of options. If needing to change a selection already made, click Back to go back to the previous screen and make the change.

In any screen, if needed, click Cancel to stop configuration and exit the wizard.

To configure replication to point to the Data Warehouse report server:

In the Microsoft™* SQL Server™* Management Studio Object Explorer on the application system, find the SQL database server instance installed to support the Vital Sync™ software.

5-18 Installation Manual

6 Connectivity to External Systems

6.1 Overview

This chapter provides information on additional installation and configuration steps to allow the Vital Sync™ virtual patient monitoring platform and informatics manager software to interface with certain external systems.

 Note:

To install and configure software, administrative rights are required on destination systems.

 Note:

Software performance and system health should be consistently monitored to allow timely detection and resolution of problems, especially with communication of alarm messages.

A real-time listing of application events, as well as system performance reports, are available in the Vital Sync™ software. Refer to the reference manual for details.

6.2 Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service

Users of external systems that accept HL7 messages, such as Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, can access device and patient data gathered by the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager via the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service. Once the service is installed and configured, the external system can receive platform data via TCP/IP.

 Note:

Users of the Vital Sync™ virtual patient monitoring platform and informatics manager software do not confirm HL7 data sent to external systems. Clinicians will acknowledge and confirm HL7 data received into the EMR or other external system using the appropriate software on that system.

To obtain additional information regarding support for HL7 standards, consult with Medtronic Professional Services or with a local Medtronic representative.

 Note:

The Vital Sync™ virtual patient monitoring platform and informatics manager software also supports use of a solicited interface. For more information about how to configure the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service to work with a solicited interface, consult with Medtronic Professional Services.

Connectivity to External Systems

6.2.1 Installation

The Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service is installed with the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Adapter component of the Vital Sync™ software.

The service is located in the same directory with all other IPI services, and is registered on the system as a Microsoft™* Windows™* service. In the Services Management Console, the service appears as Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service.

Files specific to the service are located in the AdapterPlugins subdirectory of the system’s Config directory.

6.2.2 Additional Configuration

The Vital Sync™ software installer automatically configures the service during installation. In most cases, the default settings require no modification.

However, depending on facility needs, changes may be necessary to configuration settings for data output, or for connectivity to the external system or to Vital Sync™ software components.

 Note:

Always make a backup copy of the configuration file before making any changes to the file.

Data-Related Settings

The scheduleInterval setting in the TimerTrigger section specifies how frequently the service sends HL7 messages. This may require adjustment to accurately account for network or system latency.

To change the schedule interval setting:

Navigate to the directory with the configuration file (for example, C:\Program Files\Covidien\ Informatics).

Open VitalSync.HL7ReporterService.exe.config.

Find the <TimerTrigger> section in the file.

Change the scheduleInterval setting as appropriate to facility needs. The value is specified in milliseconds. The default setting is 60000.

Save and close the configuration file.

Stop the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service.

Restart the service to implement the new setting.

6-2 Installation Manual

 Note:

Typically, the service will send HL7 data at approximately the frequency indicated by the scheduleInterval setting. However, latency due to system processing or in communication between systems may cause delay. If such a delay routinely occurs, adjust the schedule interval parameter appropriately to optimize performance.

External Connectivity-Related Settings

Multiple HL7OutputPluginWithLogging settings specify how the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service connects to the external system that will receive HL7 messages. These settings may require adjustment to account for the facility’s network configuration.

• The server setting identifies the external system to which the service will attempt to connect.

• The portNumber setting specifies the TCP port to which the service will attempt to connect.

• The numberOfRetries setting specifies the number of times the service will try again to connect with

• The waitBetweenRetries setting specifies how long the service will wait after a failed connection

attempt before its next attempt to connect with the external system.

To change external connectivity settings:

Navigate to the directory with the configuration file (for example, C:\Program Files\Covidien\ Informatics).

Open VitalSync.HL7ReporterService.exe.config.

Find the <HL7OutputPluginWithLogging> section of the file.

If needed, change the server value setting to either the name or the IP address of the external system which will be receiving HL7 messages.

If needed, change the portNumber value setting to the TCP port number to which the adapter service will attempt to connect.

If needed, change the numberOfConnectRetries setting to a different value. The default setting is 5, indicating that the adapter will make five additional connection attempts after an initial failure before abandoning the sending of that specific HL7 message.

If needed, change the waitBetweenConnectRetries setting to a different value. The default setting is 1000, indicating that the adapter will wait 1000 milliseconds before making its next connection attempt after an initial connection failure.

Save and close the configuration file.

Stop the Vital Sync HL7 Reporter Service.

Installation Manual 6-5

Connectivity to External Systems

6.4.1 Installation

The Vital Sync Alarm Reporter Service is installed as a component of the Vital Sync™ software.

Files specific to the service are located in the AdapterPlugins subdirectory of the system’s Config directory.

6.4.2 Dependencies

The service has dependencies on three other system components: Microsoft™* Message Queuing; the Data Collection Service component of the Vital Sync™ software; and the Applet Manager Service component of the Vital Sync™ software.

Message queuing and the Data Collection Service should already be installed, and the Applet Manager should also already be installed if platform-related applications or derived parameter algorithms are being used. Refer to Install Message Queuing, page 3-9, and Component Installation, page 4-2.

6.4.3 MSMQ Queue Configuration

The Data Collection Service component sends alarm events to a specific message queue. The Vital Sync Alarm Reporter Service retrieves events from the same queue, transforms the events as appropriate for the external system accessing them, and then forwards the event data to the external system.

To enable MSMQ functionality for alarm events:

Create a queue for alarm events. Reference the Microsoft™* technical document Administering Queues, available online at the following URL:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772532.aspx

 Note:

The preferred name for the queue is ipiCoreEvents, the default name used by the Vital Sync™ Virtual Patient Monitoring Platform and Informatics Manager.

Set security permissions so that the Vital Sync Alarm Reporter Service, Data Collection Service, and Applet Manager Service (if used) can access the queue. The permission settings required will depend on the accounts under which services are run, and whether the queue resides on a different machine than the machine on which the Vital Sync Alarm Reporter Service, the Data Collection Service, or the Applet Manager service (if used) run. Reference the Microsoft™* technical document Set Permissions for Comput- er and Queue Objects, available online at the following URL:
