The technology will be presented for the first time at the IATI BIOMED conference that will be held between May 24-26 in Tel Aviv. The unique technology led to a collaboration between the developer of the technology, the Israeli company Beame, and the German giant Brainlab.
The Israeli company Beame has developed a unique technology that allows for the optimization of the encryption process and the sharing of information in hospitals. The development - a secure 'channel' between mobile devices and the local medical server, will allow any doctor to save images directly from his mobile phone to the local server very simply - all the doctor has to do is reach the relevant terminal, scan a code, and connect. At this point, he will be able to save images directly to the medical file, without the necessary need for a WI-FI network. The revolutionary system will be unveiled for the first time as part of the IATI BIOMED conference that will take place between May 24 and 26 at the David Intercontinental Hotel in Tel Aviv.
Beame's development resulted in a collaboration with the German giant, Brainlab. As part of the collaboration, Brainlab purchased the Israeli technology for millions of shekels for a period of three years, with an option to extend, during which the technology will be embedded in the company's BUZZ cave through which the doctors will be able to connect to the server using their mobile devices in a secure manner.
Until now, the use of mobile phones in hospitals was limited and even prohibited due to fear of harming the patient's information security. At the same time, doctors are interested in using their cell phone as a work tool, in a similar way to home use, for taking pictures of a patient, documenting information and internal organizational communication. However, the medical organization's information security systems do not allow access to the cloud, so currently all information is stored locally on the servers. Beame's development is essential in operating rooms and enables continuous and extremely secure connections between the doctors' devices and the hospitals' protected networks. While until today the information went from the doctor's prescriptions to the hospital's database, using pen and paper or by connecting directly to the computer - today, the doctor can use the smart device in his possession comfortably and the contents go through encryption to the central medical server, and at the same time to each patient's personal medical file.
The company's next product, which is in the development stages, will allow each patient to save his medical record on the phone and allow access to the doctor only on demand, so that the control of the confidential information will remain in the hands of the patient and will not circulate in the 'cloud', as is the case today. So it will happen that in the future the doctors will manage the data files from the mobile phone and will use the photos to document doctor-patient meetings much more.
Zeev Gluzman, CEO and founder of Beame sold his previous company, Voyant Health, which developed software for computerized planning of orthopedic surgeries, and Beame is the new company he founded, which leads information security solutions in the medical world, and in particular end-to-end encryption products, and takes an active part In the information revolution applied to the world of medicine.
