As the Middle East’s healthcare sector continues to focus on leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT) to drive world-class healthcare systems, Honeywell (NYSE: HON) will showcase its latest ‘Connected Healthcare’ offering at Arab Health 2018 in support of this ambition. The event and congress will take place between 29 January - 01 February 2018 at Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre.
Honeywell, a global leader in connected healthcare, delivers ‘Connected Hospital’, ‘Connected Clinician’ and ‘Connected Patient’ initiatives through IoT and software solutions that integrate infrastructure, systems, clinicians, and patients to enable better care.
The role of IoT and connectivity in the healthcare sector is more important than ever as governments across the Middle East implement initiatives to foster better healthcare for citizens and residents. According to Frost & Sullivan*, by 2025, IoT will generate economic benefits between USD 4 to 11 trillion globally. In the Middle East, the healthcare market in the region holds robust potential for IoT as new and existing healthcare facilities aim to be the most innovative and advanced.
Honeywell’s solutions are well positioned to support this quest for healthcare innovation with technologies such as non-invasive sensors for measuring vital signs and IP-based nurse call systems. There is also a major focus on better hygiene and medication management, alarm management and intelligent building automation systems for hospitals and clinics of all sizes.
