VLAN networks
If data is being exchanged within a single physical network and a clinical information system is used, an
independent VLAN network must be set up for the clinical information system. Additionally, at least one of
the following independent VLAN networks must be set up:
– Network for medical devices for intrahospital use
– Network for portable patient monitors
WLAN networks
– On Dräger devices, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) WPA2 with pre-shared key
administration is used during installation.
– With some Dräger clinical devices, the installation is carried out using SSL and additional functions
that are defined in the form "Manufacturer Disclosure Statement for Medical Device Security" (MDS
2
).
Serial interfaces
The following interfaces are supported:
– RS232 interfaces conforming to EIA RS232 (CCITT V.24/V.28) for the following applications:
– MEDIBUS, MEDIBUS.X
– Paging systems
– Connections to medical devices from other manufacturers
– Interfaces conforming to IEEE˽1073 (Medical Information Bus) for connection to medical devices from
other manufacturers
The requirements of IEEE 1073.3.2 or the combined requirements of IEEE 1073.3.1 and IEEE
1073.4.1 must be complied with.
Consequences of using an unsuitable network
If the network does not meet the requirements, hazardous situations can result. The following situations
can occur with this device:
– Due to unsafe distributed alarm system:
– Alarms are not transmitted.
– Alarms or data are delayed.
– False alarms are indicated.
– During an interruption of the network connection:
– Alarms are not transmitted.
– Suppressed alarms or alarm tones are not reactivated, but remain suppressed.
– Without firewall and antivirus software:
– Data are not protected.
– Device settings are changed.
– The device generates false alarms or no alarms.
– Data are sent incomplete, sent to the wrong device, or not sent at all.
– Patient data are intercepted, falsified, or damaged.
