MAINTAINING CLINICAL MESSAGING DURING NETWORK INSTABILITY

Abstract:

Various techniques for facilitating communication with and across a clinical environment and a cloud environment are described. For example, a method for providing messaging in a clinical environment during a temporary network interruption is described. A connectivity adapter may keep the messages in the queue despite the temporary network interruption. As long as the network connection is restored before the messages become stale, the connectivity adapter may be able to transmit the messages in the queue despite the network interruption.
