Safety SOA-DB: A tolerant architecture failures to universal access to medical hospital devices
Hospital Medical Devices, Service Oriented Architecture, Fault Tolerance, Quality Service, Patient Monitoring.
he great diversity in the architecture of biomedical devices, coupled with their different communication protocols, has hindered the implementation of systems that need access to these devices. Given these differences, arises the need to provide access to such devices in a transparent way. In this sense, this work proposes a service-oriented architecture to access medical hospital devices as a way to abstract the mechanism for writing and reading data on these devices, thus contributing to the increase in quality and productivity of medical hospital systems in order to enable that the focus of the development team of biomedical software is almost exclusively intended for its functional requirements, i.e. business rules relevant to the problem domain.
To make robust SOA-DB will be used concepts such as fault tolerance and quality of service, as the critical context that this work is inserted, the patient monitoring. These questions serve to increase considerably the quality in patient monitoring. The SOA-DB also contributing to the analysis of data monitored by hospital medical devices, for as act in access to these, there will be the possibility of recording these data, since the conventional way is performed only with instant information provided by the medical hospital device. To develop this work, technologies will be used as the XML language and the Java programming language, concepts such as Software Engineering, Design Patterns, Quality Service and Fault Tolerance.
To validate the SOA-DB, access protocols to hospital medical devices will be used as HL7 and a real environment of acquisition of such data, the Intensive Care Unit of the University Hospital Onofre Lopes.
