The Vocera SIP Adapter recieves data from a nurse call system, which can be utilized for Vocera Platform communication.
Adapters send information to and receive information from Vocera Platform, as well as monitor and collect data. Each adapter is configured to allow the Vocera Platform to communicate with a specific type of resource and any devices that resource may control.
The Vocera SIP Adapter (Session Initiation Protocol) is used to receive messages and data from various Nurse Call systems, such as Rauland Responder 5. This data is then used to communicate necessary information, such as the patient's room or bed number in a facility, as well as sending an alert type for that message.
By combining the information received through the Vocera SIP Adapter with information received through a device adapter, such as CUCM or Smartphone adapter, then an assigned device can receive a message when a patient alert is triggered.
As seen in the figure below, when an alert is initiated by a patient or a clinician, a message is created and relayed to the Vocera SIP Adapter. It is then sent to the Vocera Platform, where that message is logged and stored in the Data Manager.
