Acuity System overview

System configurations

The Acuity System consists of an Acuity Central Station that receives, displays and
analyzes information from various wireless and hardwired monitoring devices. Mobile
Acuity LT Central Stations are laptop computers.

Some Acuity Systems can send patient data to Internet browsers and hospital information
systems (HISs) via the optional Welch Allyn Connectivity Server (WACS). The systems can
receive patient information also from HISs.

The FlexNet

®

concept allows several Acuity Systems to centrally monitor groups of

patients resident on local Acuity Systems within a hospital and on networked Acuity
Systems in smaller clinics or hospitals. Transfers can occur from system to system and
remote viewing of real-time and historical Full Disclosure data is available for consultation
from any of the Acuity Systems.
