Computer Assisted Practice of Cardiology (CAPOC). Phase 1. Communications Study for Naval Regional Medical Center (NRMC) San Diego.

Abstract

Twelve communication methodologies, determined to have the proper data transfer capabilities and cost requirements, were evaluated and further narrowed to four systems suitable to meet CAPOC operational requirements. Fixed and operational costs were then compared to determine the least-cost communication support subsystem. The analysis revealed that no one system was most cost-effective for all sites. Therefore, a hybrid communication system, containing the flexibility for change in networks and the capability to satisfy all requirements at the least possible cost, was recommended. The hybrid network proved to be significantly more cost-effective than using one specific system.
