Shenzhen Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital operates two campuses—Hongli and Fuqiang—and functions as a municipal-level integrated medical and health institution covering healthcare, clinical services, disease prevention, scientific research, education, training, and community health services. It is a nationally renowned Grade A-III specialized maternity and child healthcare hospital. The hospital has established a two-tier, three-level maternal and child healthcare network, with its main campus as the hub, district-level maternal and child healthcare hospitals as pillars, and supported by comprehensive hospitals and community health centers.

To further enhance service quality and core competitiveness, Shenzhen Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital partnered with IFREECOMM to deploy an integrated video conferencing system tightly aligned with its clinical workflows. This system enables rapid, seamless remote consultations and academic exchanges with other campuses and hospitals—significantly boosting operational efficiency.
Remote Consultations: Connecting Experts and Patients Across Locations
Remote consultations allow medical specialists from multiple locations to jointly evaluate a patient via secure networks. The attending physician at the patient’s local facility transmits electronic medical records, basic clinical data, and diagnostic imaging—including X-rays, CT scans, ECGs, and pathology slides—via the regional healthcare alliance’s HIS and PACS systems directly to each expert’s workstation.
Experts review the shared data collaboratively; when needed, they may request the attending physician to perform real-time examinations on-site while experts observe the procedure and results live—enabling accurate, consensus-based diagnoses.
Surgical Teaching: Elevating Grassroots Clinical Capabilities
Operating rooms are equipped with teaching terminals that capture and digitize video feeds from surgical field cameras, panoramic cameras, endoscopes, microscopes, and patient monitors. These signals are encoded and streamed over the network to dedicated teaching rooms and remote classrooms. Instructors deliver live commentary using real-time surgical visuals and contextual data, while remote participants view synchronized multi-angle feeds—and interact directly with instructors for clarification.

Remote surgical teaching greatly enhances clinical training accessibility for grassroots and remote-area physicians—bringing expert-led instruction directly to them.
Day-to-Day Video Conferencing: Real-Time, Zero-Distance Communication
The system supports large-scale, multi-level cascaded meetings across regions and departments—meeting diverse hospital collaboration needs. Meeting templates (e.g., weekly briefings, routine reviews) can be pre-configured in the cloud platform, which automatically allocates resources, initiates sessions on schedule, and dials into all participating endpoints—streamlining operations and improving user experience.
Additionally, the system features open, standards-based APIs and architecture—enabling flexible integration with third-party platforms and seamless compatibility with mainstream conferencing hardware, eliminating redundant investment and infrastructure waste.

Deployed by IFREECOMM, the integrated video conferencing system also supports bidirectional remote consultations, remote radiology/pathology diagnostics, and more—efficiently linking the hospital’s headquarters with affiliated branches and bridging critical communication gaps between specialists and patients.
Leveraging high-fidelity, enterprise-grade video conferencing technology, IFREECOMM has successfully implemented remote consultation and conferencing solutions for institutions including Guizhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Fujian Medical University Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital, and China Marrow Donor Program—significantly enhancing workflow efficiency and service delivery. Moving forward, IFREECOMM will continue strengthening and advancing its audiovisual expertise to deliver tailored, mission-critical video solutions for healthcare providers nationwide.
