Virtual Network

See across multiple data sources

A method of delivering a system or application remotely in order to minimize infrastructural and economic overhead

Provides a high degree of Return on Investment as the top-tier expenditures are reduced such as hardware and labor

Remotely deployed applications are easily upgraded and maintained as all of the processes are remotely maintained as well

Application

Vendor Neutral

Integral Interfaces

VM Ware Deployable

SQL Analytics

Custom Reporting

Agile the ability to quickly access varied resources.

By utilizing a combination of interfaces and interface tools, a broader vision of the patient data can be accessed – in many cases more than the EMR itself.

“Best of Breed” record keeping systems are a start, but require vendor neutral access and agile data collection and search tools to enable data sets that might not otherwise exist.

Search over dissimilar data sets.

The EMR has mostly reached its apogee of significance without specifically addressing the granular data collection that must occur for clinical analytics that possess greater sensitivity/specificity

New interfaces technologies are still in their development that address the need to archive, categorize and consider data types such as dynamic waveforms, discrete non-HL7 data, and demographics

The EMR will evolve dimensionally from a flat database with interfaces to a dynamic 2D model with Service Oriented Architecture

These enabling technologies such as Lumedx will provide the EMR with the ability to collect, analyze and report as a service without re-inventing the wheel

Lumedx has over 100 tried and tested interfaces with diverse systems

ranging from

hemodynamic devices

to perfusion management systems to

financial and demographic data.
