Boston Scientific and GE to Integrate Patient Data
Posted on: Thursday, 8 November 2007, 15:00 CST
Boston Scientific and GE Healthcare have announced the first patient data integration between a cardiac rhythm management remote monitoring system and a physician's electronic medical record, currently installed at Seattle Cardiology and Cardiology Consultants of Philadelphia.
The integration uses Boston Scientific's Latitude patient management system to allow clinicians to access information from a patient's implanted cardiac device and store within the GE Centricity electronic medical record (EMR) system in the form of lab results.
Dr Scott Hessen, chief, clinical cardiac electrophysiology, Cardiology Consultants of Philadelphia, said: "The collaboration between GE Healthcare and Boston Scientific provides a more comprehensive patient record and enables physicians to make more accurate decisions regarding their patients."
