InterSystems lanceert nieuwe coronavirus screening-functionaliteit voor TrakCare®

Uniforme aanbieder van zorginformatiesysteem reageert snel op clinici die patiënten met 2019-nCov screenen en ondersteunen

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – (BUSINESS WIRE) – InterSystems geeft wereldwijde functionaliteit vrij voor haar TrakCare® uniforme gezondheidsinformatiesysteem voor het screenen en ondersteunen van patiënten met 2019-nCoV, de nieuwe coronavirusinfectie die is ontstaan in Wuhan in China.

De functionaliteit is nu beschikbaar voor gebruikers van de nieuwste edities van TrakCare, en klanten in China en meerdere andere landen, waaronder het Verenigd Koninkrijk en de Verenigde Arabische Emiraten, zijn er al mee begonnen.

De functionaliteit stelt clinici in staat om patiënten te screenen op 2019-nCoV, met behulp van de World Health Organisation (WHO) en een link naar de Wuhan Coronavirus Global Cases-tracking-app van het Johns Hopkins Center voor Systems Science en Engineering in de VS.

InterSystems Releases Novel Coronavirus Screening Functionality for TrakCare®

Unified healthcare information system provider is quick to respond to help clinicians screen and support patients with 2019-nCov

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– InterSystems is releasing global functionality for its TrakCare® unified healthcare information system to screen and support patients with 2019-nCoV, the novel coronavirus infection that originated in Wuhan in China.

The functionality is available to users of the latest editions of TrakCare now, and customers in China and multiple other countries, including the United Kingdom and United Arab Emirates have already begun using it.

The functionality enables clinicians to screen patients for 2019-nCoV, using World Health Organisation (WHO) guidance, and a link to the Wuhan Coronavirus Global Cases tracking app provided by the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering in the US.

Icons will indicate whether screening has been undertaken and the results. There is no generally accepted treatment for 2019-nCoV. However, the WHO is advising hospitals to isolate patients and protect others from infection, and the final element of the new TrakCare functionality will advise clinicians of any steps they should take.

“InterSystems keeps a close watch on the world’s healthcare requirements, so it can respond to issues that it can help to address in a timely manner,” said Hazem El Oraby, MD, chief medical officer for TrakCare at InterSystems. “We are proud to have deployed this quickly for our users.”

“This is a great example of how TrakCare can be updated in real-time to urgently respond to threats and deployed rapidly to the organisations and clinicians that need it; particularly those using the latest edition of our systems,” El Oraby continued.

TrakCare is currently deployed in 27 countries around the globe, including China and throughout the Asia-Oceania region. Last week, TrakCare received a Best in KLAS designation for Global Electronic Medical Records in the Asia/Oceania region.
