关于客户
Edward-Elmhurst Healthcare 是伊利诺伊州最大的综合医疗系统之一，由 Edward Hospital 和 Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare 合并而成。该系统每年进行约 33,000 次心脏病学研究 - Edward 校区进行 22,000 次检查，Elmhurst 校区进行 11,000 次检查。他们使用 Merge Hemo 和 Merge Cardio 进行每项研究。该系统还使用 Merge Healthcare 的零下载诊断查看器 iConnect® Access，它允许医生在电子病历 (EMR) 工作流程中访问患者的所有图像，而无需下载任何软件。他们还可以在任何基于浏览器的设备上查看图像。
挑战
2013 年，爱德华医院及健康服务中心与艾姆赫斯特纪念医疗中心合并，创建了伊利诺伊州最大的医疗系统之一。与此类合并通常的情况一样，新更名的爱德华-艾姆赫斯特医疗中心的高管面临着众多整合挑战，必须确定最大限度地发挥每个组织优势的最佳方式。其中一个挑战是决定使用哪种心脏病学系统。合并前，两家医院都使用 Merge 的心脏病学解决方案 Merge Cardio™ 和 Merge Hemo™，以便在单一的 Web 视图中查看每位患者的完整记录。爱德华-艾姆赫斯特医疗中心的影像信息学经理 Jeff Hanson 表示，继续使用这些产品的决定很容易，因为两家医院的用户都对它们的性能感到满意。
解决方案
心导管实验室技术人员使用 Merge Hemo 系统来处理每个库存病例，并记录和监控患者。借助 Merge Hemo，Edward-Elmhurst 可以使用单个服务器为多个设施和部门提供服务，并将他们的心导管实验室流程自动化为数字患者记录。许多有价值的功能包括易于使用的触摸屏界面、自动填充已知数据字段的模板以及体验实时患者监控的能力。来自 Merge Hemo 的数据被传输到 Merge Cardio，心脏病专家在那里完成他们的最终检查报告。借助 Merge Cardio，他们可以从集中的基于 Web 的系统访问和管理患者的数字记录，从而节省时间并获得更准确、更完整和更快速的结果。Merge Cardio 还整合了来自不同来源的患者信息，并允许心脏病专家生成可在单个会话中分发的报告。

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
