Melding medical devices with the electronic medical record (EMR) is the next step for improved patient care. Integrating patient information stored in the EMR and data collected by devices is essential to a facility’s ability to provide quality patient care.

Many facilities today are faced with the challenge of incorporating the information collected by medical devices that are either too smart, coming equipped with functionality and applications which duplicate information already maintained in a patient’s EMR, or unable to share information in the correct framework.

Because the IntraNexus open architecture is organically developed, we are able to work closely with each of our clients to customize the SAPPHIRE® functionality to bridge the gap between medical devices and patient information. The IntraNexus scalable, enterprise approach to device connectivity offers individualized capability for medical devices. The SAPPHIRE open architecture enables healthcare organizations to:

• Connect people to medical devices
• Connect devices to clinician workflow
• Connect workflow to improved patient outcomes

The IntraNexus pharmacy solution’s automated medication dispensing devices support clinician workflow from the central pharmacy through the entire care unit. These unify the entire medication process supported by the SAPPHIRE solution, ensuring a single source of information from the time a pharmacy order is placed, through medication administration at the bedside. This seamless creates an unrivaled cohesive process.

Key Benefits:
• Increased patient safety throughout the medication process
• Less time spent in the medication removal process
• Improved efficiency for clinicians
