Emergisoft and CapsuleTech Inc. Announced an Integration Partnership that Advances Clinical Productivity in the Emergency Department.
Dallas, TX & Portland, OR - June 14, 2007 – Emergisoft, the leader in Emergency Department Information Systems (EDIS), today announced an integration partnership with CapsuleTech, Inc., the world’s leading independent supplier of connectivity solutions for medical device data integration. The partnership will allow Emergisoft to install Capsule’s DataCaptor™ Connectivity Suite into all present and future healthcare facilities that use Emergisoft’s ED applications.
DataCaptor automatically integrates patient clinical information from any bedside medical device by converting medical device data to HL7 format and communicating it to EmergisoftED™ in a unified data stream. DataCaptor supports one of the largest device interface libraries in the world with over 330 different types of medical devices, such as patient monitors, ventilators and infusion pumps, supported.
The partnership will benefit Emergency Departments by offering clinicians a more time-efficient process for gathering patient information. The information that DataCaptor communicates to EmergisoftED was usually collected manually at each patient’s bedside device several times a day. By seamlessly connecting DataCaptor to EmergisoftED, vital signs and other important medical device data can be available for Emergency Department staff to access, review, track and report online in real time, thus increasing clinical productivity and efficiencies.
Charlie Kesinger, COO of Emergisoft states, “This is an exciting opportunity for Emergisoft and CapsuleTech to provide our clients with the necessary tools which will allow for automated patient monitoring.” Mr. Kesinger also adds, “This relationship further highlights our commitment to provide our client’s with best-of-breed solutions and support of strategic initiatives that will bring improvements to the Emergency Department.”
"We are delighted to work with Emergisoft,” says Arnaud Houette, CEO of CapsuleTech. “This partnership will give us the opportunity to further advance clinical productivity via workflow automation in the Emergency department, where every second counts,” adds Mr. Houette.
