The FINANCIAL -- Helping to ensure the safety of moms and newborn babies during their hospital stay requires access to comprehensive clinical data to make critical decisions. Much of this information is stored in different hospital information systems.

Envision a Labor and Delivery department where clinicians can view their patients around the clock while reviewing data from different HIS on a single desktop. What if IT leaders could meet system-wide integration goals and deploy intuitive workflow applications that are easy for clinicians to use?

Now, with the launch of Connect, an add-on module to Centricity Perinatal, clinicians and IT leaders can experience a new level of interoperability. Centricity Perinatal – Connect provides the ability to correlate data from HIS and other sources onto the fetal strip. It enables access to multiple fetal monitoring strips while allowing documentation in the HIS all at the same time, without obstructing any clinical information. According to General Electric Company, these enhancements help clinicians deliver their best care all while maximizing current hospital investment in perinatal IT.

Everything a clinician needs to know is in one, easy to navigate location, helps to enable fast, more informed clinical decisions, streamlining existing workflows and patient care. Centricity Perinatal - Connect integrates smoothly with any major HIS allowing healthcare executives to maximize their financial performance, streamline enterprise connectivity, and enable clinicians to review data and drive quality outcomes. Clinicians can review data in one place, at one time, in pieces or altogether without having to sort through multiple data sources, while watching for potentially critical trends across the fetal strips.
