Press Release
Body = Scottsdale, AZ – August 2004 – Carefx Corporation
announced today that Children’s Medical Center in Dallas will
implement the Carefx Fusionfx Context Manager™ along with
the Unityfx Emtek Viewer which will allow their
clinicians to visually integrate data between Cerner CCOW enabled
PowerChart and Emtek.
Children's Medical
Center is committed to enhancing the existing information in the
electronic health record to support patient safety, reduce errors
and improve patient care. The ideal process is to give authorized
care givers immediate access to patient information electronically
at the point of care wherever and whenever needed.
Implementation
of the Carefx Fusionfx Context Manager and the Unityfx Emtek Viewer
will establish the infrastructure needed to visually integrate products
and applications that support the design of the optimal care processes
of The Electronic
Clinical System. At the end of May, Children’s Medical Center
Dallas conducted a go live test with the Carefx products with full
implementation in early August.
“Carefx
has helped Children’s Medical Center in Dallas visually integrate
PowerChart and Emtek. It allows clinicians to view their information
both internally and
externally along with saving them a great deal of time not having
to search for patients more than once,” said Terrence Macaleer,
Carefx Chief Executive Officer.
Richard Duncan,
Vice President and Chief Information Officer for Children’s
is enthusiastic about the early results from the implementation.
“We see this as an important step to provide seamless information
to clinicians in one place at the
point of care. We will continue to look to other data sources where
this technology will be used to bring information to clinicians
in this same way.”
