Hospital Clinical Monitoring Systems
MedGuardian
MedGuardian is a Web-based patient care monitoring and risk management system for hospitals. It provides automated data collection, reporting and analysis for improving clinical treatments and reducing medical errors. Patient treatment issues such as clinical complications, unexpected outcomes or other medical issues can be monitored and tracked providing continuous, real-time analysis and improvement. Risk events of concern to a hospital, including information about patients, visitors, and employees are also documented and tracked.
I-Linksm Integration Engine
The I-Linksm Integration Engine is a system for integrating and collecting information from hospital information systems. The I-Link Integration Engine is designed to collect existing patient, practitioner and visitor information contained in any other system within the hospital. It also can connect physician Electronic Medical Record (EMR) practice systems to the hospital for seamless real-time tracking of patients as they traverse from physician offices to the hospital and back again.
The Company employs a strategy to leverage, build or acquire compatible healthcare technologies that will create valuable business offerings for the healthcare and biotechnology information technology market. “We are executing on our corporate plan through incubator spin-off initiatives such as MedBioWeb, developing continuous quality improvement opportunities with important hospital prospects, and building content and adding revenue initiatives with our major medical and biotechnology portals,” said Alan Grofé, President.
MedNets.com Acquistion
Healthnostics announced at the end of November an agreement to acquire MedNets.com, an Internet portal providing information resources to consumers and healthcare professionals. The acquisition is expected to close by December 31, 2007. MedNets.com had nearly 400,000 visitors in the past year with a concentration in consumers. This consumer focus joins the MedBioWeb divisions FamilyMedicalNet portal and further complements the MedBioWorld medical and biotechnology professional portal.
“With the MedNets.com acquisition, we are adding a major Internet healthcare presence. MedNets.com is a well established destination that we can further develop into a major consumer and medical professional information resource center,” stated Alan Grofé, President. “MedNets.com further enhances our attractiveness to advertisers and sponsors seeking multiple platforms for an economy of scale.”
Availability of SelectedWorks Authoring Platform
In late October, Healthnostics announced the availability of the SelectedWorks™ (The Berkeley Electronic Press) authoring platform from the Company’s partner The Berkeley Electronic Press to qualified MedBioWorld.com users. SelectedWorks web-based services will help to personalize the MedBioWorld experience enabling researchers to create clean, elegantly designed publication web pages for their scholarly research.
“SelectedWorks is a new personal publishing platform that allows authors to fully customize their content, present their research in an engaging manner, and take control of ownership and dissemination,” said Kathleen Cowan, Product Marketing Manager at The Berkeley Electronic Press. “By offering this new service to the MedBioWorld community, we hope to facilitate the SelectedWorks mission: to give scholars, researchers and medical professionals the ability to bring their scholarly output to a new level of visibility and control.”
“So much of a researcher’s work is found scattered across various sources making it incredibly difficult to see the progress being made on their research topic. With SelectedWorks, a researcher’s body of work can now be found in a single place and viewed in a clear, contiguous manner significantly enhancing the dissemination of their new discoveries. It is an invaluable tool for researchers worldwide,” stated Alan Grofé, President.
