A new, affordable, clinical collaboration platform has been demonstrated at the annual Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS 2015; Chicago, IL, USA) Conference.

The platform can be used to complement existing departmental Vendor-Neutral Archives (VNA) or Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS) by enabling providers to share a variety of patient clinical data with clinicians, and patients.

The Clinical Collaboration Platform was developed by Carestream (Rochester, NY, USA) and includes a web-based data ingestion module that searches and creates metadata tags for unstructured data, the Carestream Vue Motion universal viewer for access from FDA-approved mobile devices, an embedded patient portal for viewing and downloading clinical data, and a real-time business dashboard module that can help healthcare IT managers streamline operations, and compliance.

Ludovic D’Aprea, Carestream’s general manager for Healthcare Information Solutions, said, “One of the biggest challenges facing healthcare IT today is the vast amount of data that exists in siloed systems that limit accessibility. This type of infrastructure increases costs and makes it difficult to access clinical data, which impede the quality of diagnostic services.”
