Cardiac Science Upgrades Its Online ECG Access Tool for Physicians, Clinicians, and Technicians.


HeartCentrix([R]) 6.2 Data Management Provides Device Connectivity and Productivity Tools to EMR (ElectroMagnetic Radiation) The emanation of energy from everything in the universe. Although the EMR from electrical and electronic devices is typically measured for practical, every-day situations, every object, including humans, emanates energy.  Systems for Rapid Access to ECG ECG electrocardiogram.

BOTHELL, Wash. -- Cardiac Science today announced the launch of its HeartCentrix([R]) 6.2 data management product for the physician office. HeartCentrix is the only solution that connects Burdick([R]) and Quinton([R]) equipment to an EMR system, giving access to test results remotely and across locations with a single sign-on from within the EMR itself.

"With HeartCentrix, our GEMMS (Global Enterprise Manufacturing Management System) See Oracle Process Manufacturing. See also GEMS.  ONE([R]) electronic medical record (EMR) system now provides immediate access to patient information and we don't have to worry about losing the hard copy of test results," said Dr. David Griffen from Heart Clinic Arkansas. "If a patient suddenly presents with chest pain, we can go to his electronic chart immediately for the critical information we need. It's all right there at our fingertips."

HeartCentrix saves time and paper, eliminates errors, helps to ensure patient safety, and communicates bi-directionally with many Burdick and Quinton devices. The 6.2 version offers four new features versus the prior release, namely:

* HeartCentrix 6.2 interfaces with the Burdick Universal ECG, a PC-based ECG solution;

* HeartCentrix 6.2 is certified with the Allscripts([R]) UAI UAI Unprotected Anal Intercourse

* HeartCentrix 6.2 supports VISTA and remains Windows([R]) compatible; and

* HeartCentrix 6.2 allows local printing, supplementing EMR systems' printing capabilities.

"Connectivity is becoming more important in cardiac diagnostic testing Diagnostic testing

The heart has four chambers. The right and left atria are at the top of the heart and receive returning blood from the veins. The right and left ventricles are at the bottom of the heart and act as the body's main pumps.
([R]) 3100 or 6100 ECG devices now come with Ethernet communications as a standard option. Cardiac Science is always seeking to provide greater value to our customers-and this new HeartCentrix release is one more way we meet that goal."

HeartCentrix is easy to understand and use. Its familiar Windows-based interface flows left to right in a logical progression. Using a single sign-on from within the EMR, users can download orders and patient demographics directly to Burdick and Quinton diagnostic devices, upload results back to the EMR after tests are performed, and review and edit test results at the office or any remote location.
