Patient Registry
Understanding Patient Care Impacts
Patient Registry is a multi-disciplined registry system that collects and analyzes information on the incident, severity, causes and outcomes of trauma, stroke, STEMI and burn to evaluate factors and the health system’s response.
The Patient Registry seamlessly integrates pre-hospital EMS incident data with the continuing patient care data in the emergency room and hospital, ensuring patient centric data aggregation and comprehensive understanding. The goal of the Patient Registry is to gather information more efficiently in order to better analyze treatment methods to reduce morbidity and mortality.
Patient Registry is a database-driven Web application based on the Microsoft SQL Server allowing for secure access from anywhere at any time to authorized persons. This solution is an essential component for scalability and standardization on the statewide and local level.
Hospital Exclusive Views
Although statewide data aggregation for analysis and reporting of medical data is the mainstay of this system, it also provides each associated hospital several benefits. Hospital views include access to the online incident form for data entry and full reporting capabilities of all data associated with that hospital. Even with hundreds of hospitals using the same system, each hospital will access their own exclusive view.
Secure, Reliable Access
This secure system conforms to HIPAA regulations through secure logins, hierarchical based password administration, audit trails and site monitoring. Data validation checks are enforced at all levels allowing for many different user groups to access and view specific data according to their permission. Data validation algorithms also serve to ensure data integrity during imports and exports.
Patient Centric Tracking & Reporting
Many trauma and medical incidents begin as an EMS incident, which may include multiple events (BLS, ALS, Airlift, outpatient recovery, etc.) for one patient. The data linkage between these systems would be a valuable source of information that not only eliminate redundant data, but also efficiently and realistically track times, procedures and outcomes related to the patient.
Standards-Based Communication
Standardized code datasets and data exchange formats support communications between systems and agencies and NTDB compliance.
