• Invented by Swedish company Anoto 10 years ago
• A pen that captures what you write when you write on a form printed with a fine dot pattern
• Generates a “scan” of the form• Can also convert your handwriting to text• Captures date & time of pen strokes• Sends data via secure Bluetooth or USB

Paper .... the pleasure
Copyright © Anoto AB - CONFIDENTIAL
• For many its the most natural way to capture dataPhysical attraction - writing on glass is not the same
• No technology barrier• Easy management• The ultimate back-up• BUT ... in slow decline!
Paper .... the pain!
Copyright © Anoto AB - CONFIDENTIAL
• Time and cost for processing paper
• Physical storage• Duplicate data entry• Cost for lost records• Comfort zone!

Principles/Aims Multi Agency Collaboration Split into Work streams including
‘Information Sharing’ Reduce Hospital admissions and
length of stay 200 staff in 5 new Community Resource
Teams (CRTs) Respond to referrals requiring rapid
response within 6 hours Share information between all carers Empower the citizens receiving care and
enable them to be ‘happily independent’

Return on Investment 200 users in Phase 1 reported an average of 10 minutes
saved per patient visit.
With an average of five visits per shift, this equates to projected annual savings in excess of £600,000
Carers no longer need to go to the office to pick up their schedule or file paperwork, so ABHB expects to see significant savings on travel expenses
Main savings will come in medium term from reduced hospital admissions and length of stay

Remote working for community midwives in Sheffield
Tom Dowden – Deputy Service Manager, Obstetrics, Gynaecology & Neonatology
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
The challenge• 100+ staff working across Sheffield• No access to IT, just a car and a mobile phone.
Issues for The Trust Issues for The Midwives
• Very poor knowledge of activity• Large spend on photocopying
information for midwives.• Reliance on clerical staff to
relay discharges and other information on a daily basis by telephone
• Midwifery time to improve data collection (c. 3.5hrs per week)
• No access to even basic hospital data
• Required to carry large quantities of paper – H&S and governance issues.
• Large amounts of time spent ‘communicating’ with hospital and each other.
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
The Specification
• Ability for Community Midwives to exchange information securely with the hospital while ‘on the road’.
• To include– Phone– Email– Recording activity– Caseload management– Access to Trust documents
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
The Initial Solution• Web based system accessed via a BlackBerry.
• Midwives maintain their caseload based on live data from Patient Administration System (PAS).
• Activity recorded in ‘real time’.
• Data from another system (Evolution) re women transferring home are available in real time.
• Referrals to Antenatal clinic made electronically.
• Direct access to results (ICE), outpatient appointments / inpatient stays (PAS) and birth information (Evolution).
• Workload transparent to team and managers for planning.
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
The next challenge
• Change in maternity tariff from payment by results to payment for pathway package.– Increased requirement to collect clinical data
• Desire to develop the scope of electronic referrals available to community midwives.
• Ongoing requirements to collect specific information for audit and CQUINS.
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
Vision
• To electronically record clinical information that forms the ‘hand held notes’.
• To ensure that the woman retains access to her hand held record at all times.
• To do the above in a way that is:– Straightforward and convenient for staff– Accessible to all client groups– As cost effective as possible
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
Why digital pens?
• Digital pen technology enables us to record the information electronically while maintaining a hard copy for the woman to keep.
• The technology is complementary to the systems that we have already developed based on BlackBerry.
• The solution is relatively straightforward for both staff and client groups.
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
Why Anoto?• We initially began a conversation with Portsmouth
NHSFT as they were developing a set of maternity records using digital pens.
• We found that we had both been working on opposite ends of the problem, and had complementary solutions:– Portsmouth had concentrated on the clinical patient records
and obtaining these in an electronic form through working with a partner (Anoto).
– Sheffield had been working on a business focussed system, with a locally developed maternity information system designed with community working at the forefront.
Sheffield Teaching Hospitals - Jessop Wing
Where are we now?
• Completed replacement of legacy Maternity Information System (Protos/Evolution).
• Deploying digital pens to all community midwives.
• Working towards replacement of hand held notes by digital version within next two months.
• Objective of replacing all outpatient and inpatient maternity records with digital notes by year end.
• Developing full integration between digital notes and maternity information system.
