Centricity™ Clinical Archive1 Solution Consolidate siloes of dataBuild a unified patient recordShare across the care continuum

For care providers who need a unified view of patient images and documents to inform critical treatment decisions, Centricity Clinical Archive Solution helps them save time and lower costs. It’s a standards-based solution that intelligently weaves together a longitudinal view of patient data from different vendor systems and expands access through a web-based, zero footprint viewer. As a result, Centricity Clinical Archive delivers clinical insight at the point of care helping reduce unnecessary tests and optimize total cost of ownership.

Unlike vendor neutral archives that only support departmental DICOM consolidation, Centricity Clinical Archive helps clinicians streamline enterprise-level and community-wide collaboration through a breadth of interoperability standards, including IHE-XDS, HL7, and EMPI. Its native tag morphing capability can help CIOs overcome limitations and variances of multi-vendor PACS systems to optimize image sharing and workflows. It also offers a choice of virtual server deployment to save data center space, enables disaster recovery by connecting to cloud storage, and enhances reliability with standardized configurations.

Transform departmental silos into powerful, information sharing engines

Centricity Clinical Archive provides an IHE-compliant, vendor-neutral platform. Key benefits:

• Reduced costs of storage and information management with standardized clinical IT infrastructure

• Image enabled EMR offering a single point of access for clinicians

• Build a unified patient record by consolidating and linking DICOM and Non DICOM data across departments

• Improved clinician productivity and care coordination by easy access and sharing of patient records anywhere anytime†

• Reduced burden of manual and duplicative documentation using the Media Manager mobile application

• Enable service continuity with high availability, disaster recovery, and cloud-ready infrastructure

Easily access data and images in one location

Centricity Clinical Archive provides both a robust, multi-level vendor neutral archive (VNA) and a core platform for seamless image exchange

DICOM tag morphing

“There is opportunity to enhance the system with cardiology, pathology, endoscopy, dermatology, ophthalmology—basically all the ‘ologies.’ That’s the concept of the vendor-neutral archive: We can scale out across hospitals using standards, and we can also scale up within the functions of a hospital.”Thomas Hough President and Founder of True North

Centricity Clinical Archive – an IHE- compliant vendor-neutral platform provides a highly scalable, standards compliant, and cloud-ready repository that helps you consolidate and manage clinical content across your enterprise. Key features include:

• Multi-ology, multi-site clinical content repository. A truly standards-based archive that supports DICOM, IHE-XDS and HL7 standards, providing multi-level neutrality (underlying IT infrastructure, application and format neutrality) to ensure consistent clinical data consolidation and presentation across systems. Centricity Clinical Archive supports seamless expansion from a single departmental repository to a single hospital multi-ology repository, to a platform for image exchange across the community, helping deliver data consistency within multiple patient identifier environments. Centricity Clinical Archive provides logical separation of information to help provide economies of scale.

• Scalable & highly redundant infrastructure. Centricity Clinical Archive supports unlimited storage and computing expansion through virtualization and vendor agnostic technologies. Centricity Clinical Archive offers a multi-site load balanced architecture to ensure high availability and disaster recovery.

• Image life cycle management (ILM). Centricity Clinical Archive makes it easy to create, modify and implement rules to govern the management of imaging studies across the enterprise. ILM helps customers compress, move or delete images to control storage growth and respond to regulatory requirements for image retention.

• Dynamic and static tag morphing. Centricity Clinical Archive offers dynamic and static tag morphing capabilities as part of the repository to manipulate content of DICOM tags in a study during archiving or retrieve. This helps overcome the limitations, inconsistencies and variances in the implementation of the DICOM standard across multi-vendor PACS systems to help improve standards-based sharing of images and workflow across the enterprise.

• More comprehensive multi-ology patient jacket. Centricity Clinical Archive links patient’s images and clinical documents from multi-vendor PACS, RIS and other department IT systems to create a more comprehensive patient jacket. Centricity Clinical Archive provides standards-compliant approach for the 3rd party IT systems and viewers to access the patient information and present to the care providers.

• Location agnostic information access for physicians. Centricity Clinical Archive includes Centricity Universal Viewer ZFP2, a standards-based (DICOM & IHE-XDS) clinical information viewer that offers a highly intuitive matrix view of the patient’s historical record with thumbnail features that allow for easier access. Centricity Universal Viewer ZFP is a zero footprint viewer, that not only promotes anywhere, anytime† access of information, but also interfaces seamlessly with a hospital’s EMR systems, providing a combined view of DICOM and non-DICOM (pdf, videos, images) data.

• A master patient index to link patient records across network boundaries.

· Standardized interfaces seamless connectivity. Centricity Clinical Archive provides a messaging interface engine to combine workflow systems like HIS and RIS to update information repository and keep information consistent across systems. In addition, a device interface engine helps connect non-standard devices and systems to store data in the repository in a standards format.

· Mobile image acquisition application: an application that runs on a smart phone or tablet that provides for the acquisition and storage of visible light images. Images are converted to XDS format for storage and can be viewed on Centricity Universal Viewer directly or through an EMR. The acquisition device can sit on top of any storage or archive product that is able to accept and store XDS images.

Enriched patient records – directly from mobile devices

Benefits • Designed in consideration of patient

data safety — no data left behind on the mobile device. Automated lock-out for unattended devices.

• Improve staff efficiency by reducing manual printing and scanning of images and documents.

• Reduce time taken to document a wound case, by reducing the number of steps needed to add visible light images to the patient’s medical record.

• Enhance enterprise wide access to images and videos for clinicians and specialists across the enterprise.

• Standardize documentation quality and consistency required for reimbursement submissions and regulatory compliance.

Centricity Clinical Archive equipped with Media Manager mobile application enables speedy acquisition and documentation of visible light images, videos and notes directly from mobile devices, helping reduce the documentation time per patient case, avoiding missed patient data and enhancing staff productivity. With a secure login, your clinical staff can easily capture, document, store, and share visible light images at every step of the patient’s care journey – allowing them to spend more time, where it matters most. Media Manager uses mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets to capture images in real time. Captured images along with relevant documentation are submitted to Centricity Clinical Archive as a cross enterprise document sharing (XDS) document. This information is updated as part of the patient record and is made available through the EMR or Centricity Universal Viewer Zero Footprint Viewer (ZFP).

Supported workflowsMedia Manager supports the following care area workflows:

• Emergency department assessments

• Skin/wound care

• Pressure ulcers

• Skin donor assessment

• Burn assessment

• Plastic surgery

In addition, Media Manager also supports ad-hoc image capture and documentation of information that needs to be appended to the patient record.
