Major announcements from iSOFT at Healthcare Computing

A modern, scalable system proven at 400 laboratories across Europe and developed by iSOFT, i.Laboratory Enterprise is a major advance in laboratory systems. It serves traditional needs but also uses leading-edge database design for easier adoption of emerging and evolving standards and technologies, such as SNOMED CT.  i.Laboratory Enterprise supports flexible workflows to improve efficiency and supports ever-changing demands for clinical safety and laboratory accreditation. It is highly scalable to meet specific laboratory requirements and operates across multiple sites. i.Laboratory Enterprise currently runs some of the largest distributed, integrated laboratory services in Europe.

A key feature is the ability to configure the software to support specific organisational processes so improving both workflow efficiency and staff utilisation. Its powerful rules base allows the user to control the transfer of specimens from requesting through to reporting. A wide range of processes can be automated including results validation, queue allocation, cascade requesting, report formatting and electronic results notification. The configuration can be modified easily to reflect user experience or changes in working practices.

LORENZO Clinicals gives doctors ready access to up-to-date patient notes, to prescribe drugs, order tests and access results and knowledge bases in real-time, thereby reducing adverse drug events, dosage mistakes, lost and mis-prescribed medications and litigation. iSOFT is showing the version developed for international markets and installed at hospitals in Germany and the Netherlands.

iSOFT’s RadCentre radiology information system now features speech recognition so dictations appear instantly as screen text, which speeds the time to produce critical radiology reports and share patient diagnoses.

Using Intelligent Speech Interpretation technology from Philips, the solution produces highly accurate radiology reports with a minimum of human intervention for improved workflows, a faster turnaround of reports and reduced waiting times.

iSOFT’s strategic primary care solution for England, Synergy is an advanced system providing general practices with information to support their patient-related clinical and administrative processes. Synergy supports GP Systems of Choice, CAP GP compliance, GMS contract reporting, monitoring and QMAS submission and the National Compliance programmes of England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
