Skyscape and PatientKeeper Integrate
From Ectopic Brain:
Skyscape and PatientKeeper to Integrate Skyscape and PatientKeeper recently announced the integration of Skyscape's more than 225 medical and nursing references with PatientKeeper's platform - which will now allow medical professionals to check drug interaction and treatment guidelines based on actual patient records. This will further streamline patient care and reduce the risk of medical errors. With the PatientKeeper Reference Library, healthcare professionals can access medical references in the context of a specific patient's relevant data and return selected entries back into PatientKeeper. For example, a physician can search drug databases directly from a patient's active medication list, choose an appropriate discharge medication, and return the selection back to an electronic prescription pad - all on the PatientKeeper Platform. In addition, the physician may choose to look up a table of differential diagnoses in one of the many popular Skyscape-powered references (such as Griffith's Five-Minute Clinical Consult) and add it to a patient's active problem list.
Sounds good to me. Now if I could really use PatientKeeper on a daily basis it would be great. I still find it difficult to use my PDA to keep track of patients, it is just too much data to enter...
