Hanover Hospital chooses iMDsoft's MetaVision as Anesthesia Information Management System

iMDsoft^® announced that Hanover Hospital in Pennsylvania has chosen MetaVision^® as the Anesthesia Information Management System (AIMS) for all of their operating rooms, to be implemented alongside their MEDITECH^® electronic health record system. iMDsoft offers strong integration capabilities, opening options for organizations that want a specialized system for their high acuity environments. When evaluating potential systems, the hospital was impressed with MetaVision's proven track record of successful implementations in other MEDITECH organizations in the US.

MetaVision builds on a decade of experience worldwide and supports the entire perioperative workflow. It generates a complete, accurate, billable anesthesia record, effortlessly capturing patient data, clinical events and clinician actions. The system incorporates advanced clinical decision support, which assists the anesthesiologist in making the best decision possible for the patient throughout the operative procedure.

"We selected this new system because it is a specialized form of an EMR (electronic medical record) that provides the ability to accurately and reliably record intraoperative patient information, including vital signs and events, allowing the anesthesiologist to focus on the patient rather than charting," says Stuart Maschke, M.D., Chair, Department of Anesthesia, Hanover Hospital.

"Lack of compliance with clinical and administrative protocols can impact both patient care and an organization's bottom line," says Mike Myers, CEO of iMDsoft. "More and more organizations are choosing MetaVision alongside hospital-wide electronic health records like MEDITECH to meet, track and report on their quality indicators. We feel confident that Hanover Hospital will quickly realize the benefits of our best-of-breed AIMS."
