Interventional Cardiology

HeartCare Plus's Interventional Cardiology is a complete information system covering all the stages of patient care for entire set of procedures that are performed in cathlab.

It comprehensively records information for the treatment cycle of the following procedures :
•  Cardiac Angiography
•  Angioplasty with multi-device protocols
•  Valvuloplasty
•  Pacemaker
•  Electrophysiology

It performs the following key tasks:
•  Recording patient information
•  Scheduling procedures
•  Creating post-procedure records
•  Generating bills
•  Ensuring quick referrals

Recording patient information
The module eliminates the need for manually entering patient data at every device involved in a procedure. The patient's demographic information is automatically filled in from the Hospital ADT. Then, all clinical systems work off the same patient data; there is no chance of errors like one patient's report or image being assigned to another patient.

Scheduling procedures
As soon as a procedure is scheduled, a message is sent to the haemodynamic and reporting system with the patient data and schedule information. A similar message is sent to the modality.

Creating post-procedure records
At the end of the procedure, a single patient/procedure record is created integrating:
•  the physician's findings and conclusions
•  images from the modality and
•  quantitative data from the haemodynamic system.

Patient data is stored in a secure database. Administration of access rights and compliance with HIPPA is easy.

Generating bills
CPT codes and ICD codes are automatically sent to the billing system. Inventory used during the procedure is sent to the inventory system. The automatic posting of procedure codes based on clinical captured ensures that no procedure goes unbilled.

Ensuring quick referrals
As soon as a procedure is completed, reports and images are exported to the EDR so that referring physicians can review without delay.
