[Good morning, my name is Dr. Graham Hughes]
[I'm Product Marketing Leader for Healthcare Information Technology within the GE]
[Healthcare Division, and today we're announcing an exiciting]
[breakthrough, real-time, decision-support solution]
[for doctors and hospitals--which is part of GE's ]
[Healthymagination commitment.]
[The new solution puts real-time clinical data]
[and treatment options directly in doctor's]
[hands at the point of care. ]
[This breakthrough technology was developed]
[in collaboration with Intermountain Health Care and ]
[Mayo Clinic leveraging Intermountain's 3 decades of clinical]
[information into the hands of ]
[doctors, speeding the time for ]
[clinical research to become available]
[to them at the point of care. ]
[Today, what I'm going to do is to show you a very brief demonstration of that technology.]
[What you'll notice as I look at the ]
[application that I've logged into, ]
[I have a list of patients in front of me.]
[First of all, as a doctor about to round, ]
[I'm looking at all the patients that I'm going to be rounding on today. ]
[What you'll notice, as well, on this]
[list is that there's also an area that I call my ]
[tray, which is a list of other patients that I may choose to access.]
[In this case, I'm looking at my patients ]
[I'm about to round on today, but I also have a list of my ]
[cardiac patients and I will show you that in a minute. ]
[Up at the top of the screen, I have a little area called the scoreboard]
[I'd like to draw your attention to, which shows me alerts and]
[notifications and reminders--which is any variance from the ]
[treatment patterns that we have set as best practices.]
[I'm being notified or alerted to up there]
[within that scoreboard area. ]
[Within this multi-patient view of my patients ]
[I'm about to round on, notice, as we look for patient]
[Herman Hope, is I have trends and patterns]
[that I can see, both in vital signs, ]
[as well as lab tests, imaging, and so forth.]
[If I click or hover in any particular area I can ]
[click and look at details of ]
[other x-rays or details of lab results.]
[And you'll notice here that I already am reading, being identified, that]
[one of my patients has an out-of-range lab test that I need to ]
[pay attention to immediately. ]
[Let me click over quickly to my cardiac patients. ]
[As I do that, what I have is a list that is being refreshed]
[in real-time showing all of my cardiac patients]
[who've been admitted with chest pain.]
[And what I'm tracking here are standards of care]
[that are provided at a national level]
[for the best practices for treating patients]
[with acute coronary syndrome or ]
[chest pain and suspected myocardial infarctional heart attack. ]
[What you'll notice in this case is ]
[that I have a slightly different view, but I have timers]
[tracking the patients time to treatment, ]
[so are they getting the right medications on admission?]
[Which medications have they had and how quickly?]
[Do I have my appropriate cardiac markers?]
[Have I had the right investigations, ]
[patients getting the right medications on discharge?]
[As I click through on James Small, ]
[what I get is an expanded window that we call the inspector. ]
[And here, I get a number of insights,]
[which are being generated from]
[evaluation of the patient data against]
[the guidelines imbedded within the system. ]
[So not only do I get recommendations as to certain types of ]
[treatment patterns that are available, but I also]
[get access to click through into the protocols themselves. ]
[I can click through and look at]
[the particular recommendations that I have within the order]
[sets or the care process models that are]
[And in summary, what lies in the background here]
[is advanced decision support capability that has been developed]
[over the past few years, and the ]
[end result is that patients everywhere will benefit]
[from current treatment options. ]
[Prior to this development, the flow of information from bench ]
[to bedside through traditional means of medical journal publication, ]
[continuing education classes, and symposium, you could take upwards ]
[of 17 years, and now we're making this]
[available to the point of care in real-time. ]
