Siemens and SIS partner for perioperative workflow
Siemens Healthcare has partnered with Surgical Information Systems (SIS) to expand the reach of the Siemens health information system portfolio (including Soarian, INVISION and MedSeries4) into the perioperative environment, including the SIS Anesthesia platform.
With this agreement, Siemens and Alpharetta, Ga.-based SIS, a provider of perioperative software technology, will address customers’ needs for managing perioperative workflow from pre-admission to discharge. Additionally, Siemens will leverage this partnership to supplement its portfolio with technology for anesthesia information management systems.
The platform will enable bi-directional sharing of pre-, intra- and post-operative procedure assessments, an electronic anesthesia record, forms and data between Soarian and SIS. Operating room data can be extracted from the SIS OR technology, and measured and reported in Siemens systems, to support enterprise reporting requirements such as meaningful use criteria. Moreover, continuum of care data will be made available through SIS analytics to foster departmental initiatives including the Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP), anesthesia reporting and overall clinical, financial and operational initiatives, according to Erlangen, Germany-based Siemens.
