Fast, Integrated Clinical Documentation

With Essentris Critical Care, clinicians automate their more repetitive tasks and complete them more quickly and effectively.

  • Faster, easier charting. Input, edit, or access vital signs, medications, intake and output readings, patient education materials, and much more. Simplify data capture with a variety of customer configured flowsheets and note templates.

  • Integrated, intelligent data access. Access, view, and record readings, orders, results, and other data from a limitless range of systems, from physiological monitors and pumps, to ADT and ancillary systems, to medical images to HL7 supported hospital systems.

  • Streamlined, structured workflow. Capture the encounter with speed and accuracy using interface features that prompt the user according to predetermined rules or knowledge bases.

  • Regulatory compliance. Document and control access to sensitive data to comply with HIPAA and other emerging standards.

Functional Capabilities

In addition to automation, Essentris Critical Care helps transform your processes, letting clinicians work in new and different ways to enhance care and improve workflow.

  • Integrated order entry. Effectively manage the entry, classification, screening, and review of medication and therapeutic orders to identify prior adverse reactions, potential interactions with other drugs or foods, and duplicate orders or therapies. Integrated with clinical documentation, Essentris automatically transfers orders to flowsheets for charting as appropriate.

  • EMAR.Completely automate and manage your medication delivery process with the Essentris electronic medication administration record, populated directly from the order entry system.

  • Timely clinical alerts. Configure Essentris Critical Care to trigger real-time patient status alerts, reminders, recommendations, and other messages based on your organization’s protocols and knowledge base.

  • Clinical calculations. Let the system automatically perform time-consuming calculations—such as fluid balance or severity scoring—based on the full range of available patient data.

  • Task list. Create, view, and print task lists based on all approved order information, for organizing patient care.

  • Plan of care. Individualize all plans of care to specific patient needs. Use the notes function to track expected outcomes. Tailor plans of care in multidisciplinary settings or within a specialty.

  • Reference capabilities. Access an online library for reference material or standard of care information. Apply either facility-specific or industry-wide standards.

Configurable Data Presentation

A highly configurable platform, Essentris Critical Care helps your organization use information more effectively to minimize errors, meet regulatory demands, follow a formulary, or implement clinical protocols.

  • Flowsheets. Quickly and easily enter common data types such as vital signs, medications, intake and output, within a variety of available flowsheet formats. Take advantage of CliniComp’s integrated software to populate the electronic medication administration record directly from the order entry application.

  • Notes. Create, edit, and navigate a range of types of clinical notes—including ADT records, progress notes, history and physicals, and more—for enhanced communication and collaboration.

  • Summary Screens. View comprehensive patient data—customized for specialized clinical disciplines—formatted in easy to read tables, graphs, or plots. This facilitates trending and analysis.

  • Trending. Visualize and graph critical values rather than working with tabular data.

  • Remote access. Use Essentris on the floors, at bedside, from the office, from home, or via mobile device—all simultaneously.

Enterprise-Wide Medical Record Access

Together, the components of Essentris Critical Care form a fully integrated, enterprise-wide medical record (EMR) system.

  • Longitudinal medical record. Monitor, submit to or edit a permanent patient record—as appropriate—including medications, procedures, physiologic monitor readings, progress notes, and other charted information.

  • Functional foundation. Establish a solid foundation for order entry, decision support, outcomes measurement, reporting, analysis, and other important functions.
