STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced that Dallas-based CHRISTUS Health will install five of Elsevier’s online clinical decision support (CDS) solutions to meet the diverse and evolving clinical decision support needs of its physicians, nurses and pharmacists.
CHRISTUS opted for Elsevier’s comprehensive, interdisciplinary and integrated suite of CDS solutions for pharmacy, medicine and nursing. Among the selected solutions are Clinical Pharmacology, which delivers expert drug information; ToxED 2.0, which facilitates treatment of drug overdose emergencies; First Consult, which provides evidence-based answers for the point of care; MD Consult, which brings leading medical resources together in a single online service; and Mosby’s Nursing Consult, which helps nurses find answers to pressing clinical questions.
Elsevier CDS solutions will be installed in 25 Texas hospitals within CHRISTUS Health, which is composed of more than 40 hospitals, inpatient and long-term care facilities, as well as multiple clinics, physician offices and healthcare services. Other factors influencing CHRISTUS’ decision to adopt multiple Elsevier solutions included its need to consolidate resources, save on costs, integrate solutions and allow physicians, nurses and pharmacists to navigate effortlessly between CDS products.
