Healthcare information provider Wolters Kluwer Health (WK Health), US, has announced that Southern Ohio Medical Center has selected ProVation Order Sets, powered by UpToDate Decision Support, to automate the creation, deployment and maintenance of order sets. Located in Portsmouth, Ohio, the 222-bed Southern Ohio Medical Center provides emergency and surgical care, as well as a wide range of other inpatient and outpatient services.
ProVation Order Sets, powered by UpToDate Decision Support, claims to be an easily customisable order set authoring and management solution that provides flexible integration into clinical processes to streamline the delivery of standardised care for improved patient safety, outcomes, clinician performance and regulatory compliance. Built upon ProVation Medical's clinician-designed technology platform, one of ProVation Order Sets' primary values is the continuous updates to clinical content and medical evidence, including direct links to UpToDate, the resource of choice for more than 360,000 clinicians.
Central to this capability is the One Click Updates tool, which allows hospitals to easily and automatically update order sets to keep current with the latest medical evidence. Enabled by a unique, structured approach to data management, One Click Updates alerts end users to evidence that may trigger the need to modify particular order sets. It then enables users to review recommended updates and apply them in a single step across multiple order sets.
UpToDate covers over 7,700 topics in 15 medical specialties and includes more than 80,000 pages of text and graphics, as well as links to Medline abstracts, more than 260,000 references and a drug database. Content is continuously reviewed and updated by physician editors and authors.
In addition to integrated links to UpToDate and other trusted sources of medical evidence, ProVation Order Sets offer the flexibility to link additional clinical resources based upon client needs and preferences. Further, to help facilities achieve the highest possible degree of automation, ProVation Order Sets feature vendor-neutral mapping and export capabilities that allow for flexible integration into any facility or vendor EMR or CPOE system.
