CapsuleTech to automate patient data at Trinity’s hospitals

Trinity Health will be using Capsule’s DataCaptor Connectivity Suite to automate the capture of patient data from bedside devices, including GE Monitors from the Unity network. DataCaptor collects the data, converts it into HL7 format and integrates it into the hospitals’s Cerner Millenium Clinical Information System (CIS). Trinity Health will be implementing DataCaptor at Battle Creek Health System for Cerner’s SurgiNet OR solution and at Holy Cross Hospital for Cerner’s INet ICU solution.

The DataCaptor Connectivity Suite is said to feature one of the largest device interface libraries in the world with over 370 different types of medical devices, such as patient monitors, ventilators and infusion pumps, supported.

Arnaud Houette, CEO of CapsuleTech: “Trinity Health’s commitment to automating patient data collection and improving patient care will make them a terrific partner for us, and we are looking forward to rolling out our DataCaptor solution to their network of hospitals across the country in the coming months.”
