BOULDER, CO & TORONTO, ON , Feb. 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Connexall and VigiLanz, both named Category Leaders in the 2018 Best in KLAS awards, have teamed up to deliver time-sensitive information related to antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) to increase patient safety and improve outcomes at hospitals.
The VigiLanz AMS platform aggregates information from physician order entries, laboratory and pathology reports, and the EHR to provide continuous surveillance of patients. Connexall integrates with VigiLanz and the EHR to intelligently route data quickly and reliably to the assigned care team for the affected patient. This guides the care team to ensure safe and appropriate use of antibiotics.
“AMS has emerged as a central component of highly effective care quality and safety strategies, and success requires the ability to rapidly transform data into action,” said VigiLanz Chairman and CEO Dr. David Goldsteen, MD, MBA. “This partnership between VigiLanz and Connexall does just that, providing our customers with a robust AMS solution that leverages the power of two KLAS category leaders to drive improved patient outcomes.”
“Connexall is delighted to partner with VigiLanz to enhance antimicrobial stewardship programs for the benefit of patients,” stated David Tavares, GlobeStar/Connexall CEO. “Our intelligent routing capabilities ensure that the assigned care team is notified promptly and reliably to deliver the care the patients require.”
