Philips Launches Analytics Platform at HIMSS 2022
At HIMSS 2022, Royal Philips launched Philips Enterprise Performance Analytics –Performance Bridge, part of the HealthSuite Interoperability cloud-enabled Health IT platform. The new enterprise solution provides operational insights and deep analytics beyond radiology to the cardiology department to enhance efficiencies and help improve effectiveness at the point of care. Both innovations are part of Philips’ Data Management and Interoperability Solutions portfolio, an integrated, scalable suite of innovative technology, analytics and professional services, designed to support healthcare providers to continuously improve performance.
“Building on our deep expertise in medical imaging and insights in enterprise informatics, this latest expansion of our Data Management and Interoperability Solutions portfolio will help drive sustainable change across imaging departments with enhanced efficiency and improved outcomes for patients and staff,” said Kees Wesdorp, Chief Business Leader of Precision Diagnosis at Philips. “At HIMSS, we will showcase a highly-customizable set of data-driven solutions, delivering continuous improvement to meet clinical and business performance metrics with real-time insights.”
At HIMSS, Philips will present how the company’s new Data Management and Interoperability Solutions portfolio is designed to enhance care planning and coordination with clinical and operational analytics to help improve workflow efficiency, patient and staff satisfaction and outcomes. Also at HIMSS, Philips will spotlight how HealthSuite Interoperability connects third-party systems and enables seamless data workflows to streamline efficiency.
The platform will support all relevant data types and formats including DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) images, genomics, pathology, laboratory data, HL7 (Health Level Seven International) standards, formats and definitions for exchanging and developing electronic health records messages, and FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standards. HealthSuite Interoperability will also support all major Electronic Medical Records
(EMRs) vendors. Its clinical data repository also offers customers the ability to store and manage granular data, and can be used to create value driving solutions like health image exchanges.
Philips Enterprise Performance Analytics –Performance Bridge – gives healthcare professionals access to near real-time data on departmental performance through an easy-to-use interactive dashboard. Its operational insights have driven performance improvements in multiple health systems including Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, where 100% of staff surveyed stated the Performance Bridge Patient Flow applications saves time in their workday and improves teamwork and communication, according to Philips. Additionally, the company says that Kootenai Health in Idaho has leveraged the near real-time insights of Performance Bridge to improve their Cath Lab operations. Within 3 years, they have documented an increase in radial access rates associated with fewer complications, including major bleeding and mortality, from 9% to 42%, while improving patient comfort and shortening recovery times, according to Philips’ press release.
