The CareView app\u2014developed by the Regenstrief Institute, IU Health and Indiana Health Information Exchange\u2014gathers data from the HIE on seven different medical conditions and displays it within the EHR for ED doctors.\u201cThere is an incredible amount of information available for most patients, but sifting through all of it to find the most crucial data can be very time consuming,\u201d says Titus Schleyer, a Regenstrief research scientist and professor of biomedical informatics at the IU School of Medicine. \u201cClinicians could spend three to five minutes searching for data in a patient\u2019s records. CareView cuts that time to less than 10 seconds, freeing up more time to interact with the patient.\u201d

The app, which leverages HL7\u2019s Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), connects to the Indiana Network for Patient Care\u2014the clinical data repository managed by the Indiana Health Information Exchange.\u201cBefore this app, providers had to leave the EHR and access the Indiana Network for Patient Care through a separate tool,\u201d says John Kansky, president and CEO of IHIE. \u201cThis eliminates the extra step. In addition, instead of sorting through every single health record, this app anticipates what the doctors are looking for and brings up only the most relevant information.\u201dSpecifically, CareView sorts through patient records for the following medical conditions\u2014chest pain, abdominal pain, headache, weakness and dizziness, back pain, pregnancy, heartbeat irregularities, and trouble breathing.For two years, the app has been in use in the ED at IU Health Methodist. More recently, it has been added to EDs at IU Health West, IU Health North and IU Health Saxony. During the next nine months, CareView will be implemented at the remaining EDs in the IU Health system.","saveContent":"A clinical decision support app, integrated into the electronic health record, enables emergency department physicians to sort through a patient\u2019s medical history for certain conditions in seconds.
