Milford, CT\u2014April 4, 2016<\/strong>\u2014Bernoulli, a leader in real-time connected healthcare, announced the successful go-live of medical device integration and connectivity at Pennsylvania-based St. Luke\u2019s University Health Network (SLUHN), a non-profit, regional, fully integrated, nationally recognized health system. The implementation took place as part of the current Epic installation for six of the health system\u2019s hospitals.<\/p>\n Utilizing their proven Nuvon VEGA architecture, Bernoulli coordinated, configured and implemented medical device connectivity with the critical care and anesthesia procedure areas of six St. Luke\u2019s hospitals. Supported departments include Gastroenterology, Catheterization Lab, Interventional Radiology, Operating Rooms, MRI department, Obstetrics, ICU, CCU and Step-Down ICU\u2014totaling more than 300 beds.<\/p>\n \u201cSt. Luke\u2019s is committed to the highest quality patient care and patient safety,\u201d said Kimberly Husky, Director of Integration and Interoperability at SLUHN. \u201cWe were able to integrate a number of different devices across different platforms and distribute the necessary drivers through one feed from Bernoulli.\u201d<\/p>\n As part of the implementation, Bernoulli deployed custom-built device drivers related to 12 device types, including GE patient monitors using both serial and network connectivity, Draeger and GE anesthesia machines, Covidien BIS monitors, Medrad MRI monitors, Edwards cardiac output monitors and Datascope Passport monitors.<\/p>\n For clinicians to make the best patient care decisions, hospitals must ensure that their EHRs and clinical decision systems contain meaningful and accurate data from the myriad that monitor patients. In addition to having ready access to this real-time, synchronized patient data, clinicians must also be able to access this information at all times and at any location. Bernoulli\u2019s VEGA solution offers the lowest overall cost of ownership, with a single system management controller that does not require expensive add-ons, easy plug-and-play connectivity, the highest level of patient data security and privacy, integrated clinical mobility and positive patient association.<\/p>\n \u201cSuccessfully implementing medical device connectivity and interoperability in all six of St. Luke\u2019s hospitals within a tight timeframe and during a major EHR build demonstrates Bernoulli\u2019s ability to deliver on its promise of accurate, real-time patient data, anytime, anywhere,\u201d said Jonathan Krieger, Bernoulli Director of Project Implementation. \u201cWe see St. Luke\u2019s as a long-term partner and are pleased that we can support them now and in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n Based in Milford, CT, Bernoulli is a leader in real-time connected healthcare, with more than 1,200 installed, operational systems. Bernoulli One\u2122, the company\u2019s flagship platform, is the market\u2019s only real-time, end-to-end, connected healthcare platform that combines comprehensive and vendor-agnostic medical device integration with powerful middleware, clinical surveillance, telemedicine\/virtual ICU, advanced alarm management, predictive analytics and robust distribution capabilities into ONE solution. Bernoulli One\u2122 empowers clinicians with tools to drive better outcomes, improve the patient experience, and enhance provider workflow. In December 2015, Cardiopulmonary Corp. merged with Nuvon, a leader in medical device connectivity and integration, creating Bernoulli.
