Acquiring and Viewing Data Collected by Medical Equipment

On the Integrated Equipment Module (IEM), you can acquire and view data collected by medical diagnostic equipment manufactured by Midmark Diagnostics, Hillrom™ Welch Allyn® , Hillrom™ HeartCentrix® (former Cardiac Science), and General Electric.

Note: The diagnostic cardiology product line that was originally manufactured byCardiac Science®, was later sold to Mortara Instrument, then Welch Allyn® , then Hillrom™ . This product line includes theBurdick™andQuinton™brands. In this guide, these devices are referred to as " Hillrom™ HeartCentrix® (former Cardiac Science)" devices.

When you perform a test, such as an ECG, on a patient using an interfaced medical equipment, the IEM acquires data from the device and can generate a PDF report that can be viewed in NextGen® Enterprise EHR, sent to NextGen® PxP Portal, and viewed in NextGen® Mobile. You can generate PDF reports only on Midmark, Hillrom™ Welch Allyn® , and Hillrom™ HeartCentrix® (former Cardiac Science) devices.

Although the IEM software interface integration is performed by NextGen Healthcare Support, NextGen Healthcare is not responsible for installing, maintaining, or supporting medical equipment or software provided by equipment manufacturers mentioned in this document.

CAUTION:

Due to potential discrepancies in image quality,NextGen Healthcarerecommends that you do not use images that have been scanned or imported to the system using image acquisition methods (such as File Import, Directory Import, Scanner, or Scan Template) for diagnostic purposes.
