MetaVision for Perioperative Care: Workflow support
Video Form
The MetaVision Anesthesia Information Management System (AIMS) supports every step of your clinical workflow:
Documenting induction
MetaVision streamlines induction documentation and lets you focus on the clinical process and patient care. From the start of anesthesia, MetaVision automatically captures monitor and other device data every minute, populating the patient anesthesia record. Touchscreen displays and a time stamping functionality let you quickly indicate the exact induction time. You can also retrospectively document the induction and intubation details.
Reviewing patient condition
MetaVision’s automatic data capture creates a comprehensive case summary resulting in an anesthesia record, populated with actionable information. Special data views can be created to reflect the needs of specific surgical disciplines and types of cases. You can zoom in on specific points in time for more detail.
Documenting medications & events
A touch screen and a dynamic tool bar help you enter medication sets with a single touch. Fluids and medications you administer, such as blood products and antibiotic prophylaxis, are displayed on the screen for review. Administration is documented with a single touch or registered by scanning bar-coded syringes.
Surgical events are registered by simply touching the screen at the time of occurrence. In fact, in just five touches you should be able to record the complete chronological sequence of events, thus rapidly documenting short cases, which makes for quick turnover. After you care for the patient, follow-up treatment plans can be selected from pre-defined order sets (such as post thoracic order set).
Planning transfer to Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)
MetaVision also enables post-op planning. Running infusions can be reviewed and documented while pre-defined sets of recovery orders can be easily recorded in one click. The system automatically cross checks any order against registered allergies and sensitivities. It can also access pharmacy safety guidelines and supports co-signature requirements for additional supervision of safety and costs. Meanwhile, treatment protocols can be registered via the system for reference in the PACU. Reminders for the user to enter all required documentation help create a complete record and ensure a seamless transfer to post-op.
Generating a complete anesthesia record
MetaVision generates a complete and accurate anesthesia record populated with all data associated with the course of anesthesia. This ensures a smooth hand-off and means that all billable events are registered.
