• Horizon Cardiology Cath


Create a Truly Integrated Cath Lab

The Horizon CardiologyTM Cath solution is a patient-centric cardiac imaging and information management system for the cath lab. This integrated cath lab is a platform that allows your hospital to manage the complete periprocedural workflow of the cath environment.

Its unique single platform design supports workflows that eliminate redundant data entry and provide a complete CV EMR including images, reports, waveforms and integrated charge management. The design provides improved efficiency, reduces potential errors and improves charge capture for both technical and professional services.

The Horizon Cardiology integrated cath lab environment is comprised of the following modules:

  • Holding Area Charting - a module to document both the pre and post procedure holding area information. It captures the data at the point of care, including automatic vitals import from the bedside monitors.
  • Hemodynamic Monitoring – supporting patients of all ages for coronary and peripheral vascular procedures.
  • Nurse Charting Solution - allows for parallel procedural documentation of medications, saturations, notes and inventory usage, by the in-room staff.

Allow Real-Time Inclusion of Hemodynamic Data

Horizon CardiologyTM Hemo, Holding Area Charting, Nurse Charting Solution and Horizon Cardiology Cath share a single database, allowing for real-time inclusion of hemodynamic and other procedural data into the final procedure report. A broad array of proven interfaces integrates data from other hemodynamic monitoring systems.

Improve Workflow

With this solution, workflow improves at each juncture, from image and data acquisition to review, storage, reporting and scheduling. Versatile interfaces deliver integration with echocardiography, inventory, billing systems and other third-party hardware and information systems.

Support Industry Standards and Achieve HIPAA Compliance

Horizon Cardiology Cath supports industry standards, including DICOM, HL7 and the IHE initiative for integration with existing hardware and information systems. It contributes to hospital compliance with HIPAA regulations. Ultimately, Horizon Cardiology Cath simplifies workflow in the cath lab, improves productivity and enhances patient care.
