Clinical Surveillance Tool Upgrade

Pharmacy OneSource, part of Wolters Kluwer

Pharmacy OneSource announces several new improvements to Sentri7, its Web-based, enterprise-wide electronic surveillance, documentation, and reporting application. Infection prevention teams now have access to standard National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) reporting forms for healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) within Sentri7. Relevant data automatically populates the form from the patient profile and the reports can be exported to facilitate entry into the NHSN database. Rules can now be written against surgery schedules, allowing infection preventionists to see when prophylactic antibiotics have not been properly discontinued within 24 hours following surgery. This helps ensure compliance with Core Measures related to the Surgical Care Improvement Project (specifically SCIP 3).
