Clinical Surveillance System

Hospira, Inc
Hospira releases TheraDoc version 4.5, an enhanced clinical surveillance system designed to support hospital antimicrobial stewardship efforts. The new version further automates the monitoring and reporting of infections and antibiotic use, and features a new electronic medication administration record (eMAR) interface that allows hospitals to monitor antimicrobial utilization using days of therapy or defined daily dose, and export this data to the NHSN. The eMAR interface also helps infection preventionists improve patient care by simplifying the process of isolation management. Other upgrades include an antimicrobial usage dashboard and alerts, and NHSN definitions designed to increase the efficiency and accuracy of NHSN reporting.
