Anesthesia Manager

Creating a paperless anesthesia record

Picis Anesthesia Manager is an anesthesia information management system (AIMS) that effectively helps anesthesia care providers manage the large volumes of important data created in the operating room through information collection and clinical documentation during surgery. The easy-to-use Anesthesia Manager interface assembles key data within view for a complete overview of a patient's status, while providing efficient information management of the anesthesia care process. By automating the intraoperative and postoperative recovery anesthesia documentation, Anesthesia Manager provides a more complete, accurate and legible record that enhances accountability and saves both time and money.

Picis Anesthesia Manager provides:

  •  
Accurate intraoperative anesthesia record – Automatically documents important patient data from anesthesia machines, ventilators and monitors, hospital information systems, laboratory systems and other systems, helping clinicians to increase clinical care of the patient and enhancing accountability
  •  
Medication Interaction Checking – Provides immediate, intuitive and useful display of potential interactions with the patient's allergies and current medications, both when the anesthesiologist first initiates the patient's chart as well as during the case as medications are administered
  •  
Content Library – Provides a comprehensive set of recommended documentation practices, taking the guesswork out of interpreting regulations that apply to surgical services
  •  
Record patient information easily and precisely – Collects, manages and stores all information required for the clinician to evaluate the patient's condition, manage the anesthesia process and generate the legal patient record, saving clinicians time, increasing accuracy of the anesthetic record and reducing the likelihood of medical errors
  •  
Case compliance documentation – Ensures that patient records are complete and include all data necessary to meet anesthesia documentation standards, includes summary view to help clinicians easily complete their documentation to meet billing requirements and produces standard professional fee billing output for transmission to 3rd party billing companies
  •  
Integrated nursing and anesthesia documentation – Easily shares intraoperative nursing documentation, making the flow of information seamless and providing consistent and available documentation wherever and whenever it is needed
  •  
Contiguous data throughout the perioperative environment – Enables clinicians to chart and manage a patient's progress to the post anesthesia care unit (PACU), closing the loop and improving communication and documentation across all care environments
  •  
Quality reporting and compliance – Provides a Quality Reporting Portal to automatically collect data and create reports of quality measures, allowing quality auditors and other hospital staff to merge Picis data with data from other departments into a hospital-wide quality reporting system, as well as demonstrate compliance with meaningful use and other regulatory reporting requirements to optimize hospital reimbursements
