Article Abstract

Enterprise electronic medical records (EMR) have largely become a standard since their use was mandated by The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. However, perfusion departments have adopted true perfusion EMRs at various rates. In our efforts to integrate with the institutions EMR while enjoying the benefits of an EMR designed specifically for perfusion practice, we developed a discrete data integration solution between Epic and the Spectrum Medical VIPER Perfusion EMR. This report describes our perfusion EMR selection criteria, design challenges, and documentation process.
