Automate Infant Jaundice Charting: A New Standard in Neonatal Care
Jaundice affects 3 out of 5 babies and 4 out of 5 babies born before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Despite its prevalence, many hospitals still rely on manual processes for charting bilirubin levels. These outdated methods lead to inefficiencies and introduce potential clinical risks.
At Milton Keynes University Hospital (MKUH), this challenge has been tackled head-on. By implementing InicioPages’ hyperbilirubinemia MPage, the hospital has transformed its approach to managing infant jaundice, setting a new benchmark for neonatal care.
Key Outcomes of Automation at MKUH
MKUH’s adoption of the hyperbilirubinemia MPage has delivered remarkable results:
- 100% Staff Adoption in Three Days: The intuitive design ensured quick and seamless onboarding for all clinical staff.
- Fully Automated Charting: Bilirubin levels are now immediately and automatically graphed, eliminating manual entry.
- Integration with Electronic Patient Records: Data flows directly into the Oracle Cerner EHR system, removing the need for paper charts.
- Reduced Administrative Burden: Clinical teams can now focus more on patient care rather than administrative tasks.
Benefits of Automating Infant Jaundice Charting
Enhanced Patient Safety
By removing manual processes, the risk of human error is significantly reduced. Critical information is always up-to-date and accessible to the right people at the right time.
Improved Efficiency
Automating workflows means:
- Faster charting and reporting.
- Real-time access to data, enabling quicker clinical decisions.
- Streamlined operations, reducing the time spent on documentation.
Better Use of Resources
Clinical staff can dedicate more time to patient care, improving the overall experience for both patients and their families. The elimination of paper charts also helps hospitals reduce costs and achieve sustainability goals.
Seamless Integration with Oracle Cerner EHR
The hyperbilirubinemia MPage integrates effortlessly into existing Oracle Cerner EHR systems, offering features like:
- Role-Based Customisation: Tailor forms and data views to the specific needs of different user roles.
- Real-Time Data Updates: Ensure all patient records are current and complete.
- Optimised User Experience: A streamlined interface that supports clinical workflows and enhances usability.
Setting a New Standard in Neonatal Care
MKUH’s successful implementation of InicioPages’ hyperbilirubinemia MPage demonstrates the transformative power of digital solutions in healthcare. By automating infant jaundice charting, they’ve not only improved operational efficiency but also elevated the quality of care for their youngest patients.
