EMR Connect is a flexible solution that seamlessly integrates compatible patient monitoring devices into your EMR (Electronic Medical Record) system.

How EMR Connect works

A scalable solution for the operating room (OR), post anesthesia care unit (PACU) and intensive care unit (ICU)

Lack of connectivity for patient monitors may lead to:

  • Increased clinician workload
    ~5-6 mins to complete a spot check
  • Increased opportunity for error
    up to 13% error rate with manual entry into EMR5,6
  • Delayed entry of data into EMR
    Wide variation in time of vital signs to data entry (2 mins to 6 hours)3
