02 · Structured reporting
Comprehensive reports in minutes, in natural language.
With specialist terminology and natural language generation, the report is built from customisable text modules and selection menus, following a workflow shaped around the department's needs.
The terminology is built on a network of semantic data, which also helps to analyse clinical findings.
NEXUS / ADVANCED REPORTING integrates digital data from medical devices and other sources and inserts text proposals into the report automatically. According to the manufacturer, it speeds up documentation by up to 80%.
The report can draw on Wiki articles with medical information, the hospital's standard operating procedures and anatomical charts to specify location and size.
The result: higher quality in less time, in full compliance with the best practices set by quality assurance departments.
