Profusion neXus LMS™

At the heart of ProFusion neXus is a set of advanced features that operate in network environments of any size. The ProFusion neXus services control and manage access to data in the laboratory and take charge of a number of important administrative tasks including:

• Access to any patient’s record from any authorized workstation
• Tracking and managing the location and current status of all diagnostic studies in the system
• Security services to control access to data
• Centralized access to all information related to a patient including demographics, study data, reports and related documents
• Real time updates of any change in patient or study status
• Entry of an extensive list of details related to patient care
• Management of network disk storage to ensure space availability for data collection
• Supporting audit trails for security needs
• Automatic data archiving management
• Integrated HL7 support for seamless communication with your facility EMR.

Profusion neXus LMS centralizes all operations in
one Control Center to maximize your laboratory
efficiency. Administrative tasks such as managing
free hard drive space on recording computers
and study archiving activities are handled
automatically, reducing errors and freeing up
valuable staff time.

The “Patient-Centric” workflow design begins
with the creation of a patient record including all
patient information. The patient record becomes
the central repository for all future information
related to that patient – from consultations,
diagnostic studies, questionnaires, photos and
correspondence to staff notes.

Study details available include:

• Pre-study diagnosis and medications
• Staff members involved with the patient’s study
• Final diagnosis and treatment plan.

A significant advantage of Profusion neXus LMS is the ability to track the active status of all studies. Your staff can quickly find studies that are ready for scoring or have had final reports generated. Built-in search tools and filters make the process simple and fast.

• Create custom search criteria to find studies
• Pull specific data from the selected studies
• Group copy or process the selected studies

Profusion neXus LMS addresses the need to control access to protected health information without compromising the function of your laboratory.

Advanced features include:

• Support for individual password controlled logons
• Automatic log off
• Secure access by group membership with
  roles-based access rights
• Audit trails.

NeXus Remote provides secure, managed, thin-client based access via the Internet to patient data and studies for review, scoring and report generation. A range of Profusion and neXus applications can integrate with neXus Remote to provide access to centralized data acquisition, analysis and report generation capabilities.

• Intuitive searching for available appointment times
• Schedule staff availability and periods of leave
• The waiting list manager allows you to quickly
  reschedule appointments
• Useful for both consultation and lab environments.

Nexus HL7 Interface provides:

• Seamless integration to any HL7 compliant hospital information system
• Bi-directional exchange of electronic medical records
• Receive patient admission, scheduling and orders messages
• Send patient result messages to publish reports into the hospital information system.

Profusion neXus LMS stores all information regarding the number, location and available space on all registered storage devices on the network.

Within Profusion neXus LMS, as a record is marked closed, the database automatically archives the record to an available writeable media with the appropriate level of free space.
The copy is automatically verified and Profusion neXus LMS prompts the user to print the labels for the media and storage case. The storage case label provides a list of patient studies and a unique identifying number.
It’s automatic and just that simple!

Alternatively, utilize the convenience of Network Attached Storage (NAS / SAN) devices, including tape backup, for all your data storage.

All of the features detailed will work in any network environment, even across wide area networks (WANs).
Profusion neXus LMS is uniquely qualified to manage large, multi-site laboratory networks where simple and centralized data access is crucial.

NeXus provides for both distributed and/or centralized storage of data and reports. Allowing the user to tailor each installation to their particular needs. To provide the ultimate in data security, Compumedics can install computer systems utilizing mirrored hard drives or external backup systems. If desired, acquired studies can automatically be pushed to a Datastore on the neXus Server.
