Health Benefits from Spaulding webECG Management Solution Announced


The health benefits of the cloud-based Spaulding webECG Management Solution were recently highlighted by the company at a conference in Texas.

The Spaulding webECG provides quick assessment of emerging cardiovascular problems, the company said. It also has open-systems architecture and interfaces with Electronic Health Records (EHR).

“The Spaulding webECG’s 12-lead ECG application allows rapid assessment of emergent cardiovascular problems, most critically, ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI),” Gary Close, senior vice president and general manager of medical products for Spaulding Clinical, said in a statement. “To save heart muscle and reduce death or disability, STEMIs must be diagnosed quickly and intervention immediate.”

He added that mobile devices like the Spaulding webECG can be used anywhere for an ECG. The data can then be sent to rapid response teams, and patients can get more advanced diagnostics and life-saving treatments.

Spaulding Clinical Research is known for providing fast, high-quality results while keeping down costs. It operates a 105-bed clinical pharmacology unit with 96 12-lead ECG telemetry beds in West Bend, Wis.

Spaulding Biometrics also provides biostatistics, data management and medical writing services. In addition, Spaulding Clinical provides project management, cardiologist ECG over-read and equipment provisioning, including the Spaulding webECGTM diagnostic 12-lead ECG Management Solution with the purpose-built Spaulding Model 1000iQ Electrocardiograph. Spaulding Clinical Research is providing needed change in the clinical research and medical device sectors.

For example, HealthTechZone reported recently that Spaulding Clinical Research has partnered with Verified Clinical Trials.  Both companies want to see improved research volunteer safety and complete data integrity in clinical trials.

"A significant number of research volunteers are attempting to dual enroll in clinical trials or are not waiting for the appropriate washout period. With our focus on delivering high-quality data to our study sponsors, we chose Verified Clinical Trials registry as a partner because of their extensive North American network and their scalability," said Cassandra Erato, director of clinical operations at Spaulding Clinical Research, as quoted by HealthTechZone.
