The Wave Medical drug data will be a component of the InterSystems TrakCare™ Web-based unified health information system that provides local drug information, dosing, drug interaction and drug-allergy alerts to authorized users.
“I am very pleased to partner with an industry EHR leader to help meet the needs of clinicians to maximize safety and efficiency,” says John Wagner, Wave Medical chairman. “We are committed to providing the highest quality drug information and support through this partnership, and this relationship will embed Wave Medical’s drug information and tools directly into the workflow of healthcare professionals.”
