iPhone AirStrip OB real time data access


AirStrip Technologies, a pioneer in mobile medical software applications, today announced that it has received FDA clearance to release the AirStrip OB™ application for use on the iPhone, and that the application is now available for download to qualified physicians at Apple's App Store.

AirStrip OB allows obstetricians to use their iPhones to remotely access virtual real-time and historical waveform data for both the mother and baby, including heart tracings and contraction patterns, as well as nursing notes and exam status. The data is sent directly from hospitals' labor and delivery units and can be accessed on the iPhone anytime, anywhere the doctor gets a cell-phone connection.

MEDENT Mobile iPhone application

As an EHR based physician of several years, I must recommend this to current Allscripts users.

I usually carry my 1 kilogram Fujitsu laptop with a Verizon 3G modem. This give me direct access to the office EHR.
The iPhone has made this unnecessary for the procedures listed below!

Give it a spin and let us know what you think. SV

iPhone Quest Care 360 app

This is a great free application.
It downloads labs lightening fast. Even those over a year old.
You can search for individual patients or look in your "Inbox".
Labs can even be viewed in the traditional "paper" format if you are nostalgic.

I'd like to be able to group like labs together in a table and a graph to follow trends.

If you use Quest labs, you must check it out. SV
