“LUMEDX’s Cardiac Transplant Module enhances workflow, promotes data quality, and simplifies processing of UNOS and CTRD Registry information,” explains Nancy Long, Director of Cardiac OR and Transplant, for Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute. “Data is entered once in the system and integrates with other data found across the CV service line, helping to eliminate redundant data entry and manual errors, while supporting clinical research and patient care. It also produces downloadable forms for UNOS and CTRD Registry. LUMEDX carefully listened to our needs and performed as a true partner in helping deliver a Cardiac Transplant solution robust enough to meet our demands for today and for the future.”
According to LUMEDX Director of Product Management Rhonda Staton, “Our comprehensive CV service line data collection tool for cardiac transplant substantially reduces the burden of meeting documentation requirements. Data is collected, stored, and accessed electronically in one place. Also, data that is entered once in the system can be reused over and over, providing multiple benefits to the cardiac transplant program and heart center.”
