Development of an Integrated Cardiology Data Management and Remote Monitoring Platform

The client requires a unified system to streamline management of ECG and cardiac monitoring data, improve report creation and access, ensure compliance with data protection regulations, and facilitate rapid clinical decision-making. The existing processes are fragmented, slow, and hinder patient-centered care, necessitating an integrated digital solution to enhance operational efficiency and diagnostic accuracy.

A mid to large-sized healthcare institution specializing in cardiology and remote cardiac monitoring, seeking a comprehensive platform to enhance data management, patient care, and diagnostic efficiency.

• Develop a secure, cloud-based portal for comprehensive management of cardiac monitor data and patient reports.
• Enable quick and intuitive registration, data entry, and report creation processes to streamline clinical workflows.
• Implement role-based access control to safeguard sensitive health information.
• Facilitate real-time notifications for critical events, data availability, and report readiness to improve response times.
• Integrate with external systems such as EMR/EHR via APIs for seamless data exchange.
• Provide online report editing and customization capabilities to support clinical review and documentation.
• Ensure compliance with GDPR and HIPAA standards for data security and privacy.

• Patient registration module with digitized and simplified data entry processes.
• ECG and cardiac monitor data import and visualization tools.
• Automated notification system for critical events, data loading status, and report readiness.
• Online report editing and templates for flexible clinical documentation.
• Role-based access control to restrict data visibility based on user roles.
• Secure data storage on cloud infrastructure compliant with GDPR and HIPAA.
• API-based integration capabilities for external systems such as EMR and patient diaries.

• EMR/EHR systems for seamless patient data exchange
• External cardiac monitor APIs for data import
• Notification services for automated alerts

• System must support concurrent access by multiple users with role-based restrictions.
• Data storage and transmission must be encrypted to meet GDPR and HIPAA standards.
• System should respond to user requests within 2 seconds under normal load.
• Platform should ensure high availability with 99.9% uptime.
• Scalability to handle increasing patient data volume and user base.

The new platform is expected to significantly improve clinical workflow efficiency by enabling rapid data entry and report access, enhance diagnostic accuracy with detailed and editable reports, reduce report turnaround time, and ensure data security and regulatory compliance. Quantitatively, it aims to support faster diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and improve patient care quality in the cardiology department.
