MISSION VIEJO, Calif. – At this year’s Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) annual conference in Orlando, Florida, the Chief Medical Informatics Officer of Albert Einstein Healthcare Network, L. Albert Villarin MD, FACEP, will be presenting a lecture on the role for automatic patient and asset tracking systems to impact patient flow within a hospital emergency department. The lecture, titled Managing Patient Flow Better at the Front Door - Your ED!, will share insights from Dr. Villarin’s use of automatic tracking software which captures the real time location of patients, medical staff and assets through a wireless sensory network. Dr. Villarin’s lecture will be held on Monday, February 25th at 10 am in Room 230-B of the Orange County Convention Center.

Dr. Villarin, in his joint role as Director of Medical Informatics in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Albert Einstein Medical Center (AEMC) in Philadelphia, oversaw the implementation and ongoing utilization of the automatic tracking system at this 509 bed facility’s emergency department. A level 1 trauma center, the 48 bed AEMC emergency department treated over 76,000 patient visits in 2007. AEMC is one of the first hospitals in the nation to implement an automatic patient and asset tracking system in an emergency department. Originally installed in 2003, the tracking system has tracked over a quarter of a million emergency visits to date and has helped the department to improve patient flow and operational efficiencies as patient volumes have continued to increase.

The tracking software, Amelior EDTracker(R) by Patient Care Technology Systems, was implemented with an infrared based real time locating system from Versus Technology, Inc. Wireless personnel and asset tags identify their real time location to an infrared-based sensory network. Amelior EDTracker receives the real-time location information and applies emergency department workflow process rules to recognize patient care milestones as they occur throughout a patient’s encounter. Together with interfaces to laboratory and radiology department systems, the software helps caregivers to track the status of their patients without having to manually update information. An integrated reporting module provides extensive historical information on patient flow for further optimization of department efficiency.
