IMPLEMENTING AHI SYSTEM
Designed for straightforward and secure implementation
- AHI System is a fully AWS cloud-hosted solution with options for bringing some information security components behind the hospital firewall as needed to meet hospital information security requirements.
- AHI System is currently on the HITRUST journey with certification anticipated in 2022.
Automated results are enabled by streaming ECG inputs
- AHI System relies solely on a single streaming ECG-II waveform
- No EHR inputs (or integration) required
- No manual blood pressure checks
- ECG vendor neutral – Leverage existing FDA-regulated bedside and telemetry ECG monitors, connected to the hospital’s network, with no special electrodes needed
- Extend coverage to general wards and emergency departments using FDA-regulated wearable ECG patch sensors
Fully-managed, hospital-dedicated cloud hosting
- Fully-managed, HIPAA-compliant, secure hospital-dedicated AWS installation for fast deployment, responsive browser-based interface, scalability, and easy maintenance.
- Robust information security controls are in place for secure handling of sensitive information.
Easy access using existing hospital systems
- Supports single sign-on (SSO) integration using robust OpenID Connect or SAML 2.0 protocols to enable consistent, seamless, and easy-to-use user authentication.
- AHI System is accessible to an unlimited number of clinical users via any modern internet browser on wall monitors, desktop or laptop computers, and mobile devices. Officially supported browsers include: Chrome, Edge, and Safari. Operating Systems include: Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS.
- Options are available for integrating with the hospital’s unified communications middleware to enable hospital-defined push notifications
Straightforward Implementation
- Plan the scope of the deployment and complete required contracts and information security reviews
- Establish the datapipe(s) between the hospital’s existing ECG monitors (bedside, telemetry, wearable) and AHI System.
- Prepare for clinical deployment by enabling single sign-on (SSO via OpenID Connect or SAML 2.0), configuring hospital-customized locations, integrating with the hospital’s unified communications middleware, and working with clinical leaders to ensure seamless workflow integration.
Originally developed by a group of healthcare organizations to streamline information security assessments in highly regulated industries like healthcare, HITRUST provides a comprehensive framework, prescriptive HIPAA-compliant controls, and third-party assessment to assure a robust information risk management and compliance program.
