Overview

Patient Tracking

Efficient Patient Tracking

Data is downloaded each day from your appointment system. As each patient moves through the various stages staff record their progress with a click, which logs the time and event. Thus Labyrinth tracks patient pathways from arrival on the ward, through the labs and on to discharge allowing clinical staff to concentrate on clinical work instead of simply chasing information.

Easy Communication

Labyrinth is deigned to assist staff in busy medical departments where the numbers of patients/wards/labs are to big and/or are too geographically remote to sucessfully continue with communication on paper by hand. “The co-ordinator role used to be really stressful, now they can sit down, look at the screen and decide the best course of action. It's well worth it. I don’t want to go back to paper co-ordination, it’s a much more efficient way of working.”
Deputy Nursing Manager, Guy's St Thomas'

Simultaneous View

All of the labs daily patients can be seen simultaneously on one screen. Therefore each lab can view the complete day's list on screen.

Flexible Views

One of the great features of labyrinth is that staff can view the data from many different perspectives. They can select by patients, procedures, admission types, and from both the lab or ward perspective. This allows staff to organise and view all the information which is relevant to their own particular role.

Real Time Data Capture

Information on patient progress is updated in real time throughout the day. All staff can immediately see where a patient is at a given time.

Visual Prompting of Procedures

If a task has not been performed, Labyrinth's dashboard screen will act as a visible prompt.

Reporting

Monitors Lab Performance for Planning and Audit Purposes

As well as recording events, Labyrinth analyses data and generates reports, producing graphs and raw data for planning and audit purposes. It notes the causes of delays, cancellations and other inefficiencies. This gives you an overall view of how the labs are working and where the hold ups are.

Improves Efficiency

The information generated will allow you to evaluate your service provision promoting greater efficiency. Lab utilisation can be monitored, problems identified and different approaches can be tried and tested. “The information is there whenever you need it, consequently more can be done with it.” Cardiac Radiology Manager, Guy's St Thomas'

Recording Radiation Dosage

Labyrinth records radiation dosage entered by the radiographer and collates it in the reporting module. This makes it easier to both monitor current practice and agree Local Dose Reference Levels complying with Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations. It used to take a member of the radiology team two weeks every three months to collate this data by hand. Patients on research trials can be clearly identified and their dosages can be audited seperately.
