Hospitals must absolutely monitor hospital bacteria such as MRSA. When laboratory results indicate that a patient is infected, or when an infected patient is admitted, the hospital must begin the necessary processes as quickly as possible. This includes not only starting treatment for the patient, but also isolating the patient and taking appropriate measures for everyone who came into contact with him, to prevent the bacteria from spreading to the other patients. Transparent coordination and communication between laboratory, nursing and hospital hygienists is indispensable. Read more

Patients have a legal right to review their medical records and to request a copy of them. Forms are available from the hospital’s ombud or the hospital website. The patient simply returns the completed form to the hospital.
But how does the hospital make sure the application ends up with the right person? Does the application meet all requirements, and is it handled within the legal deadlines? What about the privacy of the patient and the GDPR regulations? And how can a hospital respond to the growing number of applications as patients become increasingly involved in their own care? At face value it should be a simple process, but it’s not that obvious…

Your laptop is breaking down and you urgently need a new one. The supply of insulin pumps is almost depleted. The medication refrigerator is due for replacement. Toys are needed for the Saint Nicolas celebration. The list of items a hospital needs to order is virtually endless…
And the ordering procedures can be quite complex, especially when they are paper-based. First, it takes a long time to complete the approval flow so the product can actually be ordered. Plus, the forms themselves can get lost or misplaced. And if a request gets stuck, you can’t see where the bottleneck is, or follow up on the status of approvals.

Maternity ward nurses are dedicated to giving new mothers and their new-born babies the best care. Part of this includes dealing with administrative tasks, such as updating the electronic patient record (EPR) and registering every birth within 24 hours via the eBirth web service of the Belgian eHealth platform. Midwives must enter the administrative and medical data for each new-born into the EPR, and then do it a second time in the eHealth platform. Read more
In collaboration with the Belgian Red Cross blood bank, the emergency department of Ghent University Hospital, together with Amaron and Aucxis, has developed a proof-of-concept for ordering and tracing blood products and monitoring blood transfusions. Amaron provides support for the processes with Workflower, while Aucxis integrates track & trace technology into the solution.

On 30 November 2017, Amaron and Dutch company VANAD Enovation signed a cooperation agreement. The companies will join forces on two fronts: VANAD Enovation will offer Amaron’s Workflower portfolio to its broad customer base in the Netherlands, while Amaron will offer and support VANAD Enovation’s xdsConnect exchange platform to its own customers in Belgium.

We’re proud to announce that Amaron has entered into partnership with Cerner, a global leading healthcare technology company. Both companies are cooperating around the electronic health record (EHR) projects at the University Hospitals of Antwerp (UZA) and Gent (UZ Gent) and the Sint-Lucas Hospital Gent (AZ Sint-Lucas Gent). The partnership is an important step in the realisation of eHealth and the data exchange with the different eHealth platforms in Belgium.

In March 2017, HL7 published the new FHIR Release 3 specification. It is the result of a lot of investment by the FHIR community, with hundreds of people processing more than 2400 change proposals over 18 months.
Communication between different applications – both administrative and healthcare – was often fraught with difficulties for the hospitals of the Emmaüs care network in Belgium. And yet the existing communication platform carried a heavy price tag. The hospital group worked together with Amaron to find a future-proof and cost-efficient solution.

In July, two Belgian hospitals – Sint-Rembert hospital in Torhout and Sint-Augustinus hospital in Veurne – jointly put into service a 6000-kg MRI with a 3-Tesla magnetic field. The more powerful the MRI magnetic field, the sharper the images, enabling visualization of back or brain injuries at an early stage. To house this powerful MRI, installed at the site in Veurne, a bunker had to be built to prevent other electronics in the hospital from being impacted. At the same time, the two hospitals’ RIS and PACS, from different suppliers, had to be integrated. The project was an ideal fit for Amaron.
