Microsoft HealthVault Connectivity Added to OmniComm’s TrialMasterTM EDC Solution
Cutting-Edge Technology Used to Link Clinical Trial and Healthcare Data
FORT LAUDERDALE, FL--(Marketwire – 1/25/10) - OmniComm Systems,
Inc. (OTC: OMCM.OB), one of the fastest growing companies in the
electronic data capture (EDC) marketplace, today announced that the company’s TrialMaster
EDC product has connected to Microsoft HealthVault. This new functionality will
streamline the information flow by enabling health records and data stored in the
patient’s HealthVault account to be transferred into TrialMaster for inclusion with
other information gathered during clinical trial participation.
Microsoft HealthVault is a personal health application platform designed to put
consumers in control of their health information. HealthVault enables users to connect
to and share information across the health ecosystem and facilitates the upload
of data from home monitoring devices like blood glucose monitors, blood pressure
cuffs and pedometers. By providing consumers with easy access to their health information
HealthVault encourages them to better manage their health and wellness. TrialMaster
will leverage this patient-centric platform in a variety of ways including Patient
Diary, Continuity of Care Records (CCR), direct device data upload and more to provide
more efficient, accurate information for those patients participating in clinical
trials.
"HealthVault was developed to help consumers play a more active role in their health
and wellness by giving them control of their health information," said David Cerino,
general manager for the Consumer Health Solutions Group at Microsoft Corp."By connecting
to HealthVault, OmniComm enables a more connected view of a patient’s data by both
the consumer and the clinical trial administrator, enabling all stakeholders to
make more informed decisions around the clinical trial experience."
"We are extremely pleased to be able to offer this service to HealthVault users
who are also participating in clinical trials," said Randy Smith, Chief Technology
Officer of OmniComm. "The versatile HealthVault platform allows us not only to retrieve
patient-centric information but also share select information with patients gathered
during the clinical trial process. This technology offers a true advantage in its
ability to directly upload data from many devices including blood pressure monitors,
heart rate monitors, glucose meters, pulse oximeters, scales and other devices thus
improving data management and quality assurance."
