A brief summary of the new and improved charts and reports Triscribe added in the last few months
A quick reminder about our survey, Triscribe saving you time. We want to hear how Triscribe can make your life, or the lives of others in your team, easier by using data to save you time?
We originally conceived Triscribe as a reporting system. Our user experience still reflects that aim. We present everything as a series of dashboards. I think there are other ways to organise medicines data that might be more useful to some users.
That’s for the future. In this post, I want to talk about dashboards. I know its still something that clinicians, especially pharmacists, would like to see when I hear suggestions like these:
“User friendly EPMA systems....interoperability should be supported and reporting needs to be accurate and easy.”
“clinical informatics dashboard for full feedback loop”
“Starting with building medicines data reports from our EPR system using Power BI. Reports generated manually but would be great to have an automated report”
“Good examples of dashboards e.g. antibiotics etc. Is there any guidance on standardizing these so that data can be fed into a national database?”
“I am new to my medication safety position and am working to establish some metrics that could be tracked and reported at our Medication Safety Committee meetings. Do any of you have dashboards or metrics that you would be willing to share?”
Triscribe has built dashboards in all these areas. They are all automated and they are all updated every day. You can find an overview of all our reporting here....what’s in the box
New reporting in last six months
We keep building and adding things as our customers request. New/ updated charts over the last six months:
Renamed “All medicines” as “Usage” and added 5 new usage charts. This now gives a great overview of the usage of any medicine across your hospital.
Antibiotics. Improved our prescription length analytics to show which patients will hit day 6 of a course of antibiotics over the next 24 hours.
Omitted Doses is now Omitted/ Delayed Doses so includes late administrations. That includes a new league table tracking the level of late/ early administrations.
Hospital Activity now allows you to drill down to see admissions by ward.
Admin Burden now includes date filters.
Prescribing is a new chart area. First focus is on Opioid Deprescribing. Very early days with this analysis. We would love to hear your ideas or suggestions on how to make this better.
What could you do with a complete view of medicines usage?
We think Triscribe is already a brilliant solution for reporting on hospital medicines uses. We are confident Triscribe is the only way to get a complete and up-to-date picture of medicines usage in your hospital every day. If you think it could be better for your needs, please tell us how we can improve our reporting.
There are other solutions to this problem. Most hospitals rely on business intelligence tools like PowerBI, Crystal Reports, Qlik and Tableau. Some rely on spreadsheets.
Hospitals are not businesses. Get in touch to discuss how Triscribe can offer a better way of providing intelligence in prescribing for your hospital, kenny@triscribe.net
