OVERVIEW

An Enterprise-Wide Clinical Data Management Platform

Organizations worldwide are leveraging Hitachi Clinical Repository as a fully functional and industry-leading clinical data repository. With its advanced VNA workflow features built on an enterprise-strength infrastructure, HCR takes you into the future. It supports long-term clinical innovation, including “image-enabling” your EMR/EHR. It also brings your data to life for day-to-day use and goal achievement. While the term archive indicates past or dead data, repository suggests life and regeneration. HCR revitalizes your clinical data through advanced analytics, putting this information to work in improving patient care.

Hitachi Clinical Repository Highlights

A Complete, Fully-Integrated Solution

Creating your next-generation data management platform can seem like a daunting task. Here is where HDS comes in. Integrating hardware, software and workflow solutions, the award-winning HCR securely ingests and normalizes all clinical content and metadata, allowing it to be easily accessible for clinical decision-making as well as an extensive number of other business uses.

HCR is the only fully-integrated hardware, software and workflow solution in the market today. It is manufactured by Hitachi,

renowned for its history of reliable and cutting-edge data management capabilities. We successfully handle hundreds of petabytes of data across multiple industries worldwide. As a high-end healthcare IT solution, HCR brings the historical benefits of the Hitachi brand in scalability, security and the best return on investment (ROI).

HCR is built upon the Hitachi Content Platform (HCP). This object storage solution allows organizations to store, share, synchronize, protect, preserve, analyze and retrieve file data from a single source. HCP is more efficient, easier to use, and designed to manage larger and more complex data than traditional file storage solutions. As a result, it reduces data management workload. HCP automates day-to-day IT operations, protects data and readily evolves with changes in scale, scope, applications and storage and server technologies over the life of data.

making information readily available in your day-to-day operations. HCR is much more than a VNA. It can capture all structured and unstructured clinical data, unifying existing applications. But it doesn't simply store it away in the darkness of an archive. HCR can bring data to life through indexing and reporting features. Not only does it implement EHR/EMR across the entire enterprise, but makes content and metadata searchable and useful. Our solution is one of the few in the market that will image-enable your initiatives, from EHR/EMR standardization through data analytics. At the end of the day, HCR gives you a competitive advantage in the provision of quality care.

Strict Adherence to Open Standards

Adherence to open standards is a critical factor for healthcare organizations. It shows commitment to technical innovation resulting in: better use of data, better insight, better services and better patient care. HCR supports current data standards such as DICOM, HL7 and XML. It uses open interfaces that ensure data is always accessible from any location.

In a healthcare environment where data grows quickly and must remain securely stored for years, HCR's data management capabilities prove extremely valuable. Due to its vendor-neutrality, HCR can easily manage all types of data regardless of application, source or origin. This eliminates proprietary bolt-on databases and lowers the total cost of ownership (see Figure1).

With HCR, you don't have to worry about cumbersome integrations that sink your bottom line. HCR ingests the original object and extracts the metadata for use by other applications for over 450 different data types. Bringing this IT solution on board is completely "painless" and quickly enhances your data infrastructure.

One Platform for All Your Data Needs

A single source that contains clinical business data and metadata simplifies access to the entire patient care pathway. Being able to look at all patient-relevant data in one sitting allows healthcare professionals to make more informed decisions in real time. HCR takes away the complexity of data mining and analysis,

"When selecting a solution, our key criteria were value for money, technical excellence and superb service. Hitachi Clinical Repository meets and exceeds all of these standards."

Protection From Security Breaches

Your patient data should never be at risk. At HDS, we have been doing security for a long time. In fact, HCR has been tested against the most stringent U.S. Department of Defense requirements. To further safeguard your data, it encrypts at rest and during data transmission. HCR enables role-based access at the application and user levels and a complete audit log to track data movements. Our solution is well-equipped at both the hardware and software levels to minimize security risks and ensure uptime of critical systems.
