With the implementation of Electronic Health Records (EHR) becoming widespread, the amount of discreet clinical data is rapidly increasing. There has always been tremendous pressure upon clinicians to work quickly to provide care to many patients – the advent of so many systems providing such data compounds that pressure. EXTENSION provides a means to filter data in order to highlight and notify necessary parties of critical events and makes the information available when and where it is needed. By increasing the availability of clinical data, the aforementioned pressure is eased allowing the clinician to make accurate, informed decision with confidence. EXTENSION is an integration tool that provides a straight-forward means of integrating Cisco Unified Communications (UC) and smart phones with data intensive clinical and business systems. It is commonly accepted that ease of availability of data to clinicians has a positive effect on the quality of care provided to patients.
