Centricity ™
Clinical Notification System 1.0
Proactively manage your patients
Centricity Clinical Notification System (CNS) allows defining a set of conditions based on any combination of relevant patient data. Whenever
they are verified, a notification is forwarded to the caring clinicians. The
clinicians can use these to help evaluate the patient’s health condition
and to plan for the necessary interventions.

Detect early and act promptly
During each care stay, a computerized system can
collect literally thousands of different patient related
data. Finding your way through this huge amount of
information could represent a serious challenge. Until
today.
Centricity Clinical Notification System (CNS) can help
you by continuously searching through the available
patient data and automatically comparing them by
means of user-defined rules. It can help to identify
potentially relevant clinical events and to bring them to
your attention. You can then verify and evaluate them
for their significance and plan for any necessary followup actions.
Centricity CNS allows its users to define simple or more
advanced rules. These rules can utilize any combination of the comprehensive patient related data that is
constantly collected by Centricity Critical Care, including
observations or medication details. Centricity CNS is
flexible and can produce notifications around clinical
events, but also concerning protocols and data completeness.
How about asking Centricity CNS to notify you whenever an established, user-defined therapeutic goal has
not been reached? And how about being reminded of
an important examination result which is still missing?
