WALTHAM, Mass. — February 14, 2017 — Mobile Heartbeat, a leading provider of smartphone applications that improve clinical workflow and team communications, today announced Version 11 of MH-CURE (Clinical Urgent REsponse), its secure clinical smartphone application enabling clinical communications, patient-specific workflow and a real-time clinical team directory connecting all members of a patient’s care team.

MH-CURE delivers data analytics, providing hospitals with granular data and reports on user adoption and communications patterns, along with efficiency-based metrics. Version 11 also introduces the CURE-Connect family of APIs, allowing seamless navigation between applications, integration with inbound call systems, such as alarms and alerts, and access to current care team information by patient.

New Data Analytics Capability

MH-CURE’s unique data analytics capability provides hospitals with data on user adoption, application usage and communication patterns that directly affect patient care. Clinicians can also obtain efficiency-based metrics on activities, such as a patient’s emergency department-to-bed placement or discharge. With this real-time data, hospitals can quantify the degree to which MH-CURE improves the efficiency and collaboration of the care team and affects clinical outcomes. They can also uncover different, more effective workflows or determine where additional training may be needed. The data captured can be easily integrated into clinical data warehouses for future examination or reporting needs.

CURE-Connect Family of APIs
With Version 11, MH-CURE introduces CURE-Connect, a set of APIs enabling easy external systems integration. Through CURE-Connect, external systems can send alerts and care team data to MH-CURE’s dynamic patient care team, and users can easily move between applications. CURE-Connect includes the following three APIs:

· CURE-Connect Inbound Messaging – currently connects eight different external systems to send an alert to the dynamic care team set up in MH-CURE.

· CURE-Connect Care Team Query API – sends information from an external system that defines the dynamic care team for creating the dynamic care team in MH-CURE and presenting a unified team.

· CURE-Connect InterApp API – allows the user to easily move between applications within MH-CURE, such as seamlessly accessing EMRs from MH-CURE without leaving the application.

Enhanced Voice Communications
MH-CURE Version 11 enhances voice communications through its integration with Apple CallKit and Cisco Fast Lane. MH-CURE leverages Apple CallKit for seamlessly answering phone calls both inside and outside the application, utilizing its dialing interface to both make and receive calls. As part of its collaboration with Apple, Cisco Fast Lane prioritizes phone calls on iOS devices on the Cisco wireless network, ensuring there are no gaps or drops in voice communications. By adding integration with these powerful voice applications, Mobile Heartbeat expands its collaboration with Apple and Cisco.
