Finding relevant information fast - linking of clinical data, laboratory data and genetic data
A classic manual archive of patient documents in paper form takes up space, is costly to operate and can only be viewed by stakeholders to a limited extent. The Iterata solution "Scanning for Search & View" immediately creates space that can be used for other purposes and makes the scanned patient documents machine-readable through OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for automated assignment to the patient dossier. The digitized information is immediately searchable and available to all authorized persons. Predefined evaluations and ad-hoc analyses can be immediately extracted from the data in the form of reports and tables.
For the introduction of a scanning solution in a healthcare organization, the focus is on the simple connection of physical and electronic documents to a patient dossier. Our goal is to simplify and automate your process and eliminate unnecessary interfaces. As a unique feature, the system is based on the complete searchability of digital documents (unstructured and structured data) on Iterata's Swiss Digital Health Platform (SDHP).
The search capabilities allow quality checks, migrations, and linking of your data with other medical and administrative content.
As a Digital Health Consortium, we see ourselves as an enabler. Along the phases of access, know-how, new business models, transformation, process efficiencies, education, research and publication, we accompany you as a partner and technology supplier in clinical implementation and digitalization.

Structured Data Entry (SDE) is a basic prerequisite for an improved decision-making process. Data quality increases, the process is accelerated and costs are optimised. In addition, daily medical practice and research is facilitated by a standardised, clearly formulated and consistent catalogue of questions. If the data entry is structured, the data can be evaluated in real time and there are no longer delays in report generation. The data becomes addressable and therefore searchable and is permanently monitored.
Iterata has developed a solution that allows professionals to define their structures (items) in corresponding lists, trees up to graphs and thus automatically generate their application for data capture in the field of clinical workflow. This allows clinicians to create intelligent applications and forms, including the automatic generation of reports. This tool enables to create personalised and clinician-tailored applications and to build and expand domain knowledge and the corresponding notions of data structures and entities.

Our customer, a Swiss based hospital holds decades of laboratory results and clinical reports. Although these documents are available in electronic form, they could not easily be searched and accessed.
In our project, we extracted these documents into a structured format and built fully electronic patient dossiers. This enables our customer to execute anonymized clinical research with unprecedented cohort sizes (thousands of patients rather than hundreds) and excelent quality of data. As a side effect, operations can access patient data much faster which saves administrative costs.
• Search engine access and analysis of real world medical data feasible
• Identification and evaluation of cases for clinical and study purposes possible
• Real world data analysis of adverse drug effects in sense of “intelligent assistance”
• Expansion over different databases of several hospitals imminent
From a comprehensive perspective, the Swiss Digital Health Platform (SDHP) is a unifying platform that integrates key healthcare stakeholders to significantly improve treatment and prophylaxis options. At the heart of the SDHP platform is the ability to perform high quality genetic analyses and provide high quality decision support for physicians and patients based on the sequenced data. In order to achieve a higher informative value, gene analyses should not be considered in isolation, but should be assessed in combination with other available patient data (such as diagnoses, laboratory values and treatment findings). In this way, patient data becomes the essence of the SDHP platform. Gene sequencing thus becomes a crystallization point for individual patient dossiers, which can be enriched with many other data, even independently of a direct medical need. Within the framework of defined activities and processes, authorized actors in designated roles can use data from these data via corresponding services.
Extraction of salient features from clinical data
Questions for quality assurance
• How effective are drugs in real life?
• How frequent are undesired effects of drugs in routine care?
• Are potential serious drug interactions considered in routine care prescription?
• Which sequence and dosing of drugs is optimal for outcome?
Questions for clinical studies
• Which cases with a given (rare) diagnosis are cared for in my unit?
• Which patients fulfil a given set of classification/ diagnosis criteria?
• Can patients be ranked according to activity and response to treatment?
• Are data from routine care superior to those of randomised, prospective clinical trials?
We foster health operations and research in collaboration with hospitals, clinics, the pharmaceutical & laboratory industries and educational institutions through technological know-how, expertise and capacity
Iterata applies an innovative technological approach to the searchability and structuring of large, complex, unstructured data sets from the clinical routine
We enable interoperability between systems and organizations and exchange of nationwide routine clinical data that becomes accessible for research
We provide access to state-of-the-art Search Technologies.
We do not move data; we send our algorithms to the data. Data remains in its secure policy space.
We reduce interfaces dramatically.
We ensure highest level data security through secure transmission technology, encryption and automated anonymization/depersonalization.
Our tools allow to create a structured data environment from multi-stakeholder environment with an inhomogeneous data landscape. Full de-personalisation/anonymization is guaranteed. The integration of key stakeholders allows to combine diagnostic and clinical data which over time do provide access to a vast pool of relevant data for research.
Our tools sweep over the existing data landscape without copying and organize data in a highly structured way - the Iterata Business Intelligence tools do not require a change of the underlying IT landscape – data stays in its policy spaces.
The tool is pre-destined to include the further commoditizing Genetics and combine it with diagnostic and clinical data to build the fundament for genotyping based treatment.
There are benefits in the operations, as the structured data allows to create a Speed Layer for fast decision making for the involved GPs and the clinicians
