T SystemEV is an Emergency Department Information System (EDIS) developed as an evolutionary product based on T-System's proprietary T-Sheet documentation system.
Origins
T-Sheets were developed by Woodrow Gandy, M.D. and Rob Langdon, M.D. as a response to rapidly increasing Emergency Department visits in order to streamline documentation. They specifically aim to reduce documentation time by reducing patient encounters to problem-focused templates consisting of annotated checkboxes. The system was originally intended to be implemented in software, but the founders decided to perfect the templates on paper.[1]
They were first deployed at a single site in 1996, and during their peak growth period, the product was deployed at 50-60 new sites each month. They now provide services to 40% of Emergency Departments in the United States. T-Sheets gained additional notoriety when they were used as props on the television show "ER."
T-System is located in Dallas, TX.
Electronic Health Record Module
In 2001, T-System introduced T SystemEV, an Electronic Health Record module that has been certified as supporting Meaningful Use. T SystemEV incorporates the following features:
- Physician documentation
- Nursing documentation
- Patient tracking
- Computerized provider order entry
- Integrated diagnosis advising based on the ISABEL diagnosis checklist system
- Emergency Department throughput analysis tools
- Clinical decision support
The primary differentiating feature of T SystemEV from other EHR EDIS modules is its user interface, which is based on it the widespread and familiar T-Sheet product.[2]
As of 2011, 240 hospitals have deployed or are in process for implementation for T SystemEV.[3] In a survey of California hospital EDIS, T SystemEV was not selected as one of 9 "well-known" systems for review, and was not specifically reported in use at any of the 51 hospitals surveyed. [4]
