Clinicians working across five of the six trusts in our region can now instantly access test results from across our WYAAT pathology network, following the successful roll-out of Clinisys’ ICE OpenNet. Airedale NHS Foundation Trust is expected to go-live with this software later in the year.
Clinisys ICE OpenNet is an order communications and results reporting system that is used extensively in NHS hospitals and GP practices to enable clinicians to see pathology and other test results obtained at various NHS trusts.
Other NHS pathology services also already use ICE OpenNet connections to enable clinicians working at one hospital to see tests results from another, or to share information with a local specialist centre. However, WYAAT's rollout is one of the biggest in the country, connecting six trusts that collectively employ 50,000 staff and order over 50 million tests per year.
