The startup of LOWTeqpdms in the intensive care unit at Haus St. Vincenz Heiligenstadt went perfectly. After Haus Reifenstein, Haus St. Vincenz Heiligenstadt is the second facility in the Eichsfeld Klinikum gGmbH to use LOWTeqpdms in its ICU.
Since February, the Development team at LOWTeq GmbH has been reinforced by Daphne Thompson. After getting her MBA she worked at a large automotive manufacturer and a technology firm in India, and at a software company. Daphne Thompson now brings her expertise in software engineering to LOWTeq for the further development and improvement of LOWTeqpdms.
Since mid-January, Fabian Frieß has been contributing his skills to our Development team. Formerly a systems developer at an international provider of integrated software solutions for the processing industry and logistics, the focus of this IT specialist’s work at LOWTeq GmbH is in interface development.
The implementation of LOWTeqemergency at St. Claraspital Basel went as desired and as planned. Following LOWTeqanaesthesia, this is the second LOWTeqpdms module in operation in this Swiss acute care hospital. The go-live was also a successful premiere – St. Claraspital Basel is the first Swiss hospital to use LOWTeqemergency in its emergency care unit. What’s more, implementation of LOWTeqintensive care in the facility’s ICU is planned for 2021.
The implementation of LOWTeqpdms in the anaesthesiology department at the St.-Antonius-Hospital Eschweiler went quickly and smoothly. As an academic teaching hospital of the RWTH Aachen, with LOWTeqpdms the St.-Antonius-Hospital gGmbH in Eschweiler will further increase its high level of digitalization in anaesthesiology.
On 13. November 2019 Dr. Aloys Oberthür, CEO of LOWTeq GmbH, presented the flexible and integrative patient data management system LOWTeqpdms to students at an industrial colloquium held regularly at the Mathematical Institute of the University of Cologne. Afterwards Dr. Oberthür fielded students’ questions together with Kamran Awan, software developer at LOWTeq GmbH.
A perfect fit – with Kamran Awan, LOWTeq has added to the professional capacity in our developer team. Awan, a degreed mathematician, will contribute his skills to software development.
The time came for our quality management system (QMS) to be recertified, and we are proud to report that all went well. The conversion of our QMS certification to the latest 13485:2016 standard was a success.
LOWTeqpdms was taken into operation on schedule early this month in Anaesthesia at the Clara hospital in Basel. This successful go-live, which took place just two months after the contract signing, is the first of three planned implementations of LOWTeqpdms at this institution.
The Basel Clara hospital has officially decided to use modules of LOWTeqpdms. This highly specialized acute hospital will work with LOWTeqanaesthesia, LOWTeqintensive care and LOWTeqemergency. It is the first institution in Switzerland to use LOWTeqpdms in all of its acute medicine units. The go-live in Anaesthesia is planned for early June this year.
