egnite Overhauls CardioCare Interface to Streamline Heart Care

The Aliso Viejo-based company built these enhancements based on direct feedback from care teams, focusing on reducing the time spent navigating disparate charts. By organizing patient details by pathology on a single screen, the platform allows providers to view key findings from EMR, echo, and ECG reports without toggling between multiple windows. New features include severity-based patient lists and a customizable home page that automatically highlights meaningful clinical events, such as recent admissions or new diagnostic results.

Rachel Bates, a cardiology coordinator at Buffalo General Hospital, noted that the update significantly improves the speed of accessing clinical context, which is often buried in dense reports. This efficiency is critical, as data from egnite’s 2023 benchmarking report shows that 42% of patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis remain untreated within a year of diagnosis despite meeting intervention criteria. The platform aims to bridge this gap by applying AHA-ACC based clinical logic to unstructured data, enabling hospital teams to manage patient cohorts at a scale impossible through manual chart reviews. Kahla Verhoef, COO of egnite, emphasized that as cardiovascular programs expand to cover conditions like mitral valve disease and atrial fibrillation, the platform is designed to keep patients moving along guideline-directed treatment pathways.
