ST. PAUL, Minn., April 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Point of Care Decision Support (PCDS), leaders in the development and implementation of anticoagulation clinical decision support software, announce today the release of a new version (2.0) of their AC software.

- Automatic dosage calculations using validated nomograms to assist in medication management
- Integration with validated survey instruments such as CHA2DS2-VASc, HAS-BLED and HEMORR2HAGES
- Full patient plan of care instructions available to print providing a customized and relevant shared patient/clinician experience
- EMR agnostic integration with bidirectional flow of patient data that dramatically decreases data entry
- Enhanced reporting options that meet CMS/MACRA "high activity" improvement requirements
Stephen Hart, Vice President of Development said, "The functionality and data-driven approach to of our AC software continues to evolve based on industry needs and demands. With Point of Care AC 2.0, we transform the anticoagulant patient care process with evidence-based guidelines providing a validated electronic clinical decision support tool that can assist in patient anticoagulant therapy improvement." Hart added, "The PCDS team of developers strive to build tools which can help clinicians be more productive. A primary goal of the platform is for it to be easy to use and not difficult to learn. UI workflow interactions should provide only the relevant data for the task at hand and finishing that task should only take a minute and be a click away."
Point of Care Decision Support will be demonstrating AC 2.0 at the upcoming AC Forum Boot Camp for physicians, nurses and pharmacists that work with patients on oral anticoagulant therapies in Austin, Texas, April 23-24.
