CLIQ and MaRDI
MaRDI
The Medical Record
Data Infrastructure (MaRDI) is the technical foundation on which CLIQ and other
clinical applications are built. MaRDI is comprised of four primary components:
The CDR contains patient demographic and visit history data, laboratory test
results, pathology, cardiology, EMG and radiology reports, pharmacy
prescription data, admission history and physical notes, operative notes,
discharge summaries and selected outpatient clinical notes. MaRDI processes
more than 50,000 HL7 messages per day, and the CDR houses more than 80,000,000
results and reports.
CLIQ is a
Web-based results reporting application and
clinical user interface that provides efficient and easy access to
information housed in the MaRDI CDR. CLIQ organizes data in a clinically
intuitive, patient-centric format, permitting access to all electronically
available results and reports in a single location, independent of the legacy
system from which the data originated. Clinicians can access data on CLIQ from
any Web-enabled computer from office, hospital or home (with a secure Internet
connection). CLIQ is currently deployed at eight State public hospitals:
CLIQ utilization statistics ... CLIQ serves more than one
thousand unique users each day.
CLIQ deployment schedule ... CLIQ installation planned for additional
hospitals and clinics.
and twenty-four community health center locations in the New Orleans
metropolitan area. CLIQ and MaRDI represent initial steps toward an electronic
medical record and a local health information
infrastructure for the State's public hospital system and the
surrounding communities it serves.
