Addressing the Information Overload Issue to Reduce Risk and Improve Patient Outcomes.

AWARE is a viewer and clinical decision support tool designed to reduce risk of error. It works with multiple EHR systems and bedside monitors to present only relevant information on a single screen dashboard. This minimizes information overload, which results in lower cost of care. By facilitating quick access to patients’ information at the point of care AWARE aids interventional decision-making.
