Midmark, EHS integrate ECG technology

EHR developer EHS has integrated Midmark's IQecg digital resting ECG with its CareRevolution practice management and EHR tool.

Midmark and EHS customers can perform ECG tests, view and edit results from within the Birmingham, Ala.-based EHS’ CareRevolution without leaving the application or opening additional programs, stated Midmark.

Test results acquired by the IQecg will go into the patient’s chart in the CareRevolution system, added Midmark, of Versailles, Ohio.
