At my hospital we are on a very old 3.0 system of Rapidcomm, and we need to add a new employee as a routine user and none of us have any idea how to do that since the only person that knew hoe, the supervisor, has left.Reply

Siemens Expands RAPIDComm Data Management Solution Connectivity to Manage Diabetes Testing Results

Point-of-care coordinators and laboratory managers can now remotely monitor and manage HbA1c and Microalbumin testing results on the Siemens DCA Vantage analyzer.

Tarrytown, NY, September 21, 2011 – Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has launched its new RAPIDComm® Data Management Solution Version 4.0, extending system connectivity to the company’s DCA Vantage® diabetes analyzer.  Now point-of-care (POC) laboratory managers are able to rely on a single, advanced user interface to remotely monitor and manage diabetes testing results, in addition to blood gas via RAPIDSystems, and urinalysis via the CLINITEK Status® Connect System. This move further integrates patient data throughout the healthcare network.

With decentralized testing, POC coordinators may be responsible for monitoring large numbers of instruments spread throughout a hospital or various hospital sites, which are operated by several hundred to several thousand operators. Coordinators are challenged with ensuring operator certification is up to date and that quality control (QC) procedures are being adhered to and documented. As the demand for POC testing continues to increase, so does the need for solutions that can integrate POC analyzers throughout a healthcare organization to improve the reliability of results, maximize instrument uptime, streamlining workflow and simplify compliance.

“Healthcare professionals that manage POC testing in hospitals, clinics and physician offices are increasingly looking to integrate their instruments with a data management solution to reduce transcription errors and better manage data, quality control and operators, which ultimately helps to improve patient care,” said David Stein, Ph.D., CEO, Point of Care Business Unit, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics. “A key priority for Siemens is to continue the innovation of our instruments and data management solutions to provide our POC customers with innovative and flexible connectivity options.”


The RAPIDComm system is accessible from any computer connected to the hospital-wide network and can be customized to address the needs of different departments, users and patients. With this system, POC coordinators are able to remotely manage and maximize instrument uptime, simplify instrument control and operator management.

The system’s advanced functionality also allows healthcare professionals to implement safeguards that improve patient care by setting critical ranges and trend alerts for different sample types and facilitating result review by exception to focus attention on critical areas. POC coordinators are also able to modify screen views, reports and system alerts to reflect the needs of their institutions. Additionally, RAPIDComm enhances quality control (QC) management, control and documentation with automated QC result processing and customizable regulatory reports.
