Tracking Health

NIS ™ High-Risk Infant Follow-up
Application

The Neonatal Information System™ (NIS™) High-Risk Infant Follow-Up System (HRF) is a clinical database solution that was developed based on over 25 years of input from physicians, nurses and administrators from different regions of the United States.

Designed specifically for high-risk infants, the NIS™ HRF supports the tracking of health outcomes and neurodevelopment from infancy through childhood and encompasses the full scope of high-risk infant follow-up assessment and care.

NIS HRF can be customized for your applications

Multiple Use Options

The NIS™ HRF can be used as a standalone system or as an app to the NIS™. For hospitals using the NIS™, the demographic, perinatal, hospital stay and discharge data are automatically linked to the NIS™ HRF, saving time and avoiding double data entry. In addition, new patient data (for patients whose hospital care occurred elsewhere) can also be entered into the NIS™ HRF clinical database.

Hospitals that choose to use the NIS™ HRF as a standalone data management system have the option to interface with the hospital electronic medical record – just as the hospitals that use the in-house portion of the NIS™ has – to upload data to and from the EMR and NIS™ HRF.

Powerful query options makes your data more relevant

Data Query Capabilities

Importantly, hospitals using the NIS™ High-Risk Infant Follow-up application are able to query the data both retrospectively as well as prospectively.

As an example:

Of the patients who had BPD and were on a ventilator for more than 10 days and received a FiO2 of greater than 0.75; how many were developmentally delayed at a corrected age of 18 months.
