For more than a decade Vitalpulse have been the acknowledged experts in renal computing.  Their work with Renal Registries, UK Transplant and Renal Patient View are well known, and their software interfaces with laboratories, PAS and dialysis equipment involves them with almost every renal unit in the UK.

Now their VitalData Clinical Information System is being deployed across the country, having been selected as the system of choice for 5 major renal installations in 2009. Success of the product is attributed to its configurability, ease of use and competitive price, as well as the company’s profound understanding of user needs. VitalData is based on an industry standard SQL database, within a sophisticated yet intuitive graphical Windows environment. Commissioning includes the migration of all historic patient data from the system it replaces. Laboratory, demographic and dialysis machine interfaces are available, and integration with Microsoft Office products. VitalData remains flexible so that it can accommodate evolving requirements and standards of the National Renal Dataset.

Vitalpulse also provides on-going software support for Proton systems and has recently established a new dedicated customer support service and help line.
