| Krames Launches Krames On-Demand Version 4.0 Krames is officially releasing the highly anticipated Krames On-Demand (KOD) Version 4.0. KOD 4.0 not only has an updated interface with a more contemporary look and feel, it has improved navigational features that are designed to help further streamline the workflow at healthcare facilities. All KOD 4.0 upgrades were developed based on client feedback and usability testing. One major enhancement available to KOD 4.0 users is a pre-existing Folder Library. The new Library features pre-installed health topic folders on the most commonly diagnosed diseases and conditions based on hospital admissions data. Coinciding with the launch of Krames 4.0, Krames is also announcing the addition of hundreds of new titles for 2006. While Krames increased its content collection by almost 100 new and 130 revised titles in 2005, Krames plans to distribute at least four times that amount this year, with an average of 40 to 60 new titles each month throughout 2006. The expanded content will primarily focus on pediatric titles based on ongoing customer demand, but Krames also plans to develop new and revised titles for additional health topics such as infectious diseases, neurology, orthopedics, and cardiology. Scheduled for release in early 2006 are 50 pediatric titles, 33 nutrition sheets that reflect the new Food Pyramid Guidelines, 27 pulmonary medicine titles, and 20 obstetrics titles. Krames On-Demand is a print-on-demand patient education solution designed for hospitals and health systems. KOD allows nurses, doctors and educators to instantly select and personalize over 4, 400 single topic HealthSheets for each patient and print them at the point of care. The HealthSheets are available in English and Spanish in over 36 topic areas. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
