Soprano Specialty Forms Project--A solution that empowers clinicians in the management of research and audit data.
Throughout the world, clinicians (including nurses) create ad-hoc stand-alone databases in order to meet their individual research and audit requirements. These databases often exist in large numbers within an institution. They meet individual requirements and capture a large quantity of valuable clinical information, but it is not possible to pool or share that information because of a lack of common data structures and coding. The Soprano Specialty Forms solution developed by Orion Health in collaboration with Auckland District Health Board resolves this problem. The solution provides a common data storage and coding infrastructure within which clinicians can create their own forms for data collection, enter data through an integrated portal used as part of their everyday clinical practice, and easily query the data collected regardless of its source.
