The medical world has made astounding progress in the past decade. Tools available to the caregiver are improving constantly, increasing diagnosis and treatment options. This trend has significantly increased total patient medical data. Concurrently, patients are becoming increasingly mobile and are seeing more caregivers than in the past. Together, both trends of increased medical data and increased patient mobility have resulted in the creation of numerous partial medical records scattered among physicians, systems and institutions vs. one comprehensive medical record.

The dbMotion Solution is designed to access medical information across a variety of sources and locations, integrating all patient information into a single record. The record created, called a Virtual Patient Record, can be used in several ways, including displaying a medical history to caregivers, analyzing personal and community information to support the decision-making process and allowing caregivers to communicate more efficiently. The dbMotion Solution was especially designed to address technical and business problems that arise from the sharing of medical information and enables great flexibility due its decentralized federated architecture. Deployment times for the dbMotion Solution are short, adoption is quick, and there is no affect on the existing information systems, therefore maximizing the return on past investments in information technologies.
