Mobile Application Supports AORN Guidelines

MyRounding and the Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN) have created a partnership to create “myAORNguidelines,” a new product that will enable operating room managers and administrators to analyze and sustain compliance with AORN’s evidence-based Guidelines for Perioperative Practice.

This SaaS-based product is built on the HIPAA-compliant MyRounding platform to reduce the amount of work and time that is required to audit, report and give feedback; it automatically identifies the gap between how guidelines are being implemented and optimal adherence to the most current AORN Guidelines. Further, it has a powerful issue management function that allows for practice issues to be identified, assigned, tracked and monitored.

MyAORNguidelines helps OR directors, managers and nurses with the implementation of the AORN Guidelines. Through the intuitive interface users can collect and organize data for quality assessments as well as monitoring adherence to policies and procedures.

“This is an exciting partnership for the MyRounding team,” said Tony Gorski, CEO of MyRounding. “We are excited to join with AORN in the creation of an easy-to-use mobile application for the AORN Guidelines. In addition, we will be creating an industry benchmark to measure compliance with the AORN Guidelines to help improve the quality of patient care.”

Currently in the final stages of development, the product is slated to be released in the summer of 2015. •
