Using Ambient AI with EMIS Web

This page focuses specifically on using the clinical integrations from Ambient AI into EMIS Web.
For general information on how to use Ambient AI see our How do I use Ambient AI? – Lexacom

Some of the Ambient AI templates are formatted to return sections corresponding to consultation notes in your clinical system. Lexacom allows you to submit the results to your clinical system without the need to copy and paste these individually.

Prerequisites

In order to integrate information between Lexacom Ambient AI and EMIS, you must:

• Have version 26.1.2 or greater installed (25.2 – 26.1.2 will allow you to add to EMIS but not pull information).
• Have activated the link between EMIS and Lexacom. See: How do I configure Lexacom to use a clinical system? – Lexacom
• Have access to the correct templates with integration activated.
• Have EMIS running with the correct patient selected.

Capture the Consultation

• Record your consultation, In the usual way.
• Select a template with clinical integration.

ⓘ Templates which connect to EMIS will display the SystmOne button above the output window.

⚠️Remember to check all results for clinical accuracy – Lexacom is designed to reduce the time you spend on admin, but not to replace your clinical knowledge.

Get Patient Information

You can pull the patient demographic details from EMIS into Lexacom. This will allow Lexacom to include the relevant details in outputs where appropriate – such as ensuring the patient name is spelt correctly.

• Make sure you have an active patient in your clinical system.
• Use the ‘Get Patient Information’ button to pull the patient information in.

• To change patient details, select a new patient in your clinical system and click ‘Get Patient Information’ again.
• To clear patient details click ‘Clear Subject’.

Add information to EMIS Web

Once you have generated the output you can process it in a number of ways. If you want to add the notes to a consultation in EMIS:

• Click on the EMIS button and select Add Consultation Notes to submit these details to your clinical system.

• A window will appear showing the Patient’s name and the details to be submitted – confirm that these are correct, and then click Submit to submit these to the system.
• If the patient name is not visible at the top of this window, click ‘cancel’, select the patient in your clinical system, and then try again.

In EMIS you will see that the patient’s record has been updated.
