The E.V-Trax system was initially developed for a major US teaching hospital with over 17,000 HCPs. The system utilizes a handheld computer equipped with a barcode scanner, magnetic stripe reader, and special software to collect and manage employee immunization information at the time the vaccines are administered, whether it ™s at the facility or at off-site locations. Customized screens on the handheld computer take the caregiver through each step of the process, assuring all information is properly collected and updated, including tracking for allergy, medical or spiritual exemptions. Vaccine manufacturer and lot information can also be tracked to the individual employee and administration date, time and location.

When the vaccinations are completed, the data is securely uploaded from the handheld computer into a central SQL database, where analyses or reports can be generated, or the data can be passed to an organization ™s human resource management system (HRMS), such as PeopleSoft?®.

General Data ™s E.V-Trax system eliminates the more common paper process and manual data entry, and provides accurate, updated and timely information on individual employee vaccinations, in addition to the overall progress of the immunization program. In an emergency, such as an outbreak in a particular area or wing of a hospital, this information can be used to immediately reallocate personnel resources, thereby helping to avoid a mass quarantine or other significant disruption.
