Overview
Why OBIX?
The OBIX System Delivers
Designed with the clinicians in mind, the OBIX system provides complete central, bedside, and remote electronic fetal monitoring. We work cooperatively with industry leading EHR companies to secure a seamless integration between systems, to deliver a premier perinatal software solution for obstetrics patient care. The OBIX system transcends other options in the market because this is our baby.
OBIX is the lifeline to the patient I can’t see.

An Innovative Perinatal Solution
Intuitive System
Workflow That Makes Sense
The OBIX system helps critical thinking clinicians throughout the assessment process, enhances workflow supporting standards of care, presents the complete picture of patient assessments and improves communications between care providers.
From critical access to large, multi-facility health systems, we work to simplify the process. The OBIX system offers enterprise-wide perinatal data access across facilities to meet the varying needs of hospital and healthcare systems. We know that one size does not fit all.
Clinical Decision Support
For Critical Thinkers
The OBIX system’s E-Tools were developed to aid, not replace, clinicians in making timely, informed, and quality decisions at the patient bedside. E-Tools are not only helpful clinically, but they can be used to educate staff, to reinforce and clarify NICHD definitions during the assessment of the fetal heart rate. Additionally, with the increased focus on uterine activity, key information is presented for evaluation and management of uterine activity during labor.
Uterine Activity (UA) Tool
With patient safety and labor management at the forefront of obstetrics, the UA Tool was developed for clinicians to evaluate uterine activity over time, and to be able to assess frequency, and rule out tachysystole during labor. The tool allows care providers to confirm evaluation results or make modifications based on their assessments.
Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) Tools
Developed in collaboration with Lisa A. Miller, CNM, JD, the OBIX system’s FHR Tools assist clinicians with the ability to apply NICHD definitions with confidence during the assessment of FHR baseline, variability, accelerations, and decelerations.
Maternal Alerts
The OBIX system’s Maternal Alerts are designed to provide actionable alerts to clinicians when key maternal vital signs exceed predefined parameters from any OBIX Surveillance display.
These alerts manifest in both visual and audible forms. Visual alerts involve vital signs turning red with an orange frame appearing around the maternal vitals banner frame. Maternal alerts continue until acknowledged or auto corrected.
Charting, Reporting, and Care Provider Communications
Charting
Charting modules complement clinical workflow to quickly and accurately document all steps of a patient’s care from the bedside to the nurses’ stations. Charting modules include flowsheets, care plans, and graphs.
- Maternal Care: Intrapartum, Recovery, Postpartum, Trace Annotations, Care Plans
- Newborn Care: Newborn, SCN, Care Plans
- Remote Provider Access (RPA): Access to fetal monitoring traces, access to patient notes and flowsheets, limited remote patient charting
Reports
Generate comprehensive reports with OBIX forms that can be customized to meet hospital standards. Data that populates into a mother’s record links to her baby’s in the Newborn Record. Queries can be customized using any hospital provided tool compliant ODBC– short for Open Database Connectivity. Forms and reports include logs and statistics for triage/admission, delivery, intraoperative, newborn, and incomplete records.
Communications
OBIX Mobility is a mobile app that gives authorized clinicians secure remote access to OBIX patient encounters. Users can quickly retrieve patient tracings, notes snapshots, focused notes views, and perform dynamic searches of OBIX note content. The app also allows viewing the entire tracing from admission to the current time, keeping providers engaged in patient care.
— Lisa A. Miller, CNM, JDE-Tools are available to assist nurses, midwives, and physicians with management of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) and decisions regarding patient care. Developed in collaboration with Clinical Computer Systems, Inc., the E-Tools suite of products supports application of the standardized NICHD nomenclature for fetal heart rate components, application of the NICHD categories, and evaluation of uterine activity.
