Mercator is a software product designed for the Microsoft Windows 95 and Microsoft Windows NT operating systems running on an IBM compatible platform. Mercator consists of a user interface that enables health care professionals to input, store, and output data from a relational database. The product consists of a set of modules that can be "plugged in" to customize the application to individual users' needs. Mercator is capable of multi-tasking and supports the linking and embedding of related information objects in the ECG. The software supports many aspects of a patient's cardiology record including: arrhythmia diagnosis, pathological diagnosis, ECGs, ECG information, doctor notes, pacemaker/ICD data and associated reports. Mercator also supports appointment scheduling and stores information on physicians, facilities, allied health care professionals, and insurance providers. Mercator is not a life-supporting or life-sustaining system. It is intended that competent human intervention be involved before any impact on health occurs. Clinical judgment and experience are used to check and interpret the data.
