INDEPENDENT RESEARCH FIRM CITES AUTONOMY AND ISABEL HEALTHCARE FOR "SHARPEN[ING] DOCTORS' DIAGNOSES"
Together Autonomy and Isabel Healthcare bring life saving information to physicians' fingertips
Cambridge, England - November 2, 2004 - Autonomy Corporation plc (Nasdaq: AUTN; LSE: AU.) a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Isabel Healthcare, a ground breaking and award-winning clinical decision support system has been cited by independent industry analysts, Forrester Research for its ability to support the diagnostic process. The full report, entitled Search Sharpens Doctors' Diagnoses is available at www.forrester.com.
In the September 2004 report, Laura Ramos, Vice President, Forrester Research cites Isabel Healthcare and their use of innovative technology from Autonomy which encourages physicians to consider all the diagnostic possibilities and really understand the more severe implications certain common symptoms could signal: "Isabel ... is a hosted service that prompts physicians to consider different diagnoses using a Web-based, point and click interface. Isabel displays checklists of likely diagnoses grouped by systemic or clinical specialty that help reduce the consequences of clinical ignorance and omission." The report goes on to cite Isabel's ability, using world renowned technology from Autonomy to "put the clinician at the center" and "supply alternatives in the context of clinical workflow". Ramos validates both Isabel and Autonomy's vital contribution to pediatric medicine concluding "the capabilities Isabel provides fill an important need in pediatric emergency medicine."
Calling the partnership between Autonomy and healthcare a "good match", Ramos acknowledges the pivotal role played by Autonomy's unique IDOL technology which enables clinicians to relate ideas conceptually: "Autonomy powers Isabel's diagnosis suggestions and increases the likelihood that the system will produce relevant alternative diagnoses, not just keyword matches. Autonomy's software helps Isabel find the best matches between symptoms and diseases, not necessarily the only ones. Isabel highlights the unique benefits that Autonomy delivers to the healthcare industry".
"This report celebrates the success and vision of the Isabel project, which, using Autonomy's IDOL technology, has delivered invaluable advice and information to more than 20,000 physicians around the globe" said Charlotte Herbert, Marketing Manager, Autonomy. "We are incredibly proud to be providing the core technology behind such an important application."
Dr Joseph Britto, Clinical Director of Isabel Healthcare said, "This research from Forrester confirms Isabel's importance in pediatric medicine and gives us great satisfaction that our efforts to develop technology that has a positive impact on delivery of healthcare to children is being recognized by both the medical profession and by leading industry analysts. There is an overwhelming demand for Isabel and we're looking forward to more physicians around the world being able to get access to diagnostic alternatives that continue to save lives."
