November 7, 2007 -- Interventional device developer Boston Scientific of Natick, MA, and Chalfont St. Giles, U.K.-based GE Healthcare have completed their patient data integration project between a cardiac rhythm management remote monitoring system and a physician's electronic medical record (EMR).

The integration at Seattle Cardiology and Cardiology Consultants of Philadelphia uses Boston Scientific's Latitude patient management system to allow clinicians to access information from a patient's implanted cardiac device, and store the data within the GE Centricity EMR system in the form of lab results.
