COSEHC and OnePartner Join Forces to Improve Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes
Monday, October 13, 2008
DUFFIELD, Va. and WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Michael
A. Moore, President of the Consortium for Southeastern Hypertension Control
(COSEHC) and Tom Deaderick, Director of OnePartner, LLC announce an agreement
to join forces in the collection and analysis of health care data from the
COSEHC Centers of Excellence affiliated network of medical practices.
COSEHC is a nonprofit voluntary health organization created in 1992 in
response to the compelling need to improve the disproportionately high levels
of hypertension-related morbidity and mortality throughout the southeastern
United States where the highest prevalence of hypertension and the greatest
incidence of hypertensive complications exists compared with other
geographical regions.
In the southeastern U.S. COSEHC is achieving its mission by improving the
awareness and knowledge of cardiovascular disease through education and by
closing the gap in the translation of data into practical knowledge at many
levels in the health care system. The cardiovascular clinical data collected
through the COSEHC Database with the assistance of OnePartner will provide a
very large prospective database which will be the basis for ongoing
improvements in best practices and research in hypertension and cardiovascular
disease.
OnePartner will host the COSEHC Database hardware in the nation's first
certified commercial Tier III data center, the Advanced Technology &
Applications Center (ATAC) located in Duffield, Virginia. The one-of-a-kind
ATAC is designed to support disaster recovery and business continuity, with
redundant systems throughout.
OnePartner will develop data transport interfaces between participating
COSEHC Centers of Excellence and the COSEHC Database. Centers are located
throughout the southeastern United States.
COSEHC Centers of Excellence will have the opportunity to send clinical
data to the COSEHC Database and to participate in OnePartner Research
projects. The OnePartner Research initiative is a cooperative clinical
research program designed to improve the quality and consistency of clinical
research through advanced technology. OnePartner's vision is to improve the
efficiency of clinical trial development, implementation and completion.
