According to e-Health Insider, the U.K.’s*National Health System Scotland has
purchased a*customized national cardiac surgery information system from Belfast firm
Tomcat. The system*will be used for clinical reporting, scheduling and
patient communication.


The system will replace the five existing legacy systems with one modern one for recording surgery. Tomcat
reportedly has also been asked to design and install a central database for recording local and national surgery
information, which will be used to collect statistics about cardiac care across Scotland.
