The University of Washington's Institute of Translational Health Sciences and Seattle Children's Hospital will use the Amalga integration and data aggregation software of Microsoft Corp., Redmond, Wash.

The hospital will use the technology to give real-time consolidated views of patient information from multiple databases. The hospital hopes to identify trends and relevant patients for clinical trials, and better manage hospital operations such as estimating a patient's length of stay.

The university expects to significantly expedite delivery of data sets to researchers. The software will pull appropriate data from university electronic health records, research laboratory and study data management systems. Researchers, for instance, will be able to determine if the university's patient population is sufficient to support a study testing a particular hypothesis.
