The new system, called CAATi, already has Food and Drug Administration clearance and is being marketed by Milpitas, CA-based ADAC. It is designed to provide online access to all catheterization procedures and reports from anywhere on a hospital network. Physicians outside the hospital will also be able to access patient information using CAATis Web-based server.
