Eclair Clinical Data Repository (CDR) Shared Laboratory Record information for healthcare providers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is Eclair CDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


Eclair Clinical Data Repository (CDR) is an information service providing secure on-line access to the Awanui Labs patient database of laboratory test records. Only test records performed, or referred by Awanui Labs are in the Eclair CDR database. Eclair CDR is not a central regional data repository. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eclair CDR allows healthcare providers to access their patients\u2019 test results. Healthcare providers are only permitted to access the results of patients in their care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To access the Eclair CDR database healthcare providers must be registered with Awanui Labs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who can register for Eclair CDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Healthcare providers can register from the Hutt Valley District Health Board and Capital and Coast District Health Board, along with community providers. Community providers include health care professionals operating in a community-based setting such as GPs, practice nurses, midwives and specialists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do we provide Eclair CDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The overall objective of Eclair CDR is to improve information sharing among community and hospital-based healthcare professionals, for the benefit of patients. This information sharing reduces the need for duplicate laboratory testing on patients; minimises delays in patient care while tests are re-done or re-sent; and is more time efficient for the staff involved in a patient\u2019s care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I request access to Eclair CDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are a community provider<\/strong> you can request access to Eclair CDR by contacting 0508 37 37 83.  Connection to the Connected Health Network is required for access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are a DHB clinican<\/strong> you can complete the form and return to the Information Services Department, Hutt Valley DHB. Attention: Helpdesk, or CCDHB Laboratory Services IT Department, Level F, Clinical Services Block, Wellington Hospital.  Once your application has been processed you will receive further instructions on how to access the Eclair CDR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be advised of the registration process particular to your healthcare service (e.g. District Health Board, community provider etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All users will be required to complete our CDR Access Registration form which sets out the terms and conditions to using Eclair CDR. This is an agreement between the health providers and Awanui Labs which sets out the obligations around use, access, monitoring of use, and disclosure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who runs Eclair CDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We have designated specialists in our Information Systems team who oversee and administer the Eclair CDR system and registration process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is a patient’s privacy protected?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The confidentiality of our patients’ health information is a central focus of our organisation. We administer our service in accordance with the Health Information Privacy Code 1994 and Privacy Act 1993.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eclair CDR has privacy mechanisms similar to TestSafe (Northern & Canterbury regional repositories) and Compass Health\u2019s Shared Care Record.
