Dr. Gvakharia is a cardiologist

who uses Ignition rom the ER

to access patient histories and

read their earlier tests. “When it comes to

cardiac care, time and inormation are both

critical,” says Dr. Gvarkharia. “With Ignition,

I can quickly access the records that are

on my ofce PC, look at prior EKGs and

echocardiograms, and review prescriptions.

 This gives me the inormation I need to

decide the best course o action.

Ignition is ast, simple, and it never ails me.”

Sometimes, getting to those remote computers 

realy is a ifesaver.
