InVita Healthcare Technologies Announces Successful Launch of iReferral with the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the Arkansas Regional Organ Recovery Agency to Automate Organ and Tissue Donor Referrals

iReferral® streamlines the referral process by automating the identification of potential organ and tissue donors in the hospital and electronically notifying the Organ Procurement Organization (OPO).

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) partnered with InVita Healthcare Technologies (InVita) and Arkansas Regional Organ Recovery Agency (ARORA), the federally designated OPO serving nearly the entire state of Arkansas, to successfully launch iReferral to improve the critical first step of the life-saving organ and tissue transplantation workflow.

This achievement will save countless hours for those involved in the referral process and ultimately save more lives.  

Using advanced technology, iReferral replaces the outdated and time-consuming process of telephonic organ and tissue donor notification to a hospital’s federally designated OPO with a modern, real-time, and secure electronic interface. This interoperability directly delivers the donor referral to iTransplant®, the OPO’s electronic donor management record provided by InVita, allowing nurses to focus their valuable time on providing care and support for their critically ill patients and families while supporting the life-saving mission of organ and tissue donation and transplantation.

“This effort builds on UAMS’ long partnership with ARORA to provide life-saving organ and tissue donations to transplant recipients,” said Dr. David Warner, Chairman of CORE (Committed to Organ, Tissue, and Eye Recovery Education) Committee, UAMS. “By collaborating with InVita, we are using technology to ensure we can properly identify all potential donors and make the referral process more efficient. This allows physicians and nurses to spend more time with patients, where they are most needed.”

The timely and direct delivery of a potential donor from the hospital’s electronic health record system directly to the OPO’s iTransplant system via iReferral provides the OPO with appropriate notice to ensure that all families are offered the opportunity to make a decision that will save lives through organ and tissue donation. As hundreds of hospitals across the country partner with their designated OPO to adopt this technology, ARORA continues to be an innovative leader as this is their third hospital system implementation of this key technology.

“We are excited to be collaborating with UAMS in our recent launch of iReferral,” said Jeremy Lemmons, Manager of Hospital Development, ARORA. “This has proven to be a great asset in its ability to ease the burden on the healthcare providers while allowing ARORA to maximize its impact on those waiting on a life-saving transplant.”

“This achievement will save countless hours for those involved in the referral process and ultimately save more lives through organ and tissue donation,” said Amelia Nabholz, Director of Hospital Development, ARORA.

With more than 100,000 individuals awaiting a life-saving organ, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regulations mandate hospitals refer all potential organ and tissue donors to their federally designated OPO. Each donor has the ability to save up to eight (8) lives through organ transplantation and enhance over seventy-five (75) more through tissue donation. iReferral directly improves regulatory compliance to these federal mandates that are in place to provide hope to those waiting for a life-saving organ and/or tissue transplant.

“It is our long-standing goal at InVita to provide innovative technology solutions for our partners that improve process inefficiencies and regulatory compliance,” said Wade Liu, InVita Healthcare Technology’s Chief Product Officer and General Manager of its Donation and Transplant Division. “We’re honored to support the mission of ensuring all donors and families have the opportunity to donate life to the many waiting and in need.”

CHENGDU, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Eoptolink Technology Inc., Ltd. (SZSE: 300502), a leading innovator and provider of advanced optical transceiver solutions, announces the release of its OSFP 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2xFR4 transceivers enabling the next generation high bandwidth networks for AI/ML clusters and cloud datacenters.

Eoptolink 1.6T OSFP transceivers have 8 electrical host interfacing lanes and 8 optical lanes operating at 212.5Gb/s (106GB with PAM4). Equipped with the industry’s latest DSP, these modules support transmission distances of up to 2km without the need to regenerate the FEC. The 1.6T DR8 and DR8-2 modules comes with either one MPO-16 adapter for point-to-point (P2P) connections or two MPO-12 adapters for 2x800G breakout applications. The 1.6T 2xFR4 modules are designed with a dual duplex LC connector running with 2 pairs of fibers only, which could help users to save fiber resources compared to DR8 and DR8-2 versions.

The 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2FR4 Portfolio consists of: – 

EOLO-13T-5H-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 1×1.6TbE, 500m, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-5H-XDX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 2x800GbE, 500m, Dual MPO-12
EOLO-13T-02-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 1×1.6TbE, 2km, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-02-XDX     OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 2x800GbE, 2km, Dual MPO-12
EOLO-16T-02-XXX     OSFP 1.6T 2FR4, 2x800GbE, 2km, Dual Duplex LC

Eoptolink OSFP 1.6T transceivers feature both EML and SiPh-based solutions, and testing has demonstrated excellent performance. “We are very proud of our optical and RF design teams, says Sean Davies, VP Sales, Eoptolink Technology Inc., Ltd. “Our 1.6T OSFP modules do not need an additional FEC on the optical side and this results in lower latency and power consumption of the modules simplifying the complete system and helping our AI and cloud customers in their work.”

TULUFAN, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On September 19, employees of State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company came to State Power Investment Zhongli Tenghui Qiquanhu Photovoltaic Power Station to provide comprehensive technical support and guidance for new energy enterprises.

Seven wind power and photovoltaic power generation enterprises, including Xinjiang Jize Power Generation Company in Tulufan, have obtained 6.035 million KWH of grid electricity by purchasing 6,035 “green certificates” to achieve “green electricity – green electricity” and achieve green energy use in the whole link of new energy power generation.

The green power certificate, referred to as “green certificate”, is the only certificate that identifies the production and consumption of renewable energy power. Promoting the all-green operation of new energy power generation is an important measure to promote the green consumption of renewable energy.

“Before, we were just ‘producers’ of green electricity. Now the buyers of green certificates have become green electricity consumers, and the production process is fully green.” Qiquan Lake photovoltaic power station inspection officer Forzati Dilishati said.

Since the launch of the green electricity and green certificate market, State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company has actively promoted green electricity trading, promoted the supply of green electricity and green certificates in multiple scenarios, promoted the rapid promotion and popularization of related services in Tulufan, and helped build a new power system.

In the first eight months of this year, the cumulative volume of green electricity transactions in Xinjiang reached 1.174 billion KWH, 93.83 times that of the whole year of 2022.
