CHNC partners with Velos on multicenter registry focused on improving care of infants with serious diseases


FREMONT, Calif. and KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Children's Hospitals Neonatal Consortium (CHNC) has selected Velos and its flagship technology platform Velos eResearch for their visionary data management and multicenter initiatives.

"With its comprehensive functionality and configurability, we believe Velos eResearch will be a strong fit for CHNC and its member organizations.  he project will enable us to better provide key outcome metrics, simplify data access, help us improve care, advocate for medically-complex infants, and provide important information for their families."
