Gold Standard Diagnostics ThunderBolt
Also known as ThunderBolt ELISA Analyzer, ThunderBolt ELISA-CLIA Analyzer.
ConnectivityWise puts every ThunderBolt result in your EHR the moment the run finishes and tells your staff it's ready. One simple price per location covers it, along with every other instrument you run.
Every ThunderBolt result, in your EHR
ConnectivityWise supports the ThunderBolt's test menu. Results reach your EHR the moment each run finishes, and your staff is notified. We'll confirm the exact panels your ThunderBolt runs during implementation.
About the ThunderBolt EIA/CLIA Analyzer
The ThunderBolt is a fully automated, two-plate microplate processor that runs ELISA (EIA) and chemiluminescence (CLIA) assays. It handles every step of a plate-based assay automatically: premixing, dilution (direct in-well, up to 1:100), dispensing, incubation, shaking, washing, reading, and final data handling. It loads up to 192 primary sample tubes plus 16 custom reagent positions. Detection is by a five-filter spectrophotometer (405, 450, 490, 550, and 630 nm) and, in the CLIA configuration, a chemiluminescence photomultiplier tube. It is an open, fully customizable platform: the test menu is whatever validated ELISA or CLIA protocols the laboratory loads, rather than a fixed panel set. Learn more about the instrument at the manufacturer's product page.
Why practices connect the ThunderBolt
A plate run finishes and produces results for a whole batch of patients at once, a natural point for transcription errors to creep in. Connecting the ThunderBolt means each result is filed to the right patient's chart as the batch completes and staff are notified, instead of being read off a plate map and keyed in by hand.
Send ThunderBolt results to your EHR
Results from the ThunderBolt file into whichever EHR you run, matched to the order where you use one. We connect to any EHR or EMR that accepts results.
ThunderBolt connectivity questions
Can the ThunderBolt connect to my EHR?
Yes. ConnectivityWise interfaces the Gold Standard Diagnostics ThunderBolt and posts its results into your EHR automatically, matched to the order where you use one, or filed directly where you don't. Nobody retypes a value.
Which EHRs can the ThunderBolt send results to?
Any EHR or EMR that accepts results, including Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, Oracle Health, Greenway, and PointClickCare. Automatic result upload works with any order and results workflow.
Does quality control from the ThunderBolt get captured?
ConnectivityWise captures quality control results alongside patient results, so your CLIA records are complete when an inspector asks. What a given instrument reports varies by device, so we confirm exactly what your ThunderBolt emits during implementation.
What does it take to connect a ThunderBolt?
The Data Sync Agent, one small install on any Windows computer in your organization, collects results from the instrument and syncs them securely to the ConnectivityWise cloud. A single installation covers every instrument and location you have, and a named human guides the setup and validation end to end.
