IMESO-IT

What IMESO-IT does

IMESO-IT GmbH is a privately held German medical software company founded in 1998 and headquartered in Gießen, with secondary offices in Hannover and an operational footprint across Germany and Switzerland. The company develops and sells modular clinical online-documentation software — NarkoData AIMS for anesthesia and ICUData PDMS for intensive care — to hospitals and university medical centers. Its products are built on a message-based HL7 communication architecture (with HL7/FHIR interoperability) deployed across a four-tier stack of modular clients, message forwarders, application servers, and ORACLE/PostgreSQL databases, and are configurable by clinical administrators without programming knowledge.

The company monetizes through enterprise software licensing combined with comprehensive professional services — consulting, configuration, implementation, training, and 24/7 support — delivered via direct enterprise sales to hospital customers. Its suite includes more than a dozen specialized modules covering preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative anesthesia workflows, ICU documentation, DRG coding, statistics, image documentation, letter generation, and medical-device data integration. Distribution is exclusively direct, with pipeline generation supported through industry conferences (DMEA, DIVI) and an annual Admin Workshop that doubles as a customer community event.

The business is founder-led (originally by Dr. med. Matthias Benson and Dr. Achim Michael Backofen) and currently managed by Claudia Hermes. IMESO-IT holds multiple regulatory and quality certifications relevant to German hospital procurement, including DIN EN ISO 13485 (medical device QMS), DIN EN ISO/IEC 27001 (information security), DIN EN ISO 9001, gematik ISiK certification for interoperable data exchange under §373 SGB V, and the BSFZ-Siegel für Innovationskompetenz. No external funding rounds, acquisitions, or institutional investors have been disclosed.

Core offering

IMESO-IT develops, licenses, and supports clinical online documentation software for hospitals in Germany and Switzerland. Its core products are NarkoData AIMS (Anesthesia Information Management System) for pre-, intra-, and postoperative anesthesia documentation and ICUData PDMS (Patient Data Management System) for adult, pediatric, neonatal, intermediate care, and emergency department documentation. Both products are built on an HL7 message-based four-tier architecture with ORACLE/PostgreSQL backends, and are complemented by implementation, configuration, training, and 24/7 support services.

Product overview

IMESO-IT offers a modular software suite for clinical online documentation, consisting of two core products: NarkoData AIMS (Anesthesia Information Management System) for pre-, intra-, and postoperative anesthesia documentation, and ICUData PDMS (Patient Data Management System) for intensive care and interdisciplinary patient documentation. Both products are built on HL7 messaging standard for internal communication and external integration. The suite includes multiple workflow modules such as ICUFiles for clinical processes, Bilddokumentation for image documentation, Briefschreibung for letter writing, Scoring for automated score calculation, DRG-Arbeitsplatz for DRG coding, and Statistik for statistical evaluations. NarkoData includes specialized modules for preoperative (NarkoPraeMed), intraoperative (Narko), postoperative (NarkoPostMed) documentation, NarkoManager for OR overview, NarkoStatistik for anesthesia statistics, and MedDeviceData for medical device integration. The software emphasizes a single graphical time-dependent interdisciplinary user interface, configurability without programming knowledge, and HL7-based interoperability with hospital information systems and medical devices.
