Bedside Monitoring and Centralized Unit Paent Management System

As the length of inpaent-stays become shorter, close scruny of readmission rates isincreasingly becoming the norm, parcularly with the growing numbers of elderly paentsrequiring acute hospital care. This is one of the challenges that hospital and post acute carefacility managers face. These potenally preventable readmissions and other adverse eventsare system wide challenges that are currently being addressed by all providers in all sengs.

A key element in prevenng readmissions is the early detecon and mely intervenon incases of paent deterioraon. Heart and respiratory rate are clinically proven to be eecveearly indicators of paent deterioraon. (Chaboyer, W et al, Am J Crit Care. 2008; 17: 255-263)

The EarlySense system is an innovave paent status monitoring soluon that measures andalerts on changes in these key parameters.

The EarlySense system provides an ideal soluon for connuous, contact-free bedsidemonitoring of key parameters: Respiraon Rate, Heart Rate, Movement and Paent Turnstatus. Real me alerts are delivered to the nurse control staon and directly to caregiversusing handheld devices to enable mely intervenon by medical sta.

The system’s built-in management tools include a wide range of useful reports on the statusof long-term care paents at all mes. These also include providing alerts for turn scheduledocumentaon and vericaon of turns preformed by the sta, to support compliance withthe instuon’s pressure ulcer prevenon protocol. The EarlySense system has the potenal toempower the sta to improve paent safety and clinical outcomes – leading to enhancementof residents’ and nurses’ sasfacon and lower costs.

Implementaon of the system in hospitals showed that using connuous monitoring led tobeer compliance with hospital policies and the clinical sta was able to decrease the rate of various adverse events such as paents’ falls and development of in-hospital pressure ulcers.The EarlySense system is designed to integrate with current workow and with minimaloverhead.

“Readmissions are a demonstrable problem. An April 2009 New England Journal of Medicine study found that nearly one in every ve Medicare paents admied to ahospital in a year is readmied within 30 days. By 90 days, the rate increases to one inthree. The cost to Medicare of these readmissions alone was $18 billion in 2007.” Amy E. Boutwell, MD, “Reduced Readmissions: Reform’s Low-Hanging Fruit,” Healthcare Execuve (Mar /Apr 2011)
