Streamlined barcode workflow and wireless acquisition wiresless acquisition module Meets strict security protocols from the U.S. Department of Defense Send data directly to your data management system or EMR
One simple solution for continuous, interval and spot check monitoring that's designed to help you capture vital patient data.
With more patients on your Med-Surg floor that are sicker than they used to be, you need a vital signs solution that can continuously monitor your patients, even when you can’t. The Welch Allyn® Connex® Vital Signs Monitor can help. Beyond measuring patient vital signs, the Connex Vital Signs Monitor also includes basic cardiac monitoring. ECG functionality provides waveform visualization and immediate notifications for lethal cardiac arrhythmias so you can closely monitor the patients who need it most.
Intervene Early to Keep Patient Safe
New technologies like smart beds, continuous monitoring devices, Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and mobile devices have revolutionized the way that medical data is collected and communicated. Yet the value of healthcare technologies are not truly working best, until they are working seamlessly together. Communicate actionable patient insights at the point of care to improve patient safety with Hillrom™ Smart Device Connectivity.
Unrecognized patient deterioration can lead to mortality that may affect as many as 17% of hospital admissions.* Since heart rate and respiratory rate are the two most important predictors of such adverse events,** early intervention is crucial to keeping patients safe. The Centrella® Smart+ bed is the only med-surg bed that comes standard with contact-free, continuous monitoring. Contact-free, continuous monitoring captures the two key vitals of respiratory rate and heart rate and 2x per second. When these vital signs fall outside set parameters, an alert is sent to the caregiver via nurse call and can also be sent to their mobile phones. These alerts can help caregivers intervene earlier to help reduce adverse events.
Identify signs of patient deterioration Intervene early Help promote patient safety
Supporting the changing needs of healthcare facilities—so you can deliver elevated care.
