ED boarding crisis and overcrowding has hit many ED's hard at the start of 2024. A recent Becker's article highlights the "unprecendencted capacity crisis" at Mass General. Reducing time-to-dispo is one way to impact ED boarding. For critically ill patients with hypotension and shock, rapid, controlled IV fluid delivery can quickly restore perfusion and avoid decompensation and unnecessary interventions and ED/hospital stay. With LifeFlow you can deliver an IV fluid bolus in 1-2 minutes and reassess. Read article: https://ow.ly/9vgz50Qu1CT Learn more about LifeFlow: https://lnkd.in/emejTZuX

Why It Matters

"Inpatient use of GDMT among diverse community-based health systems was lower than rates observed in national quality improvement registries...High discontinuation rates emphasize an unmet need for inpatient and postdischarge strategies to optimize GDMT use." ⏰ It's vital we empower our clinicians to make the most informed decisions, because their decisions are critical to outcomes. #remotepatientmonitoring #ruralhealth #healthcare #medicalinnovation #medtech #startups

#Sepsis is one of the most deadly and costly conditions. But now poor SEP-1 performance could be even costlier for your hospital. Starting January 1, 2024, SEP-1 is included in CMS’s hospital Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) program. VitalStream can help you achieve SEP-1 compliance and personalize fluid administration. The device continuously measures blood pressure, cardiac output, cardiac index, stroke volume and stroke volume index among many other parameters and vital signs. It uses a comfortable, low-pressure finger sensor that can be fit, calibrated and monitoring within 90 seconds. This can make it easy for clinicians to quickly assess patients as soon as they come into the emergency room, where over 80% of hospital sepsis cases are identified. https://lnkd.in/ev5dvfrj #SepsisAwareness #PatientOutcomes #PatientSafety #StopSepsis #sep1 #Hemodynamics #EmergencyMedicine #CriticalCare

Think Like a Physician Webinar Series...  Syncope is a symptom that represents 1 to 3.5% of emergency department visits and about 6% of hospital admissions. This large number of emergency department visits and admissions reflect the varied etiologies of syncope from benign to life-threatening and the high degree of diagnostic uncertainty associated with this symptom. Join us as we discuss the physician’s approach to syncope. Join us: https://buff.ly/3Hn3Zlu

Heart failure is complicated, and every patient scenario is different.
