Early Warning Network
EARLY DETECTION AND PREVENTION OF HEALTH DETERIORATION
– TRANSFORM HEALTH CARE PROVISION AND OUTCOMES
FROM REACTIVE TO PROACTIVE CARE
Imagine a Health Care model that continuously monitors a patient’s condition, recognizes negative trends and proactively recommends actions to avoid a crisis event. That’s proactive care, and that’s precisely how the Early Warning Network delivers value.
HOW IT WORKS
The Early Warning Network, uses ThoughtWireOS to streamline the collection, utilization and sharing of clinical data for early detection and prevention of patient/resident health deterioration events. Sophisticated algorithms react to each data update, and care givers are notified when action is required.
BENEFITS OF EARLY WARNING
Patient/Resident
- Personalized care with real time visibility of patient and resident specific context
- Tracking and prioritization of key care milestones
- Enhanced quality of care and safety for patients and residents in the appropriate care setting
Healthcare Providers
- Improved transparency and visibility of clinical metrics
- Improved communication and collaboration
- Optimized care delivery through clinical orchestration
- Improved patient and resident experience & health outcomes through proactive prioritization and mobilization of care resources
Health Systems
- Real time situational awareness of patient and resident journey across the care continuum
- Operational level views for facilities
- Knowledge and information sharing across care continuum
EARLY WARNING VALUE PROPOSITION
Failure to recognize patient
deterioration is a significant issue for
acute care hospitals. The use of early
warning scores that track abnormal
vital signs is a strategy to recognize
the unwell patient. In collaboration
with ThoughtWire, our hospital has
harnessed the power of our electronic
health record to alert health care
professionals in a timely manner. This
has led to reduced cardiac arrests
and unplanned intensive care unit
admissions.”
