Post-Operative Care

Tens of millions of patients undergo major surgeries worldwide each year, and the post-operative phase carries a high risk of complications. Although current standard care includes vital sign observations at regular intervals, patients often deteriorate between measurements to the extent that they require admission to intensive care and/or prolonged hospital stay.

The Patient Status Engine addresses this issue by providing accurate and continuous monitoring of patients following surgery. The integrated continuous Early Warning Scores allow ward staff to quickly and confidently identify post-surgical deterioration, thus enabling early intervention and subsequent reduction in the numbers of transfers to the intensive care ward or critical care facility. The better data provided by the PSE also gives care teams the confidence to get patients moving sooner, leading to faster recovery and earlier discharge.
