But with budgets tighter than ever, it s essential to identify and deploy solutions that directly address these critical-to-quality initiatives. GE Healthcare CARESCAPE * modular monitors help you tackle these challenges head-on. By generating precise, relevant clinical data and making it available when and where it is needed CARESCAPE modular monitors enable you to balance the workload, improve patient flow and make the best use of clinical staff. CARESCAPE monitors are built with the excellent clinical measurements you have come to expect from GE Healthcare. Clinicians can rely on quality data to make fast, accurate care decisions, which may help improve patient safety and outcomes. Seamless integration with existing devices and IT systems enables smooth connectivity at a lower cost than full system replacement. Plus, patient data gathered from diverse sources is integrated on a single monitoring network, allowing timely delivery and efficient distribution of clinical intelligence when and where it s needed. Patients expect excellence in your performance. You deserve nothing less from your monitors.

When it comes to patient care, your monitor should be as adaptable as you are. Quality care begins with accurate, timely data. CARESCAPE modular monitors give you the flexibility to place patients in the appropriate care area without having to worry about whether the equipment will match the clinical need, enabling you to focus on providing better patient care.

With budgets tighter than ever, it s essential to identify and deploy solutions that directly address critical-to-quality mandates across your organization. From presentation in the ER through the ICU, CCU, OR, and PACU, CARESCAPE modular monitors can adapt to any patient need, helping you improve patient flow, better manage staff workload, and deliver consistent quality care across beds and units. With CARESCAPE modular monitors, every clinician can count on: Proven reliability and data accuracy Built on a foundation of clinical excellence combining the two great traditions of Datex-Ohmeda and Marquette Electronics. Improved data access Acquisition and analysis algorithms along with other clinical intelligence accessible right at the bedside support informed decisions that can contribute to better clinical outcomes. User-friendly interface Intuitive and easy to use, CARESCAPE modular monitors can help reduce training costs, and allow you to focus more on the patient and less on technology. Easy connectivity to other hospital data takes pressure off your IT staff, bringing clinical intelligence to the bedside for more informed decisions at the point of care. Network compatibility A real-time, always-on network backbone ties CARESCAPE modular monitors together for more connected, timely care. Low-cost integration CARESCAPE modular monitors have been designed to leverage your existing monitoring network without the cost and disruption of a full system replacement. Keeping data flowing and improving patient care are top priorities for every biomedical engineer. CARESCAPE modular monitors improve workflow and allow clinicians to make more informed decisions at the point of care. Single-system simplicity CARESCAPE modular monitors eliminate the need for multiple types of monitors by adapting to the needs of any care area or patient. Maximize uptime Software can be changed quickly and monitors can be serviced remotely, helping to prevent outages and improve uptime.

Enhanced connectivity and capabilities improve data flow and decision making while protecting the investments you ve already made. Every care area is a decision area. CARESCAPE modular monitors can promote efficiency at every level during every shift. Integrated clinical intelligence CARESCAPE modular monitors deliver clinical intelligence from multiple sources lab results, medications, MUSE * cardiology information system data and more directly to the bedside, helping you make more informed care decisions. Shift-to-shift consistency All care area team members have access to current, comprehensive clinical intelligence, enabling more efficient shift changes. Accurate reliable clinical measurements CARESCAPE modular monitors offer a wide range of excellent clinical algorithms that help you gain a full understanding of the patient for easy and fast decision making, in every care area. Your organization and your patients can t afford to have IT staff spending critical time and resources learning and relearning multiple network configurations. That s why GE Healthcare is committed to developing solutions that work the way you are used to working and make the most of your existing investments. A single monitoring network required CARESCAPE modular monitors are carried together on one network enabling them to gather, distribute and display critical patient data when and where it is needed. Integrates with existing infrastructure CARESCAPE modular monitors leverage the networks you already use, bringing hospital applications to the bedside for clinical decision support. Increased connectivity leads to greater efficiency and better patient care. Biomedical engineers can take comfort in the fact that CARESCAPE modular monitors provide: Easily configurable monitors CARESCAPE modular monitors ease-of-use reduces complexity across the hospital to help ensure more consistent care and enable staff to work more productively. Remote serviceability CARESCAPE modular monitors can often be easily serviced by our technicians remotely, so you can be up and running faster.

Remove barriers to efficiency, productivity and better patient outcomes. Access to relevant clinical intelligence when and where it is needed supports quality care decisions, streamlines clinical workflow and helps you improve patient outcomes. By leveraging the IT investments you ve already made, the CARESCAPE patient monitoring platform integrates with your existing infrastructure and equipment to maximize connectivity, information access and ROI on your existing technologies.

Lowering the cost of care doesn t have to be a painful operation. Controlling the cost of care starts with the efficient use of resources. To help you keep pace with the rate of innovation, your equipment needs to live longer, be upgradeable, and protect the investments you ve already made in your network infrastructure.

CARESCAPE modular monitors are designed to make the most of the systems you already have and enable new efficiencies that help you save money. Clinicians have more important things to do than worry about technology. CARESCAPE modular monitors put the focus back on patient care. Streamline patient care The right clinical intelligence in the hands of the right person at the right time and place can reduce delays and improve clinical efficiency. Minimize false alarms Sophisticated alarm management system reduces false alarms, which may help reduce alarm fatigue. Reduce training time Monitors that are easy to use and intuitive help save training time and expense. A technology platform that increases your ROI on your existing technologies instead of your effort. Customizable by care area Using a modular monitor that can be adapted for multiple care settings reduces equipment complexity, training and maintenance costs. Fully integrated With a Citrix interface, the CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is designed to integrate information from your existing hospital networks into the monitoring network for display at the bedside. Biomedical engineers can benefit from the flexibility found within the CARESCAPE patient monitoring platform, which maximizes usability and minimizes training and support. Scalable to patient type and acuity Different options for displays, CPUs, parameters and other capabilities give you the flexibility to keep pace with rate of innovation. Upgradable clinical measurements Monitors can be upgraded with new clinical measurements as needed, often without requiring the purchase of all new equipment. Various support and maintenance options Multiple options for configuring and servicing the devices in front of the monitor, remote or offsite reduce the cost of support and maintenance.

A monitor that works as hard as you do. There s nothing more frustrating than patient bottlenecks in the hallway while you wait for rooms with the appropriate monitors. Or not having access to the right patient data at the bedside. GE Healthcare CARESCAPE modular monitors can be adapted to meet the needs of any patient or care environment. Clinical measurements can be added or changed to fit changing patient needs. This level of customization means that one monitor can work for multiple care settings, so patients receive the most appropriate care, wherever they are in the hospital. CARESCAPE modular monitors can be integrated with your existing network environment, incorporating data from systems you already use to provide relevant clinical intelligence when and where it is needed.
