CareFusion Ventilation System Respiratory therapists and caregivers interact with many disparate systems that don t share data, exacerbating challenges with accessing actionable information at the point of care. That s why caregivers can spend up to 35% of their time per shift on redundant paperwork, 1 and consider logistical challenges as primary contributors to time spent away from patient care. 2 Furthermore, variation in clinical practice is difficult to track and measure for most hospitals. To ensure best practices are followed, hospitals need analytics and reporting systems so that education can be provided, and necessary changes to processes and practices can be made. CareFusion is focused on providing our customers with solutions to address these challenges. Caregivers can spend up to 35% of their time per shift on redundant paperwork. 1
A new system approach to ventilation In today s complex healthcare environment, ensuring respiratory therapists and caregivers have access to actionable information, and an efficient workflow process, can be a challenge. CareFusion offers a new, innovative approach to respiratory care by combining our industry-leading AVEA, VELA and EnVe ventilators with new interoperability and analytics software to better address clinical and operational challenges in patient care. Taking a system approach, the CareFusion Ventilation System helps customers optimize respiratory therapy to improve workflow, operational efficiency, patient care and costs. The Respiratory Documentation Application will help enable more efficient and accurate documentation of ventilator therapy The CareFusion Knowledge Portal for ventilator therapy is an analytics and reporting tool that helps customers measurably improve outcomes for ventilator patients The CareFusion Coordination Engine (CCE) and ventilator connectivity adapter connect your ventilation and HIT systems Implementation services help optimize your ventilation system investments A new system approach to ventilation
Applications to improve workflow and reduce variability The CareFusion Knowledge Portal for ventilator therapy is an analytics and reporting tool that enables hospitals to measure clinical and process variability in ventilator therapy by providing hospitals with actionable information to help clinicians improve patient care. Reporting capabilities focus on ventilator weaning and notifications on important patient trends to measure compliance with best practices. Reducing variation in how respiratory therapy is conducted helps improve safety and lower costs. Initial reports include: Weaning Analytics Future reports include* : Lung Protective Strategies Analytics Ventilator Operational Analytics * These reports are currently unreleased products, and the company may not make them available for commercial sale.

Applications to improve workflow and reduce variability CareFusion Knowledge Portal can be accessed on mobile web devices
Documenting ventilator therapy with accuracy and efficiency The CareFusion Respiratory Documentation Application is a handheld positive patient identification application that automates the collection of ventilator documentation data at the point of care. After collecting this data such as ventilator status, vital signs, breath sounds and clinical observations the clinician signs-off, and it is wirelessly transmitted to your hospital s electronic medical records (EMR) system. By automating this process, documentation of therapy is more accurate and efficient compared to manually entering the information into a computer. The CareFusion Respiratory Documentation Application: Provides an easy-to-use and efficient tool to document ventilator therapy Enables more efficient and accurate documentation of ventilator therapy Collects and stores ventilator data with the CareFusion Coordination Engine Presents ventilator documentation data to third-party EMR applications The CareFusion Ventilation System has been able to help us establish a better, more efficient workflow, so our respiratory therapists can spend more time with patients and less time on paperwork.
