Description:For more than a decade, the focus on information technology has been on capturing and sharing data from the patient within an all-encompassing record, to promote improved longitudinal oversight in the care of the patient. There are both those who agree and disagree as to whether this goal has been met, but it is certainly evolving. A key element to improved patient care has been the automated capture of data from durable medical devices. Medical devices are the source for (mostly) objective data, from imagery to time-series histories of vital signs and spot-assessments of patients.The capture and use of these data to support clinical workflow has been written about and debated thoroughly. Yet, the use of these data for guidance clinically have been targeted in various papers published within respected medical journals, but without coherent focus on the general subject of the clinically actionable benefits of objective medical device data for clinical decision-making purposes. Hence, the uniqueness of this book is in providing a single point-of-capture for the targeted clinical benefits of medical device data - both electronic-health-record-based and real-time - for improved clinical decision making at the point of care, and the use of these data to address and assess specific types of clinical surveillance.This book focuses on the use of objective, continuously collected medical device data for the purpose of identifying patient deterioration, with a primary focus on those data normally obtained from both the higher-acuity care settings on intensive care unit and the lower-acuity settings of general care wards. It includes examples of conditions which demonstrate earlier signs of deterioration including systemic inflammatory response syndrome, opioid-induced respiratory depression, shock induced by systemic failure and more. The book is designed to provide education on the use of these data, by example, for clinical intervention in order to identify examples of how to guide care using automated durable medical device data from higher and lower acuity care settings. The book also includes real-world examples of applications that are of high value to clinical end-users and health systems.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
