Reference Case: Continuous mobile patient monitoring
Significantly lower investment costs, increased telemetry coverage and efficient project implementation. According to the management team at Memorial Medical Center in Springfield, Illinois, the new Infinity® M300 patient-worn monitoring system offers a wide range of advantages. Above all, the hospital staff values the fact that Dräger's advanced telemetry solution utilizes the hospital's existing Wi-Fi infrastructure resulting in significant cost savings.
Doug Rahn, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, sees the new Infinity M300 telemetry system from Dräger as an enormous technical advance for his hospital. It makes optimal use of hospital space flexible and delivers up-to-date information for telemetry patients, no matter where they may be. Doug Rahn: "When Dräger came to the negotiating table and provided us with the opportunity to continue working with our existing wireless network instead of being locked into the platform of a different provider, this flexibility was astounding to us, and opened up many possibilities for reducing costs." Doug Rahn is convinced that the hospital saved money with this option at the outset, and in ongoing service and maintenance costs.
Dr. David Graham, MD, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer, emphasizes the importance of technology -- not only for patient safety but also for the cost effectiveness of modern hospital operations. Providers must adapt to the technical conditions at the customer's site and develop an affordable integration plan. The solution needs to take the hospital's existing investments into account in order to ensure a faster ROI. Dr. Graham feels Dräger filled this role perfectly during the launch of the Infinity M300 at the Memorial Medical Center.
Donna Crompton, RN, System Director, Clinical Informatics, was a member of the project team which selected and implemented the new telemetry solution. Dräger was the only provider whose telemetry solution could be used with the existing WLAN infrastructure. Above all, she valued the support from Dräger throughout all levels of the implementation -- from planning to after sales support. Donna Crompton estimates that the Dräger solution cost about $400,000 less than the solutions from other suppliers.
Deidra Glisson, RN, Director of Nursing Operations, reports that the nursing staff is very happy with the seamless monitoring of patients. She has also noticed an increase in patient safety because monitoring is not interrupted at any point during the hospital stay, including during transport. Glisson also does not rule out the possibility of positive effects on a patient's recovery time and length of stay with the Infinity M300 -- because the quality of care increases thanks to continuous monitoring as patients increase mobility.
