ACCELERATE PATIENT RECOVERY

Reduce Hospital Length of Stay

When it comes to hospital length of stay, shorter is better.

It’s better for patients, who want to avoid complications like respiratory infections¹ and pressure injuries² that are common during immobility. And it’s better for hospitals, where the average ICU stay of 6-9 days³ can cost up to $32,419.⁴

Proven mobility tools and protocols can help you get your patients moving earlier and often, so they can recover faster. They’ve helped hospitals like yours see:

Detect Patient Deterioration Earlier

Signs of deterioration can be detected as early as 6 to 8 hours before an event or arrest.⁷ 

With the right intelligence, keeping your patients on the path to recovery isn’t a question of if—but when. Continuous patient monitoring can help you spot indicators before they become emergencies. In fact, it’s been shown to help hospitals achieve:

Reduce Pressure Injuries

When you’re helping patients recover, the last thing you need is a pressure injury working against you.

Yet every year, in the average 100-bed facility, 170 patients will acquire a pressure injury. That can add up to longer lengths of stay for them—and up to nearly $2M in costs for you.^{9, 10}

Better, faster healing is possible with the right therapeutic surfaces. And the results speak for themselves:

Reduce Postoperative Pulmonary Complications

From pneumonia to lung collapse, pulmonary complications in critical care are serious, common—and costly.

A pulmonary complication can increase a hospital stay by as much as eight days,14 costing up to $62,704 per patient.¹⁴

Respiratory therapy, together with clinically proven solutions, can help reduce postoperative pulmonary complications. In fact, they’ve been shown to help hospitals achieve:

Maintain Patient Mobility and Prevent Falls

You can help your patients avoid falls in the ICU, med-surg and beyond while building the strength and stamina they need prior to discharge. 

Patient falls are the most frequently reported adverse¹⁶ incidents in adult inpatient units.¹⁷ Worse yet, patients who have fallen are:
