Early detection

Using Clinical Decision Support Tools

Severe sepsis or septic shock is the leading cause of death in non-cardiac ICUs.1

 

ProtocolWatch incorporates the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guide-lines into the bedside monitor supporting clinicians to detect and treat sepsis more quickly.

 

With ProtocolWatch and other screen trends clinicians can rapidly identify significant changes in patient status, saving time and speeding interventions.
