Features

A nurse in a hospital setting uses the HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ app to remote monitor patient vitals.

Easily stay in the know

Keep up with every patient’s condition using near real-time trend and alert data. Available on any web-enabled device or the HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ app.

We take care of the connectivity so you can take care of patients.

  • Remotely monitors patient’s SpO2, respiratory rate, pulse rate, EtCO2, vital signs, and ventilator data
  • Balances patient acuity and clinical resources by enabling respiratory surveillance wherever you are
  • Enables clinicians to easily admit and discharge patients from the HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ platform or mobile app
  • Integrates with existing EMR, Active Directory, and alarm annunciation systems

Spot-checking is not enough

The intermittent manual collection of vital sign measurements alone are no longer sufficient in promoting patient outcomes in medical-surgical units.

  • Spot-checking leaves monitoring gaps: Collecting vitals manually can leave patients unmonitored 96% of the time, making it harder to react quickly when patients need help.1
  • Spot-checking compromises patient safety: Intermittent spot-checking can be insufficient for many patients at high risk of adverse events. Better patient monitoring and response can prevent 97% of respiratory depression closed claims.2

HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ remote patient monitoring provides near real-time trend and alert data, integrates physiological information from your devices, and transmits it to your hospital information systems using the HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ platform and the HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ mobile app.

That’s more than just spot-checking.

Streamline ventilator protocol and reporting adherence with one app.

With HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ remote patient monitoring, the ventilator dashboard (VDB) app lets you access nearly real-time data on a patient’s ventilation status and eliminates manual entries.

  • Use automated protocol compliance based on ARDSNet and VAE protocols to make it easier for respiratory therapists to manage the lung health of ventilated patients.
  • Personalize patient care by leveraging insights surfaced by VDB to tailor ventilator settings for improved care and protocol compliance.
  • Monitor patient ventilation status early to potentially prevent ventilator-associated events.
  • Expedite data retrieval and analysis with many reports, from time on ventilator and patient details to ventilation protocol compliance and ventilation summary.
  • Establish customized parameter thresholds and notifications for individual patients or all patients under your care with insights gathered by VDB.

For patient vitals that are always on hand

You and your team deserve the support of continuous monitoring that helps you more easily take care of your patients. HealthCast™ Vital Sync™ remote patient monitoring system can help you:

  • Improve patient safety: With timely access to accurate patient data from anywhere, patient deterioration will not go unnoticed — even with staff limitations, bedside monitoring inefficiencies, or an influx of sicker patients. Continuous patient monitoring can help save 200,000 lives per year.†,3
  • Empower clinicians: Enable clinicians to streamline patient management, increase efficiency, and improve outcomes while reducing workload and the likelihood of burnout.
  • Manage resources: Hospitals can save $19,940 per bed every year by implementing continuous monitoring3 and optimizing workflows, including reducing reliance on manual charting.
