Connected In-Room WorkflowWhile a patient’s position during blood pressure measurement may seem insignificant, variations in positioning and technique can lead to fluctuations of 5 to 15 mmHg in systolic blood pressure.(1) Reviews suggest that even a difference of 5 mmHg can affect close to 16% of patients, either inadvertently placing them on medication or missing a diagnosis of hypertension.(2) This workflow illustrates how a fully integrated point of care ecosystem can help standardize and promote proper blood pressure capture as well as improve the efficiency and accuracy of other vital signs acquisition.- Infection Prevention

Time SavingsThe connected in-room vital signs workflow, when compared with the basic in-room workflow, saves 17 seconds by taking the weight, temperature, pulse and blood pressure while the patient is seated on the exam chair. -
Connected In-Room Vital SignsThe patient is directed to the exam chair to support proper posture for blood pressure measurement. Weight, temperature, pulse and blood pressure are captured via an integrated scale in the exam chair and a connected, automated vital signs device. All patient-related health information can be discussed during the process while the patient sits on the exam chair. All vital signs data can then be imported directly into the EMR, saving time and eliminating manual transcription errors.

Clinical Process Improvement
Use of a self-rooming workflow as well as capturing all vital signs and weight in one location reduces exposure to contagions. RTLS automates contact tracing. The exam chair with a retractable roller base and medical-grade cabinetry can be easily cleaned and disinfected.
Saving a minute per patient equates to 5% of a medical assistant’s time which can cost $1,920 per year in wasted time for each medical assistant (assuming $20/hour, 8 hours/day, 48 weeks/year).
The height-adjustable exam chair decreases the need for manually lifting and repositioning patients.
The height-adjustable exam chair is designed to support proper positioning of the patient for blood pressure measurement.
Connected equipment and devices are operated from the computer screen.
The automated vital signs device and exam chair with built-in scale is fully connected and integrated with the EMR.
Save over a minute per patient by bringing all vital signs acquisition to the point of care including weight and using an automated device.
Use of RTLS for a patient flow optimization and self-rooming can reduce waste and eliminate bottlenecks
