Improving Care

 "Here is a simple, unbiased and automatic way to effectively track specific events and use that information to analyze and improve care delivery."

Automating Patient Flow

"We looked at many possible ways to enter real time location and each had significant drawbacks, particularly when compared to a solution that is essentially hands-off from start to finish. I am a firm believer in indoor positioning. Everyone knows where each patient is and who is ready for what — and we've just begun to tap into the potential of the Radianse system."

Patient Throughput Solution

Find Your Patients When They Need You – And You Need Them

Radianse's Patient Throughput Solution lets you locate any patient easily, immediately and precisely. Radianse room-level location is proven to be 100% accurate in a third-party, double-blind, peer-reviewed study.

Patient tracking software from Radianse lets you see how your patients move across your hospital and through their care pathway. Find an ambulatory patient for a routine procedure or emergency care. Intervene if a patient wanders and becomes disoriented. Measure and manage care processes.

Industry-leading, active-RFID patient tracking tags, a simple web Fast Find interface, and the intelligence of the Radianse real time location system (RTLS) help you improve patient flow and safety and effectiveness. Expect improved satisfaction from day one and a return on investment in months.

• Quickly locate patients
• Ensure the right patients are in the right place for the right procedures
• Easily track transport patients and equipment to be retrieved
• Notify personnel when patients move outside preset boundaries
• Automate, measure and improve patient flow

Patient Throughput - Safety and Effectiveness

The Annals of Emergency Medicine recently published a study concluding that longer wait times in emergency departments were directly associated with 5% greater odds of inpatient death. When you can always know where your patients are located, there are tremendous opportunities to improve patient throughput which can reduce patient wait times, improve patient safety and optimize clinical effectiveness.

From the moment of admission, a patient wearing a Radianse ID-tag is always visible to the care team. With a simple query of Radianse Reveal Patient Tracking, an authorized:

• physician can find a patient during rounds
• nurse can find a patient for time-sensitive therapies or medication
• specialist can see that a patient is on the way for a procedure

When both patients and clinical teams are covered by a Radianse real time location system, the Radianse Smart Sense technology enables an objective measure of patient/provider interactions. It's an unbiased and accurate way to collect true measures of patient care processes, which can answer questions such as:

• Are patients waiting too long for procedures to begin?
• What bottlenecks are impeding care?
• Are we under-utilizing resources, or stretching our staff too far?

Patient Throughput - Patient Flow

Improve the patient experience

Radianse Reveal Patient Throughput saves time and increases satisfaction as it contributes to an improved patient experience.

As part of patient flow and workflow applications, a Radianse real time location system automatically updates patient location, virtually eliminating the need for manual data entry.

Automatic updates of patient location also contribute to a care team's ability to:

• Better communicate with each other and patients' families regarding patient status
• Better coordinate care processes
• Identify and address patient flow bottlenecks
• Reduce patient wait times
• Minimize unpredictability
• Increase direct care time with patients
• Increase staff satisfaction and efficiency

Real time patient tracking is a cost-effective tool for hospitals committed to keeping patients on an optimal care pathway from triage to transfer and admission to discharge.
