Surveillance

Fetal Surveillance and Alerts enable you to monitor patients where it is most convenient – from a central location, the patient's bedside, other workstations or remotely from home or the physician office.

The CALM Suite allows you to organize your surveillance preferences on several levels, from global views to patient specific views, including color coding and filtering.

Key Features

• Automated Fetal Alerts
  • The alerts are site-configured based on your hospital's protocols. They provide patient-specific fetal alerts for high, low and no data parameters, and have an on/off mute feature.
  • The fetal alerts have a unit-wide back up system to ensure patient safety.
  • Alerts can be configured at the Administrative level by unit, by bed or by patient.
• Central Monitoring
  • Chalkboard
    • Supports up to 20 active beds at a single glance, with up to 100 beds in total.
    • Site customizable headers allow you to include additional data as well as color-coded visual indicators.
    • Customizable views include Bed Selection, "My Patients" and split screen capability.
  • My Patients
    • Select and monitor up to four patients at once with split screen capability.
  • Split Screen
    • Split Screen mode is available in all individual patient views and chalkboards and allows you to monitor your selected "My Patients".
  • Bed Selection
    
    • Filter multi-patient and chalkboard views with Bed Selection. This filter allows you to monitor "My Patients", active beds, selected units or a customized view with your selected number lines per patient in your chalkboard.
  • Multi Tracing View
    
    • View 25 tracings at a glance on screen, with up to 100 tracings available.
    • Create non-interactive workstations, to split up required monitoring by units.

Key Benefits

• Central monitoring gives you a global view of your unit. CALM provides multiple views of beds and fetal tracings in a single screen, enabling clinical staff to quickly assess several patients at once.
• Quickly toggle from global patient views to full screen patient specific data with simple one click navigation.
• Data filtering capabilities aid in the management of complex unit requirements, providing you with the flexibility of viewing information in the way that is most relevant, including: "My Patients", multi-patient views; or selected by unit or patient status.
• Flexible interface provides the ability to color code and modify the order and number of fields, headers and columns, allowing you to quickly view the data that is important to you.
• A compressed electronic fetal monitor (EFM) view allows for quick pattern identification on the tracing. Clicking anywhere on the compressed view enables you to see more detail within a 20-minute enlarged window.
• Fully configurable, HIPAA compliant chalkboard gives you needed flexibility when displaying patient census.
• CALM's fetal alerts are triggered when baby's heart rate exceeds configurable "High-Low" thresholds, providing an additional layer of security to patient monitoring.
• The HL7 interface to the hospital's ADT system reduces administrative time.
