All due respect to the idea of changing the beeps to make them more pleasing to the ear, wouldn't it be great to eliminate the 88-95% of alarms that were either non-actionable or errant? The Quiet ICU is a reality. By implementing CalmWave alarms can be reduced, using transparent AI, to only those that are correct and actionable. The resultant boost in efficiency and the operational enhancements that are available after this change, using the alarm data - are astounding! HUGE improvement in patient experience and nurse job satisfaction. Improved outcomes, and reduced attrition. The CalmWave dashboard can even predict which nurses are more likely to quit and recommend changes to help. Just in the last week I've heard stories from ICU nurses about the nightmares they have, the triggering they experience - long after being away from the constant beeping of an ICU! Alarm fatigue is real and it has been all but given up on in most hospitals. This Breakthrough Technology has fixed it. #QuietICU #Nurses https://lnkd.in/gxYuh9Zf
