Vital Sync™ Early Warning Score (EWS) App

When responding to patient deterioration, timing can be critical. Early warning scores use multi-parameter patient information so you can identify at-risk patients sooner – up to six hours sooner than monitoring a single parameter.([FOOTNOTE=Maupin JM, Roth DJ, Krapes JM.

The Vital Sync™ early warning score app continuously monitors patient data and automatically calculating a patient’s early warning score. This innovative clinical decision support (CDS) app is designed to make the implementation of an EWS protocol simple, facilitate clinical collaboration, and help you get a head start on escalating care.

The Vital Sync™ EWS app continuously and automatically pulls information from your devices to provide accurate, real-time parameter measurements. And because our app pulls information directly from bedside devices — rather than only the EMR — it provides an “earlier” early warning score than many other systems that rely on the EMR as the sole source for data. This direct-from-the-device capability helps get critical information to you quickly so you can respond to signs of clinical distress quickly.

And it automatically presents information when and where you need it, on the web-enabled devices you use throughout the day on your hospital’s network. This easy remote access to early warning scores and other vital information helps your clinical team prioritize patient care.
