Despite their frequency, airway treatment procedures are difficult to perform and are high-risk. Patient complications including cardiac events, dental injury and even death are common, adding billions of dollars annually to the US healthcare system; while also placing healthcare providers at risk of infectious disease exposure. The industry needs a new standard of care. The industry needs Epic. Learn more here: epicairwaysystems.com #epicairwaysystems #airwaymanagement

#DYK that today is #WorldPatientSafetyDay Patient harm is often caused by adverse events and it stands as one of the leading causes of patient mortality and morbidity all over the world. Many of these deaths due to adverse events are preventable with improved education and care. With the purpose of increasing local and global awareness about the risks and impact that unsafe practices have on people, World Patient Safety Day is here!

New data indicates that hospitals are making significant strides in improving patient experience and reducing preventable infections post-pandemic. Patient experience metrics, which had declined sharply, are showing positive trends, especially in clinician communication and discharge information. Additionally, a substantial decrease in infections like MRSA, CAUTIs, and CLABSIs is evident, with 92% of hospitals improving in at least one infection category since 2022. It's clear we're moving in the right direction, but continuous effort is essential to maintain and accelerate these improvements. #PatientSafety #HealthcareQuality #InfectionPrevention

The majority of #sepsis cases are community-onset, but the CDC has recently defined a new condition called hospital-onset sepsis. Read about the specific challenges that hospital-onset sepsis presents, as well as how to identify and manage it: https://hubs.la/Q02BPgtC0

In situations like this, where a patient presented with unpredictable challenges like severe ICAD (intracranial atherosclerotic disease), procedural adjustability and speed are equally crucial for patient safety. Only TIGER can enable both. Result: First-pass mTICI 2b Case courtesy of Dr. Seth C.-C Hu #TIGERTRIEVER #HandleIt #ExpandWhatsPossible #stroke #thrombectomy
