Philips Healthcare* presents a program in the Better Outcomes webinar series…“The Deadly Deterioration: Surveilling Sepsis & COVID-19“

Reasons for rapid deterioration abound in acute and critical care and building single models to capture them was a perfect initiative to begin a defensive strategy. The frequency that patients go from bad to worse while in our care proclaims the need for more robust and integrated profiles that can be adapted to specific diagnosis and patients, not one singular catchall. This program will offer a combination of adaptable profiles and add the value of simple laboratory integration which can build a wall of defense around the deadly deterioration from Sepsis, COVID-19 and other critical incidences that occur every day at the bedside.

Learning Objectives | After this activity, the participant will be able to:

1. Define predictive profiles for a variety of decompensation states
2. Discuss the role of IT and human factors in the predictive science of deterioration
3. Identify at least two strategies to put in place today to protect and identify patients at risk
