No Compromises Where It’s Most Critical

Because of its population of patients with life-threatening illnesses or injuries, decisions and interventions in the ICU must be made quickly to respond to frequent changes in patient condition. Picis Critical Care Manager, part of the CareSuite® family of high-acuity solutions, provides access to the comprehensive, correlated information clinicians require to deliver safe, efficient and cost-effective care in this most demanding of hospital environments.

As a clinician, you will appreciate how Picis helps to address the most challenging issues facing ICU data management.

Clinicians can count on Picis critical care solutions to:

• Optimize patient care and reduce errors. Critical Care Manager presents clinicians with the up-to-date information, decision support tools and advanced data correlation needed to help support informed patient-care decisions. It can also help reduce errors by promoting compliance with hospital-designed guidelines and protocols and industry and government regulatory standards, and by automating drug and fluid-balance calculations.
• Address the shortage of critical care nurses and intensivists. The nationwide nursing shortage is most acute in critical care. And the demand for intensivists currently exceeds the supply; a growing problem. Picis helps to address these challenges by eliminating most manual ICU documentation tasks and by providing the consolidated data clinicians need to help support clinical decisions. This improves job satisfaction and gives your highly skilled professional staff more time for direct patient care.
• Provide a continuous clinical record. The Picis record spans the preoperative clinic, operating room, recovery room, and specialty adult and neonatal intensive care units. This means that a patient’s progress is automatically tracked and charted from one critical area to another. This helps promote the efficient and safe hand-off of patients, which is especially important in critical care where patients are already compromised.
