Collective Medical Launches Nationwide Functionality to Identify Sepsis Survivors in Real-time
Summary
SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Collective Medical, delivering the leading ADT-based network for real-time care collaboration, today announced a nationwide rollout to help support sepsis survivors. “We’ve heard from our state, HIE and hospital association partners about the magnitude of sepsis and the absolutely devastating effect it has on both patients and the entire healthcare system,” says Chris Klomp, CEO of Collective Medical. “We’ve already seen the value in the Collective platform throughout the state in not only the emergency department, but in ambulatory settings like behavioral health practices and substance use disorder clinics,” says Greg Van Pelt, president of the OHLC. A next step in the evolution of precision medicine is using Collective notifications to specifically identify and coordinate care for patients who are at high risk for readmissions and/or poor health outcomes. “Massachusetts hospitals are on the front lines of dealing with sepsis and are committed to improving early diagnosis and treatment of this life-threatening condition, particularly when patients come in to an emergency department,” said Patricia Noga, RN, PhD, FAAN, MHA’s Vice President of Clinical Affairs.
