Pulmonary embolism (PE) death and hospitalization rates are rising, according to the American Heart Association, but diagnosing the disease and managing an efficient workflow remain challenging. Time to treatment is long. Communicating with the right team members at the right time is a struggle. But there are technology solutions that can help.
In partnership with the pulmonary experts at Penumbra, and leveraging our own vascular expertise and best-in-class stroke solution, the Rapid pulmonary embolism solution helps hospitals and networks coordinate care faster, reduce time to treatment times, and provide better patient care and outcomes.
PE care coordination is complex. Getting the right physicians and team members aligned more quickly means less time repeating information and more time diagnosing and treating patients.
Using the Rapid pulmonary embolism workflow solution, team members receive notifications of new cases, images, patient status and messages anywhere at any time—via a mobile device, desktop or laptop. Physicians can remotely preview CTPA images and Rapid clinical scan results to make quicker treatment decisions and efficiently inform the care team of status and next steps.
The Rapid pulmonary embolism solution will detect suspected pulmonary embolisms—delivering scan results and source files to team members via PACS, email, the Rapid mobile and web apps.
With automated detection of pulmonary embolisms, physicians can save time by prioritizing cases more quickly.
Faster detection means faster diagnosis and treatment for patients.
RapidAI Insights offers customized reporting to help standardize pulmonary embolism care processes and optimize operational efficiencies. By combining operational, clinical and imaging performance data, RapidAI Insights delivers a deep understanding of patient care decisions, treatment effectiveness, and the value of Rapid platform usage in helping to quickly diagnose and treat PE patients—enabling hospitals to improve processes, intervention and patient outcomes.
