According to Wajdi AlDaghma, director, Welch Allyn Middle East, thesolutions Welch Allyn is featuring at HIMSS Middle East 12 thisweek are a direct result of the growing demand for connected andconfigurable solutions that anticipate and respond to uniquehealthcare provider needs in the region. The products offereasy-to-use features and options that provide clinicians withaccess to information they need to provide the best possiblepatient care. "The solutions we are featuring this week at HIMSS MiddleEast 12 allow providers to quickly and efficiently collect andrecord patients" vital signs, which is important infast-paced hospital settings," said AlDaghma. "We havea commitment to fostering high-performance healthcare environments,and our platform-based devices help reduce the chance oftranscription errors and the time required to collect patientdata—as well as providing all clinicians near-instant accessto patient vital signs records." Welch Allyn Connex® Integrated Wall System The Welch Allyn Connex® Integrated Wall System (IWS)incorporates nearly 100 years of innovation into one unit includingtraditional Welch Allyn physical assessment instruments—anintegrated ophthalmoscope and otoscope—and twenty-firstcentury vital signs documentation technology with the Connex®Vital Signs Monitor (VSM). The Connex VSM is a full-color,touch-screen device providing automatic measurements such as heartrate, blood pressure, temperature, pulse oximetry, weight and TotalHemoglobin; manual parameters such as respiration, height and painlevel; and modifiers such as body position, O2 therapy details andothers. By incorporating Connex VSM technology into the Connex IWS, thewall unit can be configured for spot-check, monitoring withintervals or triage modes and is ideal for sites using an EMR. TheConnex IWS significantly reduces time spent on manual transcriptionand instances of human error with automatic data transfer to anEMR. And it offers the ability for patient vital signs records tobe viewed anytime, anywhere on a network. The customizable wallsystem supports both Welch Allyn and its manufacturingpartners" technology, and its open architecture makes it agreat investment, as upgrades and new technology can be added asthey become available. Without digital solutions such as these, studies have shown that10,000 omission and/or transcription errors can occur per year fora typical 200-bed facility in the United States; 8,000 hours werewasted with manual vital sign documentation; and more than $250,000was lost in productivity due to lack of access to vitals. Theavailability of automated systems that capture and wirelesslytransmit patient data minimizes all of these issues. "Scalability is having a profound impact on the way wedevelop our products," added AlDaghma. "Accuracy,workflow and patient safety are primary concerns in hospitals inthe Middle East and around the world. We are designingplatform-based solutions that offer greater efficiency and moreconfigurability options to help shape the future of healthcaredelivery beyond traditional approaches to connect, manage, andshare patient information—and improve patient care in theprocess."
