Automation of Vital Signs Monitoring at Hermitage Medical Clinic
September 2021
Following extensive collaboration between the Anaesthetic team, the PACU team, the IT team and clinical engineering, the HMC took another step towards implementation of an electronic healthcare record. The successful launch of the automated vital signs download onto the Meditech electronic patient record provides accurate and moment by moment information on the patients’ status throughout their surgical journey. It has had the additional benefit of allowing higher quality nurse patient interaction and assessment in PACU by freeing up nursing time previously spent transcribing vital signs from monitor to paper record retrospectively.
