In 2020, for every 1,000 elective surgical procedures, an average of 3.8 adult patients developed postoperative sepsis. Those aged 65 and older faced a greater risk-for every 1,000 elective surgical procedures, an average of 4.3 patients developed sepsis.

🚀𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗜𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲: 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 & 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴🌟 𝕳𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖔𝖗𝖞: Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) has been a 𝓰𝓪𝓶𝓮-𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓰𝓮𝓻 in healthcare delivery. Born out of the need for remote health assessments during NASA’s space missions in the 1960s, RPM has grown into a vital part of modern healthcare systems. The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated its adoption, leading to increased investment in telehealth infrastructure and the widespread use of wearable devices for continuous patient monitoring. 𝕭𝖊𝖓𝖊𝖋𝖎𝖙𝖘: RPM offers numerous benefits for both patients and healthcare providers. It allows for early detection of health anomalies and timely interventions, improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. Patients enjoy the convenience of receiving care at home, while healthcare providers can manage chronic diseases more efficiently with real-time data. 𝕮𝖍𝖆𝖑𝖑𝖊𝖓𝖌𝖊𝖘: However, RPM also presents challenges. Data security and patient privacy are primary concerns, and healthcare providers must navigate complex regulations to implement RPM systems effectively. Adequate training for both healthcare professionals and patients is also essential to ensure the technology is used correctly and efficiently. 𝕺𝖕𝖕𝖔𝖗𝖙𝖚𝖓𝖎𝖙𝖎𝖊𝖘: Several key technologies are driving the growth of RPM. Wearable devices enable the continuous tracking of vital signs, and advanced data analytics, including AI and machine learning, provide actionable insights from the collected data. Telehealth platforms and mobile applications facilitate real-time communication between patients and providers, enhancing the RPM experience. 𝕴𝖒𝖕𝖑𝖊𝖒𝖊𝖓𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖎𝖔𝖓: Implementing RPM requires careful planning and adherence to best practices. This includes selecting appropriate RPM technologies, providing training for staff and patients, establishing clear protocols for data management and security, and integrating RPM systems with existing electronic health records. The future of RPM is promising, with ongoing technological advancements and increasing adoption. 𝕺𝖚𝖙𝖑𝖔𝖔𝖐: The global RPM market is expected to grow significantly, driven by the need for efficient and cost-effective healthcare solutions. As RPM continues to evolve, it will play a crucial role in preventive healthcare, enabling early intervention and improving overall health outcomes. 𝕮𝖔𝖓𝖈𝖑𝖚𝖘𝖎𝖔𝖓: In conclusion, RPM is revolutionizing healthcare by enabling continuous, proactive, and personalized patient care. Despite its challenges, the benefits of RPM for both patients and providers are substantial, and its future is bright with ongoing technological innovations and increasing adoption. #HealthcareInnovation #Telehealth #RemotePatientMonitoring

Hospitals’ functional characteristics cluster into 4 levels of pediatric capability, which can be approximated by counting the number and types of capabilities at a hospital, this study’s findings suggest. https://ja.ma/467jtoZ

Patients and caregivers strongly prefer high-quality, home-based post-acute care vs facility-based care. Targeted support for disadvantaged groups facing constraints is essential to ensure equitable access. https://ja.ma/3Ux9S6O

In high-risk patients who had undergone PCI presenting with or without ACS, there was no incremental benefit from routine surveillance stress-testing as compared with standard-care alone during follow-up. https://ja.ma/3VEI27Z

Great work by my colleague Ankur Sethi MBBS FACC, published in Structural Heart and featured in Cardiovascular Business, that highlights the need for timely #TAVR in order to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs. Key findings: - Delaying TAVR in severe #aorticstenosis (AS) patients increases healthcare costs by $10,000 per year.** - Delays due to incomplete evaluations, referral issues, and systemic barriers lead to higher costs and increased mortality risk.
