]]> 2022-01-31 11:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021080330 Summary of Current Innovation monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021081124 The Vital Stream is quick and easy to apply, and provides continuous advanced hemodynamic monitoring in a non-invasive manner. Vital stream consists of a comfortable finger sensor that picks up the arterial pulse pressure waveform. The encrypted data is then analyzed using the patented pulse decomposition algorithm (PDA) then sent wirelessly to a secure cloud or bluetooth device. Clinicians have the ability to monitor important vital signs minute by minute and patients have the freedom to move about without restrictions from leads or cables connecting them to a bedside monitor. I believe this device could be especially useful in a pandemic situation where triage and time are of the essence and patient conditions are rapidly changing. With limited resources including staff, Vital Stream could be the answer to help limit potentially risky invasive procedures that involve many resources and staff. Additionally, the Vital Stream could help to reduce the transmission of contagious pathogens by eliminating multiple re-useable wires.]]> 2022-01-31 11:52:43 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021081124 Title: Vital Stream monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021081616 Non-Invasive Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring]]> 2022-01-31 11:53:10 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021081616 PROS of Vital Stream monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082160 FDA approved, non-invasive, wireless, monitoring device, that can be placed quickly on a patient to provide real time advanced hemodynamic monitoring. Beneficial to providers by helping them to triage patients quickly and appropriately with the ability to act at the first sign of decompensation. The vital stream can give data that typically would only be available from an invasive line such as an arterial line. Invasive lines such as arterial lines are inserted not without risk and require many resources as well as time. The Vital Stream provides safe, effective and risk free monitoring that can be used in a variety of patient settings.]]> 2022-01-31 11:53:38 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082160 CONS of Vital Stream monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082471 Cons of the Vital Stream include motion artifact issues and the possibility that certain vasoactive medications could hinder reading (Kwon et al., 2021). More research is needed to determine accuracy of results when used in combination with vasopressors, intravenous antihypertensives, or in patients with significant pathology such as an aneurysm (Kwon et al., 2021). ]]> 2022-01-31 11:53:51 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082471 Opinion and Rationale monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082980 With the current COVID pandemic filling Emergency Departments (ED) across the the United States (US), the Vital Stream device could be a solution to monitoring patients in real time while they are waiting for a hospital bed. Providers would be able to see trends and triage patients based on the real time data. Because the device is small and wireless, it would provide more comfort than the typical cords and leads used to monitor patients. For healthcare providers, the Vital Stream is quick to apply and easy to use, saving time and providing valuable data needed to best treat patients. I believe this is a device that could be used in all areas of the hospital as well as for first responders.]]> 2022-01-31 11:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021082980 Using Strengths monicavoelkel https://padlet.com/monicavoelkel/wodonje04i5804fz/wish/2021083346 My Top Five Strengths and how they will help the team:

The VitalStream saves precious time by eliminating wires, simplifying workflow and providing automatic measurement and reporting of key physiological parameters. The VitalStream Cloud enables physicians in the emergency room to remotely access real-time patient data and prepare the treatment plan while the patient is on the way to hospital. Streamline your workflow during admission and triage, stay mobile, and never miss a beat ("Vital Stream", 2022)."
