The DripAssist Infusion Rate Monitor for Hospital and Acute Care
®
Within emergency room settings, while sensitive therapies are administered to patients with infusion pumps, less sensitive medications including antibiotics and hydration fluids are often given using gravity IV. These gravity infusions require monitoring by nurses to ensure the fluid is administered at the prescribed rates and volumes.
Infusion pumps aren't always available in the ER because of supply shortages or maintenance backlogs. Monitored gravity IV with DripAssist provides the safe and accurate delivery of medication to patients, giving nurses more control and confidence over the infusion.
The DripAssist Platform allows infusion providers to:
-
SEAMLESSLY monitor and document
the time, rate, location & duration of any gravity infusion
-
Gain IMMEDIATE visibility
into treatment adherence & precision markers
-
Make DATA-DRIVEN decisions
to improve and simplify workflow
