The Potential of Adaptable Acuity
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the healthcare industry continues to face significant challenges, including an aging population and workforce shortages.¹ ² In light of these recent challenges, acuity adaptable care is re-emerging as a way to potentially improve patient outcomes and satisfaction while optimizing hospital resources. Acuity adaptable care environments have the ability to adapt to each patient's needs and acuity levels as they fluctuate. This not only reduces the risk of errors and gaps in communication that occur with transfers, but it may also decrease the length of stay and rates of infection. In this podcast, Faye Aebly, Clinical Development Manager for GE HealthCare, and Dr. Maurizio Cecconi, head of the anesthesia and intensive care unit at Humanitas Research Hospital and Humanitas University in Milan, discuss the opportunities and challenges of acuity adaptable care, as well as the role of technology in supporting the transition.
An Introduction GE HealthCare Patient Care Solutions
Patient care demands are at an all-time high, but the healthcare workforce faces significant shortages. Providers are also inundated with data that may not be in real time or specific enough to improve patient care. What if there were an easy way to cut through the noise and gain valuable insights into the patient's health? That's a key question that GE HealthCare Patient Care Solutions is actively working to answer.
GE HealthCare aims to not only make data patient-centric, but to ensure it is delivered to the right clinician at the right time. Data must be integrated in a meaningful way to avoid cognitive overload, but it must also be tailored to specific use cases. More information isn't the answer—turning data into insights is.
Technology Partnerships are Key to Advancing Healthcare Innovation
Interoperability plays a critical role in enabling data exchange between healthcare providers and information systems. Increasingly, companies in the medical technology industry are becoming open to partnerships and vendor agnosticism. This can bring disparate information together in an easily digestible format for clinicians, enabling them to make faster decisions during critical moments. Ultimately, this collaborative approach helps increase the speed of innovation in a time when health care urgently needs impactful solutions. In this discussion, we focus on the role of industry partnerships in advancing patient monitoring flexibility.
Current Views on Health Data Access and Usability
Innovations in health care technologies are generally accompanied with new clinical data. In many instances, this increases the data available to providers at the point of care. While the intent of sharing new data is to support clinical decision making, it has the potential to create ‘noise’ given the volume of data care providers must process minute-by-minute. This ‘noise’ can have the opposite effect of what is intended by saturating the provider’s cognitive resources. As health care technology designers seek to optimize the usability of new technologies, they must help convert clinical data into actionable insights and reduce the cognitive burden placed on care providers.
The Importance of Patient Data in Hospital Through Home
Effective longitudinal care depends on having a holistic view of the patient across their care journey. While advances in healthcare technology continue to generate new and meaningful longitudinal care data points, bringing those data together from a disparate collection of devices and systems into a single view and unlocking patient-centric insights is key. To mine these insights, healthcare technology partners must continue innovating beyond interoperability and bidirectional data sharing.
Optimizing Workflows in Remote Patient Care
Increasingly, care delivery models seek to optimize the balance of in-hospital and out-of-hospital care. Shifting a greater proportion of the care journey out-of-hospital is intended to manage stresses placed on the health care system caused by increased patient complexity, the rising cost of care, and staffing shortages. In this conversation, we specifically consider advances in remote cardiac patient management. We discuss how integrating the increasing volume of ambulatory ECG data into existing optimized workflows and information systems can reduce emergency room burden and hospital bed usage.

Admission pathways of ACS patients
The ECG provides critical information that assists in establishing the diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome and determining the treatment strategy. In acute coronary syndrome, common ECG abnormalities include T-wave tenting or inversion, ST-segment elevation or depression (including J-point elevation in multiple leads), and pathologic Q waves. ECG risk stratification allows appropriate referral of patients to a chest pain center or, even, to a catheterization laboratory.
Thus, in this podcast Dr. Cosentino aims at improving your confidence in the interpretation of ECG during a suspected or confirmed acute coronary syndrome. A systematic approach to ECG analysis is essential for identifying an early and appropriate management for patients with acute coronary syndrome.
This podcast is ideal for those required to interpret ECGs during suspected or confirmed acute coronary syndrome within their clinical role and who wish to quickly develop a reliable method for ECG interpretation in this clinical setting.
How to prioritize which patients should be monitored with ECG?
Continuous ECG monitoring is currently applied in a variety of critical and non-critical care hospital settings. While early monitoring focused on heart rate measurement and fatal arrhythmia detection in acutely-ill cardiac patients, current ECG monitoring has expanded to include diagnoses of complex arrhythmias, acute myocardial ischemia, and (pharmacologically-induced) prolonged QT intervals in real time in several areas of the hospital. Thus, the clinical recommendations for using continuous ECG monitoring are a critical issue in daily clinical practice.
In this podcast, Dr. Nicola Cosentino provides a quick update for recommendations for continuous ECG monitoring of hospitalized patients, addressing its appropriate use in different clinical settings. In particular, a simple, but systematic, approach focusing on how to prioritize when dealing with continuous ECG monitoring is here provided.
Is ECG monitoring important in non-cardiac areas?
ECG monitoring was initially employed in coronary care units during the 1950s and 1960s. Today, it is more broadly applied in a variety of critical and non-critical care hospital settings. Moreover, while early monitoring focused on heart rate measurement and fatal arrhythmia detection in acutely-ill cardiac patients, current ECG monitoring has expanded to include diagnoses of complex arrhythmias, acute myocardial ischemia, and (pharmacologically-induced) prolonged QT intervals in real time also in non-cardiac areas of the hospital.
Thus, cardiac monitoring is a useful, noninvasive diagnostic tool that assists clinicians not only in detecting life-threatening arrhythmias but also in early identification patients who need to be urgently treated due to the ongoing clinical deterioration.
The purpose of this podcast is to provide a quick review for continuous ECG monitoring of patients hospitalized in non-cardiac areas, addressing its appropriate use and the expected clinical benefits.
What to look at in COVID and ECG monitoring
COVID-19 infection may have a negative impact on the cardiovascular system by potentially causing myocardial damage, vascular inflammation, and myocardial infarction. The presence of myocardial injury is a poor prognostic sign.
Electrocardiogram, a simple bedside diagnostic test with high prognostic value, and continuous ECG monitoring can be employed to assess early cardiovascular involvement in such patients and to rapidly detect life-threatening arrhythmias and/or impending clinical deterioration.
In this podcast, we will discuss the central role of 12-lead ECG and continuous ECG monitoring in COVID-19 patients. In particular, this podcast will provide practical insights and clinical protocols that can assist physicians in managing high-risk COVID-19 patients.
COVID and ECG: Clinical Evidence
COVID-19 infection is a multisystem disease not restricted to the lungs. It may have a negative impact on the cardiovascular system by potentially causing myocardial damage, vascular inflammation, and myocardial infarction. The presence of myocardial injury is a poor prognostic sign. Electrocardiogram, a simple bedside diagnostic test with high prognostic value, can be employed to assess early cardiovascular involvement in such patients. Various abnormalities in ECG like QRS complex and QTc interval prolongation, ST-T changes, arrhythmia, and conduction defects have been reported in COVID-19.
In this podcast, cardiology intensivist Dr. Nicola Cosentino will discuss the central role of ECG in the setting of COVID-19 patients. In particular, this podcast will highlight the impact of COVID-19 on ECG findings and on the risk of acute and life-threatening rhythm disorders.
