Surveillance Sécurisée
Surveillance Sécurisée
La sécurité des patients vise à garantir la protection des personnes sous traitement médical. Cela englobe diverses initiatives, telles que l'utilisation sécurisée des équipements médicaux et la formation du personnel. Chez Nihon Kohden, nous nous concentrons également sur la création d'un environnement propice à la concentration des patients sur leur traitement, grâce à l'utilisation de dispositifs médicaux, out en assurant une réactivité rapide du personnel aux alertes des patients, sans manquer aucune notification.
1. Détection Précoce
La détection précoce, la reconnaissance des symptômes de toute maladie le plus tôt possible et la réception rapide d'un traitement approprié empêcheront l'aggravation des symptômes et conduiront à une guérison précoce. Nous aidons le personnel hospitalier à déterminer rapidement un plan de traitement lorsque des changements soudains surviennent dans l'état et les symptômes des patients.
1-1. NCSE (État épileptique non convulsif)
La surveillance EEG est de plus en plus importante en soins neurointensifs. On dit que l'intervention précoce dans l'État épileptique non convulsif (NCSE) réduit le risque de lésion cérébrale secondaire et de symptômes cliniques. La surveillance EEG avec des formes d'ondes réelles est donc cruciale pour la détection précoce du NCSE.
Ressentez-vous...
lors de l'utilisation d'électroencéphalographes (EEG) qu'il est difficile de fixer les électrodes et que vous ne pouvez pas mesurer immédiatement?
La solution de Nihon Kohden
Une application de EEG facile
Désormais, grâce au casque CerebAir, nous pouvons offrir à tous une technologie innovante d'EEG continu. Le casque CerebAir est un amplificateur de télémétrie EEG, conçu pour réaliser une surveillance EEG continue, rapide et simple, dans un contexte de soins intensifs - et ce sans nécessiter de compétences spécialisées dans l'application d'électrodes EEG.
Pensez-vous...
que mesurer et interpréter l'EEG nécessite toujours l'assistance d'un électroencéphalographe?

EEG avec les signes vitaux
De plus, il peut se connecter aux moniteurs patients et l'EEG peut y être affiché. En connectant le CerebAir à un moniteur, l'EEG peut être visualisé avec les signes vitaux.
1-2. EWS (Early Warning Score ou Score d'Alerte Précoce)
Les changements soudains chez les patients sont physiquement et psychologiquement stressants pour les soignants.
Dans une étude* sur les événements iatrogènes survenus au cours d'une période spécifique dans cinq hôpitaux en Angleterre, 77 % des événements iatrogènes étaient évitables et 80 % étaient considérés comme ayant provoqué ou contribué à l'hospitalisation.

Avez-vous déja connu...
une admission inattendue en soins intensifs due à une mauvaise gestion de la détérioration de l'état du patient?
Témoignages des soignants
- Il est difficile d'affirmer avec confiance que l'état du patient se détériore même si vous avez le sentiment que le patient semble "inhabituel".
La solution de Nihon Kohden
Un indicateur simple de l'état du patient
Il est important de remarquer rapidement les symptômes signalés. La fonction EWS de Nihon Kohden peut afficher l'indice réel sur l'écran d'accueil. De plus, la fenêtre du graphique EWS aide à visualiser les changements dans le score d'alerte précoce d'un patient.
2. Silent Environment
The hospital rooms at each site are not only a place to treat patients, but also a place to live. In other words, it is very important to create an environment where patients can spend their time safely and securely. For patients, an uncomfortable environment can cause stress and drain their energy.
By having medical staff focus on creating an environment suitable for each patient, it reduces the patient's stress and allows the patient to focus on healing. It is important to improve the environment for patients to recover.
2-1. Alarm management
Alarm management functions and systems provide the best care
There are various alarms such as respiratory alarms, nurse calls, and patient monitor alarms around the nurse's station and patient bed, and medical staff are busy dealing with many alarms.
Managing alarms effectively addresses two main issues: reducing false alarms and optimizing workflows when alarms are triggered.
In addition, proper alarm management minimizes alarm fatigue for medical staff. This improves efficiency, and ultimately improves patient safety and quality of care.
How do you deal with...
the inevitable alarms that go off during an inspection or a patient's routine activities? Are there frequent technical alarms or specific alarms?
Voices from the caregivers
- “Alarms inevitably sound when treating patients...”
- “I want to get a general overview of the patient's condition during the nurse's check-in...”
- “Technical alarms occur frequently, but I cannot determine if they are due to vital data…”
Nihon Kohden's solution
Make the environment as silent as possible
Nihon Kohden monitors are equipped with features that reduce unnecessary alarms. The use of the All Beds Alarms Event function on the central monitor allows the user to check the time and type of alarms that have occurred for each patient—appropriate changes to alarm settings and other actions can be taken.
In addition, the alarm paused function allows the monitor to temporarily pause alarms, creating a silent environment when treating patients.
Are you bothered...
by too many alarms on your monitor?
Voices from the caregivers
- Responding fatigue due to frequent monitor alarms, and an extra burden when there is a shortage of staff depending on the working hours.
- The alarm goes off too much and you can't concentrate on your work.
- Even after returning home after work, the sound of the monitor alarm remains like ringing in the ears, which is stressful.

3. Monitoring Anywhere/Monitoring Anytime
For critically ill patients, many devices are connected to critical care beds to ensure that sufficient patient management is possible. However, there are cases where the equipment cannot be carried easily or where there are few personnel at the time of transportation, although in-hospital transportation is a common task.
As a result, it was reported that 68% of in-hospital transports involve critical events, of which 9% were life-threatening events. (1) Nihon Kohden offers products which provide patient vitals in real time and seamlessly even during hospital transportation, contributing to both patient and medical safety.

Nihon Kohden's solution
ViTrac supports you!
Using ViTrac, patient vitals can be referenced from anywhere using the hospital's wireless LAN environment. This enables prompt instructions and treatment in the event of a sudden change in the patient condition.
Have you ever experienced...
a sudden change in patients while transporting them from a critical care bed to a general hospital bed or from a general hospital bed to a critical care bed?
Nihon Kohden's solution
Seamless monitoring using a Wireless Server Extension
You can see real-time patient vitals during transportation. It enables quick instructions and treatment in the event of a sudden change in the patient condition.
How can we improve...
the treatment environment in the hospital for both patients and medical staff?
Nihon Kohden's solution
Monitor the patients, anywhere, anytime !
By combining the Nihon Kohden products such as EnterpriseGateway ViTrac, Telemetry Server Extension, and SmartLink/Pager, you can deliver alarms to your staff anytime, anywhere (staff or patient location) to prevent oversights. The staff receiving the alarm can check the patient's vital data at their current location.
Nihon Kohden is also focusing on building an environment where patients can concentrate on treatment with peace of mind through medical devices and systems, and an environment where staff can respond quickly without missing patient alerts.
A better environment brings better outcomes.
