Clinical Dynamics Releases Free Managing Medical Alarms Guide to Help Biomedical Engineers Meet the JCAHO National Patient Safety Goal

Managing Medical AlarmsWALLINGFORD, CTClinical Dynamics Corporation announced today that, in collaboration, with renowned expert Ode Keil, President of The Ode Keil Consulting Group, a free guide entitled: Managing Medical Alarms: A Practical Approach to Meeting the JCAHO National Patient Safety Goal is being released.

"Patient safety is an essential part of quality care. As the ability to treat sicker patients increases, it has become more critical to rely on technology. In many cases, the technology detects impending harm sooner than humans. Unless alarms used to notify the humans of the impending harm are managed correctly, we have failed the patient." stated Ode Keil, President of the Ode Keil Consulting Group.

"We noticed that many professionals in our industry had questions about setting up a process to meet/exceed the requirements to manage medical alarms according to the JCAHO National Patient Safety Goal. We believe it was a worthwhile investment to commission the leading expert in our industry, Ode Keil, to develop a guide for our industry to use." stated Joseph Rebot, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Clinical Dynamics Corporation.

Rebot stated that customers interested in obtaining the guide may download it from Clinical Dynamics’ web site, www.clinicaldynamics.com or request a copy by sending an email to info@clinicaldynamics.com.
