Partner Hospitals Share How Advanced ICU Care® Helps Improve Patient Care "We were just blown away with their implementation.

Hospital COO, North Carolina "Our patients are receiving the best recommended standard of medical care available with the collaboration between their "When the Advanced ICU Care partnership was proposed, we were convinced that it was the right decision and the next step in our continuous commitment to improve quality of care for the community. We are very pleased with the results." Hospital Chairman of the Board, South Carolina "We have achieved a positive clinical impact in a very short time. On average the patient's ICU LOS was 25% shorter than predicted in Q1, and in Q2, the rate improved to nearly 30% shorter ICU LOS than predicted. This translates to nearly 330 ICU days saved. In addition, this translated to 740 hospital days saved during Q2." Hospital CMO, New Jersey doctor, the hospital critical care team and the centralized telemonitoring oversight of Advanced ICU Care." Hospital Senior Vice President, Illinois "We knew we needed to recruit intensivists to be at the bedside to help manage care, but we also knew that there were limited recruiting opportunities. Even if we were able to hire several critical care physicians, it would not be physically possible for them to staff the ICU 24/7. Advanced ICU Care was the answer to this problem. The tele-ICU model is a high quality, customer service-oriented, cost effective solution and is a vital part of our strategic future." Hospital CEO, New Jersey "We have seen a huge benefit in physician and employee satisfaction. Our physician satisfaction has improved by 66 percent. The staff is more comfortable and now has the intensivist support they need to appropriately care for patients in the ICU and deal with emergencies that arise. Overall we have a better rested and more productive medical staff with a stronger clinical leadership base." Hospital CEO, Missouri 866-394-6100 • www.icumedicine.com
