The Rothman Index for Global Clinical Surveillance
Integrate real-time patient status into your clinical workflow
The Rothman Index goes beyond vitals-based monitoring to provide constant, advanced surveillance and trending for any patient, any disease, and any unit – using nursing assessments, reducing false alarms, and helping clinicians make the most timely patient care decisions.
The Rothman Index is a valuable tool for the clinical nurse. Changes in patient condition can be difficult to notice, yet the potential for reversing negative outcomes associated with these changes could perhaps mean life or death. The RI is helpful in identifying early changes in patient condition and helps to validate any ‘gut instinct’ there is something more going on with the patient that we need to address.
