Mobile CT
The ability to image patients at their point of care (POC) in the PICU/NICU can facilitate rapid clinical decision making, as time sensitivity for intervention is crucial to patient.
The Power of Imaging Without the Risk of Transfer
When you have the ability to scan patients at the point of care, you have the ability to make rapid clinical decisions in a time sensitive environment. This approach reduces risks associated with transporting critically ill pediatric patients. In turn, staff resources can be used in other areas.
By reducing the risks associated with transport, you can reduce the staff and time needed for imaging. Scan where it is needed most, at the bedside of your patients. Increase your efficiency and diagnostic capabilities. Make OmniTom Elite your facility-wide solution.
Reduce Transport-Related Incidents and Infections1
Using a multi-diciplinary approach and adopting a mobile CT in the ICU helped Overlook Medical Center:
Mobile CT Can Change Decision-Making in PICU Care
Mobile CT has significantly improved response times in Neonatal ICU settings, reducing the need for patient transfers and the complications that often accompany them.
This advancement allows nursing staff to remain focused on providing continuous care for all patients in the ICU.
A study looking at 225 PICU mobile CT cases2:
Improvement in mean time to scan for patients using mobile CT vs traditional fixed CT
Mobile CT has considerably changed the management response time in Neonatal ICU setup and decreased patient transfer and associated complications.3
