Leveraging Advanced Intelligent Printing Technologies to Support Patient Outcomes

Advanced printing technologies can positively impact patient outcomes both inside and outside of the healthcare facility. New printing technologies can eliminate the manual process of patient information by leveraging smarter labels and wristbands that can automatically transmit actionable intelligence that ties back to the patient’s correct identity, location, and patient chart in the EMR.

This technology can easily integrate with EMRs and other hospital systems to generate accurate, up-to-date records related to risks and readmissions, helping to ensure your organization remains compliant.

Leveraging this same technology can also help patients successfully manage their care once they leave the hospital or health system. Impactful meaningful discharge instructions that leverage color and are personalized to the patient’s care will increase comprehension to the patient in order to follow through with physicians’ instructions and fully participate in their recovery.

Furthermore, with bacteria continuously developing new ways to resist antibiotics, this same microfluidics technology for smarter labels and customized patient education is also being utilized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to accelerate testing of new antibiotics at the local level.

This webinar will discuss how intelligent advanced printing technologies can help:

Facilitate patient identification, location, and safety
Support impactful discharge instructions that can help lower readmission rates
Promote effectiveness of antibiotics to save lives and protect patients
