Patient Information Center iX (PIC iX)

PIC iX works with the Philips Care Assist mobile app to unlock new workflows. The app is part of our new wavestrip workflow, allowing the bedside clinician to review alarms and previous waveforms; measure, annotate, and export wavestrips to the electronic health record. Clinical staff are inherently mobile, and to support them, Care Assist can perform admission, discharge and transfer tasks as well as assign equipment to the patient's bed in PIC iX. For general care staff, this means when a patient is admitted or transferred to your unit, there is no need to walk back to the central station. Admitting a patient can simply be done at the bedside in the Care Assist app. Similarly, for telemetry patients, there is no need to contact another staff member near the central station and tell them to assign the telemetry equipment to the bed in PIC iX; this can all be done from the Care Assist app.

View patient monitoring history across the continuum of care – from the ED, to non-telemetry med-surg areas, the OR, procedure areas and ICU, through to telemetry floors and even during transport. This allows you to make clinical decisions based on the most recent patient data – at every stage of your patient’s hospital journey.

PIC iX offers powerful clinical decision support tools, early warning scoring and advanced algorithms designed to help you identify patients in need early, prior to critical events. Additionally, PIC iX includes technology that can help prioritize alarm protocols and workflows. Alarm Advisor proactively offers suggestions for personalizing each patient's settings to help clinicians reduce non-actionable alarms.
