Accurate, actionable patient alarms delivered directly to qualified caregivers help you keep patients safe on general care floors

Because sentinel events occur when you least expect them, trust Masimo to help you avoid a failure to rescue

The last thing you expect when otherwise healthy patients are admitted for routine procedures is that they won't go home due to a sentinel event.

• > Unfortunately, the combination of patient-controlled analgesia and lower staff-to-patient ratios on general care floors make it less likely that a clinician will be there to observe an avoidable adverse event.
• > According to the Anesthesia Patient Saftey Foundation (APSF), "intermittent subjective assessments of ventilation or level of consciousness are unreliable predictors of future respiratory depression, even over short time frames," and continuous monitoring of oxygenation via pulse oximetry must be "the routine and not the exception."¹
• > With the Masimo Patient SafetyNet system, you and your patients can rest easier knowing accurate, actionable alarms are instantly sent to assigned clinicians through a flexible, cost-effective system that can leverage existing IT infrastructure.

Patient SafetyNet facilitates appropriate early clinical response, preempts sentinel events and avoids unnecessary ICU transfers while helping you meet Joint Commission, APSF and ASA guidelines
