Midmark Medical
Receives Innovative Technology Designation from Vizient
DAYTON, Ohio, Dec. 7, 2016 — Midmark today announced that Midmark
Clinical Solutions has received Innovative Technology designation from
Vizient, Inc., the largest member-driven healthcare performance
improvement company in the country. The designation was based on
reviews of Midmark Clinical Solutions by hospital experts who attended
Vizient’s Innovative Technology Exchange in September 2016. The event
provided medical technology suppliers the opportunity to demonstrate
their products and gain direct feedback from 1300 onsite clinical
experts and healthcare providers on the impact their products may have
on improving clinical care, safety or benefits to an organization’s
care and business model.
The innovative display is part of Midmark Clinical Solutions, a series
of exam and procedure room design concepts useful in facilities
planning. This display featured an exam room ecosystem designed to
optimize patient and family conveyance, vitals acquisition,
patient-caregiver interaction as well as data collection and
documentation. The ecosystem is designed to streamline exam room
workflow by helping caregivers easily capture patient data at the point
of care and port it directly to an EMR. Featuring a Midmark 625 height-
adjustable exam table with an integrated digital scale, the design
improves patient and caregiver safety by allowing all patients,
including the elderly and obese, to easily transition to the exam
table. Connected to Midmark IQvitals®, blood pressure, temperature,
SpO2, pulse rate and weight are captured and transmitted seamlessly to
the EMR without the risk of transcription errors.
Jon Wells, vice president of marketing, Midmark Medical stated, “We are
extremely honored to receive this recognition from Vizient. As the
healthcare industry has undergone significant change brought on by new
legislation, innovative technologies and changing patient demographics,
Midmark Clinical Solutions is helping to redefine the clinical space
layout in medical facilities for more efficient patient care. We are
dedicated to providing the needed tools to help caregivers rethink
workflow and adopt patient-centered design.”
“Due to the number of products and services being released and marketed
as ‘innovative’, member hospitals truly value the peer-review system in
place at Vizient to help them identify products worth further
evaluation at their own facilities,” said Debbie Archer, director of
procurement and leader of Vizient’s Innovative Technology program for
suppliers. “After a review of Midmark’s Clinical Solutions, Vizient’s
member council agreed this solution offers unique and incremental
benefit over other products available on the market today, and
recommended it for an Innovative Technology designation.”
