Pulsara: Medical Communication 50.7063

Pulsara® empowers individuals during critical moments by providing a platform that facilitates team building and communication with public safety, public health, and emergency management. This platform unites various distributed teams, including first responders, emergency medical services, fire departments, hospitals, health systems, behavioral health experts, and emergency management personnel. By standardizing workflows and streamlining communications for every method of arrival and patient or event type, Pulsara's flexible platform results in decreased treatment times, improved quality of care, reduced provider burnout, and cost and resource savings.

In today's age of smartphones and mobile technology, many health systems still rely on outdated methods of coordination such as fax machines, pagers, two-way radios, landline phone calls, and sticky notes. This often leads to vital information falling through the cracks, wasted resources, delayed treatments, decreased quality of care, and significant financial losses due to medical errors.

Unlike other solutions that only connect individuals within their own facility or organization, Pulsara has the ability to connect anyone from anywhere for any condition or event. This enables the development of true scalable systems of care that improve the lives of those in need. Pulsara streamlines logistics and communication surrounding patient events in a purpose-built manner.

The process is simple: CREATE a dedicated patient channel, BUILD the team, and COMMUNICATE & TRACK using audio, live video, instant messaging, data, images, and key milestones. Pulsara allows you to add new organizations, teams, or individuals dynamically as patient conditions and locations evolve. In times of disaster, Pulsara can effectively manage major incidents using the same familiar platform used for routine calls. Regardless of the situation at hand, Pulsara connects the right people at the right time for every patient.

Pulsara believes in putting people first. They view their customers as partners on a journey to improve the lives of those they serve. By leveraging innovative communication features through the Pulsara platform, customers around the world have achieved improved patient outcomes:

• A hospital in Texas decreased the time it takes for stroke patients to receive tPA by 59%, reducing the average time from 110 minutes to 46 minutes.
• In an Australian health system, ambulances routinely bypass the emergency department and take patients directly to CT in an average of 7 minutes, a 68% decrease from the previous average of 22 minutes.
