Across the country, hospital intensive care units admit more than 5 million critically ill patients. When these units are staffed by intensivists, lengths of stay and costs (estimated at $13 million annually) are reduced.

Although there are significant benefits to intensivist-led intervention and care, coverage continues to be an ongoing challenge, a challenge addressed by Avel eCare ICU. Utilizing innovative remote monitoring technology, Avel’s credentialed and privileged intensivists provide ongoing remote monitoring, immediate intervention, and on-demand consultation to help ICU teams respond faster when a critical change occurs.

Facilities with Avel eCare ICU services improve the use of evidence-based medicine, reduce staff burnout thanks to 24/7 monitoring, reduce rates of complications and mortality, and reduce transfers which deliver an economic boost to both the facility and the local community.

During the last 12 months, Avel eCare ICU has had the following impact:

• 203 lives saved
• $11.2 million in costs saved
• 7,000 less days on the ICU through faster response times to complications
