It is clear from the medical literature that 24/7 monitoring of patients by intensivists in the ICU results in better patient care and lower mortality. However, less than 20 percent of hospitals have intensivists providing around-the-clock coverage. The study “Updating the Leapfrog Group Intensive Care Unit Physician Staffing Standard” found that more than 54,000 ICU deaths per year could be avoided in the ICU if intensivists were consistently monitoring patients in every ICU. Other studies published in the Journal of the American Medical Association and conducted by the New England Healthcare Institute found that ICU patients have lower risks of death and shorter ICU and hospital stays when continuously monitored by a tele-ICU. In 2019, Hicuity Health saved over 2,000 lives and reduced mortality by 36% when compared to what would have been expected otherwise, based on the condition of patients when they arrived at the ICU as measured by APACHE (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation) IVa data.
