flag Continuous monitoring with Masimo tech cut costs and improved care at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, reducing emergencies and transfers.

flag A study published in the Journal of Patient Safety found that continuous patient monitoring using Masimo technologies at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center led to significant cost savings and improved outcomes. flag Analyzing data from nearly 32,000 patients over 3.5 years, researchers found that avoiding each rescue event saved about $5,500 and each transfer event about $10,700, boosting the hospital’s operating margin. flag The system, which includes continuous pulse oximetry and a centralized monitoring platform, was linked to a 50% drop in unplanned transfers and a 60% reduction in rescue events. flag These results support the cost-effectiveness of surveillance monitoring, with prior estimates showing annual savings of $1.48 million. flag Independent research in Saudi Arabia confirmed similar benefits, including lower mortality and better resuscitation outcomes.
