PeriGen system drives successful effort to reduce modifiable factors shown to contribute to preventable birth injury
CARY, N.C., May 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- PeriGen Inc., the market leader in automated maternal-fetal early warning systems, today announced that Community Health Systems (CHS), a leading operator of general acute care hospitals in communities across the country, will present results realized after its implementation of PeriGen's PeriWatch Vigilance early warning and clinical decision support system at the IHI Patient Safety Congress 2022 (May 16-18 in Dallas, plus virtual).

The initial results achieved by the CHS hospital labor and delivery departments using PeriWatch Vigilance will be shared via poster session. The results, titled "Reducing Modifiable Factors that Contribute to Preventable Birth Injury," highlights the patient safety improvement program's early data following the implementation of Vigilance as part of an obstetrics safety initiative.

"The results observed by CHS across eight affiliated hospitals using Vigilance continue to illustrate the value of augmenting bedside nursing with advanced automation, especially when negative trends are so prone to normalization of deviance," said Matthew Sappern, CEO PeriGen. "CHS leadership made Vigilance adoption a priority system wide and is now realizing the benefits of this commitment. Leadership is paramount in effecting behavior change."
An automated early warning system and clinical decision support tool for obstetrics, PeriWatch Vigilance is designed to enhance clinical efficiency, timely intervention, and standardization of care. It adds an AI-based approach to patient safety initiatives. It can track hundreds of patients across multiple sites––continuously sorting and color-coding them according to defined parameters and notifying clinicians based on degree and duration of abnormality.
