VitalPAC prompts clinicians to assess all patients for the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and prescribe prophylaxis as required.
Easy risk assessment
- VitalPAC provides ward staff with an easy way to electronically record a patient's risk of developing VTE in line with Department of Health guidelines
- It provides guidance on appropriate treatment according to the assessment
- It enables staff to indicate the intended treatment, and subsequently confirm whether this has been prescribed
High levels of compliance
- VitalPAC clearly highlights any patient who has not been risk assessed on admission
- It indicates when a repeat assessment is due
- It provides detailed daily reports to identify areas where compliance could be improved
- It automatically generates performance reports to assure the board and commissioners that appropriate care is being delivered and compliance targets are being met
