Abstract
INTRODUCTION
A large SNF system in the United States adopted a holistic wound care model that included an AI DWMS to improve PI care.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the trend in PI point prevalence rates and average days to healing linked to adopting technology in practice from 2021 to 2022, and to assess the rate of received PI F686 citations in facilities that adopted the technology compared with those that did not.
METHODS
The study used the DWMS database to compare anonymized PI data assessed in 2021 (15 583 patients) vs 2022 (30 657 patients) from all SNF facilities that adopted the technology in 2021 and 2022. F686 citations data were provided by the SNF organization.
RESULTS
There was a 13.1% reduction in PI prevalence from 2021 to 2022 across all PI stages. Facilities that adopted the technology demonstrated a significant reduction in days to healing from 2021 to 2022, with an average of 17.7 days saved per PI or a 37.4% faster healing rate (P < .001). A significant reduction in the average days to healing was noted for all PI stages, with the most significant savings observed for stages 3 and 4, with an average savings of 35 days (stage 3) and 85 days (stage 4) in 2022 vs 2021 (P < .001). From 2021 to 2022, facilities that adopted the technology reported an overall 8.2% reduction in F-686 citations severity >G compared to those that did not adopt the technology.
CONCLUSION
Use of technology as part of a comprehensive wound care program has the potential to not only improve patient care and quality of life, but to realize considerable annual savings in additional PI out-of-pocket expenses (up to $1 410 000) and of clinicians' time (44 808 hours).
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
