UniView Aggregates and Displays Patient Data From Multiple Devices to
Minimize Clinician Cognitive Overload and Maximize Patient Safety
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 2, 2018--
Masimo (NASDAQ:
MASI) announced today the release of UniView™, an integrated display of
real-time data and alarms from multiple Masimo and third-party devices,
designed to reduce clinician cognitive overload and improve patient
safety. UniView promotes data sharing and team coordination among
multiple clinicians.

In operating rooms (ORs), in intensive care units (ICUs), and in other
areas which involve multiple clinical disciplines, clinicians are often
unable to simultaneously view data from all of the various medical
devices in use, resulting in information that remains siloed among, for
example, anesthesiologists, surgeons, and nurses. In addition, the
plethora of displays and user interfaces adds to cognitive overload that
can cause clinician burnout and suboptimal patient care.
UniView solves these problems by bringing together data from a variety
of sources – such as patient monitors, ventilators, anesthesia gas
machines, and IV pumps – and providing a supplementary display for them,
clearly organized, on one or more large, central monitors, so that all
clinicians can simultaneously view and act upon the same, comprehensive
real-time patient status and historical trends. Visual alarm indicators,
relayed from the connected devices, help clinicians recognize patient
distress and target areas for immediate focus. UniView is suitable for
any area where comprehensive, logically organized, and timely data are
key to supporting good clinical care.
UniView also provides tailored, use-case-specific screen layouts which
optimize the presentation of advanced and integrated parameters, trend
data, and waveforms for a variety of clinical scenarios, making it a
versatile solution in many environments. For example:
-
In Overview layout, view monitoring data from all connected
point-of-care and therapeutic devices including waveforms and alarms,
for an overview of patient status.
-
In Hemodynamics layout, view trend data for noninvasive
hemoglobin (SpHb®), pleth variability index (PVi®),
and pulse rate to aid in visualizing patient status over time.
-
In Oxygenation layout, view ventilator waveforms alongside
noninvasive trended hemoglobin (SpHb) and oxygen saturation (SpO2)
to monitor a patient’s oxygenation status.
-
In Sedation layout, view high-fidelity EEG waveforms, patient
state index (PSi), and anesthesia machine data to monitor a patient’s
sedation.
In addition, hospitals will be able customize the view as preferred and
even take advantage of individual customization using Masimo MyView™
technology.
Joe Kiani, Founder and CEO of Masimo, said, “We are answering
clinicians’ calls for logical, clinically transformational cockpits for
the collaborative ORs and ICUs of the future. UniView is a great example
of Masimo’s ongoing commitment to automating patient care, whether it’s
making pulse oximeters accurate when you need that accuracy most,
creating new noninvasive monitoring technologies such as SpHb, or in
this case, unsiloing data, enhancing connectivity, and communicating
patient data as effectively and efficiently as possible, so that
clinicians can focus more on their patients. We look forward to
introducing additional enhancements soon – helping to bring automation
and connectivity to the next level.”
UniView builds on the success of Kite™, which projects data from Root®
on a larger screen, by aggregating data from all of the connected
devices in a room, including third-party ones, so that a supplemental
display of all monitoring data can be viewed by all. UniView works in
conjunction with Masimo Iris Gateway™ and Patient SafetyNet™*
connectivity platforms. Complementing UniView, the recently announced
Masimo Replica™ allows clinicians to view similar monitoring data for
multiple patients, as well as view and respond to alarms and alerts, all
from a smart phone, regardless of location.

About Masimo
Masimo (NASDAQ: MASI) is a global leader in innovative noninvasive
monitoring technologies. Our mission is to improve patient outcomes and
reduce the cost of care. In 1995, the company debuted Masimo SET®
Measure-through Motion and Low Perfusion™ pulse oximetry, which has been
shown in multiple studies to significantly reduce false alarms and
accurately monitor for true alarms. Masimo SET® has also been
shown to help clinicians reduce severe retinopathy of prematurity in
neonates,1 improve CCHD screening in newborns,2
and, when used for continuous monitoring with Masimo Patient SafetyNet™*
in post-surgical wards, reduce rapid response activations and costs.3,4,5
Masimo SET® is estimated to be used on more than 100 million
patients in leading hospitals and other healthcare settings around the
world,6 and is the primary pulse oximetry at 17 of the top 20
hospitals listed in the 2017-18 U.S. News and World Report Best
Hospitals Honor Roll.7 In 2005, Masimo introduced rainbow®
Pulse CO-Oximetry technology, allowing noninvasive and continuous
monitoring of blood constituents that previously could only be measured
invasively, including total hemoglobin (SpHb®), oxygen
content (SpOC™), carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO®), methemoglobin
(SpMet®), Pleth Variability Index (PVi®), and more
recently, Oxygen Reserve Index™ (ORi™), in addition to SpO2,
pulse rate, and perfusion index (Pi). In 2014, Masimo introduced Root®,
an intuitive patient monitoring and connectivity platform with the
Masimo Open Connect® (MOC-9®) interface, enabling
other companies to augment Root with new features and measurement
capabilities. Masimo is also taking an active leadership role in mHealth
with products such as the Radius-7® wearable patient monitor,
iSpO2® pulse oximeter for smartphones, and the
MightySat™ fingertip pulse oximeter. Additional information about Masimo
and its products may be found at www.masimo.com.

ORi has not received FDA 510(k) clearance and is not available for sale
in the United States.
