Benchmarking

Comparative metrics across other hospitals within your integrated delivery network (IDN) provide meaningful insight which may serve as supplemental measures of performance. Whether you are comparing performance across your IDN or nationwide, benchmarking using Integrated Analytics Solutions from CareFusion can provide performance goals related to patient safety, inventory management and compliance.

Through a monthly infusion analytics service executive report, Alaris^® System users receive comparative benchmarks associated with Guardrails^® Suite MX Software usage and alert overrides. The foundation for these metrics is comprised of data from hundreds of hospitals across the United States. This data is updated on a nightly basis in order to provide a fresh perspective on clinical practice.

For Pyxis MedStation™ customers, comparative metrics can be accessed via the online Knowledge Portal. This functionality allows hospitals to compare performance with other facilities within their IDN as well as corporate performance goals.
