������Ƶ is excited to announce its of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) Cardiac Society.

The ERAS® Cardiac Society is a non-profit organization with the mission to develop evidence-based expert consensus statements promoting best practice recovery practices. Through collaboration, education, and dissemination of knowledge, the ERAS® Cardiac society aims to provide enhanced guidance and educational tools for the reduction of post-operative complications and costs after heart surgery. 

The society recently published this outlining their recommendations for an optimal Cardiac ERAS® program. One of the 22 recommended interventions is to use a digital patient engagement platform such as ������Ƶ, to deliver standardized ERAS protocols and to collect ERAS-related Patient-reported Outcomes (PROs) such as pain, opioid consumption, and patient compliance.

Furthermore, ������Ƶ has consistently improved clinical outcomes for cardiac surgery. Cardiac centers using the platform have seen significant reductions in patient length of stay, 30-day readmissions, and costs. For example:

• Click to read how Baystate Health used ������Ƶ for Cardiac ERAS to ↓ LOS by 0.9 days, ↓ Readmission by 72%, and ↓ SNF use by 60%;

• Click to read how St. Francis Hospital used ������Ƶ to ↓ Readmissions by 45% for Cardiac surgery during COVID-19;

Dr. Daniel Engelman, Medical Director for Baystate's Heart & Vascular Surgical Program, and President of the ERAS® Cardiac International Society has emphasized the impact of ������Ƶ in enhancing cardiac care: “Patient engagement technology like ������Ƶ is a recommended component in the  ERAS® Cardiac guidelines. ������Ƶ has empowered our patients to be partners in their own care, leading to better patient experiences and clinical outcomes.”

������Ƶ’s corporate partnership with the ERAS® Cardiac Society further exemplifies our shared goal to elevate the patient experience and to ensure every patient gets the right care at the right time.
