ventilator associated pneumonia treatments and prevention

Hill-Rom® Clear Lungs™ Program
Ventilator-associated pneumonia prevention and treatments

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the leading cause of death among hospital-acquired infections and has an associated mortality rate of 46%. Pulmonary infection treatment and prevention of hospital acquired infections are top of mind for caregivers and Hill-Rom.

The new Hill-Rom Clear Lungs Program enables measurable and sustainable reductions in pulmonary complications by:

  • Enabling evidence-based continuous improvement of your pulmonary therapies, protocols and their adoption
  • Automating VAP bundle protocols to ensure a raised head-of-bed angle and mobilization therapies, providing peace of mind for your patients and caregivers
  • Better connecting the patient to the caregiver network

A comprehensive approach to preventing and treating pulmonary complications

We understand that reducing respiratory infections and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in the ICU is difficult. It takes everyone in the care continuum to work together to administer proven therapies leveraging the right tools and technologies. Only Hill-Rom takes a comprehensive approach that includes:

  • Actionable analytics to evaluate protocols and measure their adherence and effectiveness
  • Clinical pulmonary experts and implementation teams that work side by side with you to establish the right treatments, therapies and protocols
  • Broad portfolio of intelligent beds and surfaces that provide a full range of patient mobilization capabilities that are proven to reduce hospital LOS and facility-acquired pneumonia
  • Centralized monitoring and proactive alerting of unsafe conditions, such as head-of-bed angle, directly to the caregiver- wherever they are.
  • Almost 14,000 respiratory products, including over 6,000 ventilators available for rent 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our people, processes and technology are uniquely positioned to help healthcare
providers enhance outcomes for their patients and meet safety guidelines.
