Proven Pressure Management

In a study of 15 subjects ranging from 16-54 BMI (average BMI 35.5), the Pink Pad provided an average peak pressure reduction of 43%.

US Government Data2 show Hospital-Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPIs):
  • Are the direct cause of death for roughly 60,000 patients each year
  • Add an estimated $43,180 in costs per hospital stay
  • Result in more than 17,000 medical lawsuits, annually (the second most common claim after wrongful death)
  • Increase hospital stays by nine days on average

Images shown are of the same 30.85 BMI subject, on a solid surface, with and without the Pink Pad. Tests were conducted with an Xsensor Sensor Pad Model PX 100:48.144.02

Reduce Time, Costs, and Unnecessary Risk

Stopwatch

Setup Time Under One Minute

  • Setup time under one minute saves your hospital up to $1,900 per procedure*
    *Based on OR costs of $100/minute2 3, and 20-minute average setup times for competitive systems
  • Standardized best-practices can be achieved with pre-configured kits, eliminating makeshift "off-label" solutions

Less Time for Risk

  • For each hour of the duration of surgery, the risk of SSI increased by 34%4
  • The risk of pressure injuries increases by 40% every 30 minutes of surgery5
  • Prolonged anesthesia duration is associated with increased odds of complication, venous thromboembolism, increased length of stay, and return to operating room.6

Leading Clinical Evidence

  • “Postoperative erythema was significantly less common on the Pink Pad…” 7
  • “There was significantly less pain in the Pink Pad group versus the gel-pad group.” 7
