Methodology
21.6 patients at this census. The 104-inch organized section estimates 7 placements at 15 inches and 9 at 12 inches. Product utilization uses their 8-point average.
2,628 annual setup cycles, based on the census scenario and a 72-hour planning interval.
Exposed tubing spend is not predicted savings or ROI. Product cost and any reduction in replacements are not included.
About this estimate: Results are calculated using the facility-specific inputs entered above and are intended for informational and planning purposes. Actual utilization, tubing replacement practices, acquisition costs, and financial impact vary by facility. Results do not represent guaranteed savings or clinical outcomes.
Your inputs are private: Information entered into the calculator is used to generate your estimate and is not saved or shared with HH Medical, LLC (dba Line-Sort Medical) unless you choose Email My Analysis. When selected, your calculator inputs and results are submitted to Line-Sort Medical and retained as part of your requested analysis.
