The International Symposium on Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine for Latin America (IT) is a partnership between the Intensive Care Unit of Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein and the Department of Intensive Care Erasme Hospital, Free University of Brussels, represented respectively by Professors Elias Knobel and Jean-Louis Vincent.

Held since 2001, biannually, the ISICEM-LA is the Latin-American version of the Brussels event which is considered the best symposium on intensive care in the world. ISICEM-LA

With Visensia® already installed on evaluation at The Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein in Sao Paulo, OBS was invited to attend this prestigious event by its Brazilian Distributor Bragenix. This gave us the opportunity to further present and promote Visensia® and its key features and benefits to some of the 2000 people attending the symposium and to build on our success in this region.

The benefits achieved as a result of re-evaluating existing practise and by implementing a unique solution like Visensia®, where by the continuous monitoring of patients’ vital signs, combined with the predictive nature of Visensia®, can lead to vast improvements in the detection of patient deterioration and a reduction in unexpected deaths.1

Visensia® also facilitates the allocation of nurse resource according to their grade and quantity according to the patients’ VSI. The VSI represents the patients move away from normality and has been proven to provide up to 6hrs advanced warning of critical instability.2

The symposium was a huge success for both Bragenix and OBS Medical with a number of key Hospitals looking to evaluate Visensia®  in the near future.
