Medical Device Integration (MDI) is the exchange of data from medical devices — vital sign monitors, ventilators, smart pumps, etc. — to patients' electronic health records (EHRs). In this webinar, you'll learn how MDI can save nurses time, reduce errors, improve patient outcomes, and shorten lengths of stay.

Objectives:
- Identify how MDI can save nurses time, quantify that amount, and point to documented supporting references.
- State how MDI can reduce adverse events, give examples, and point to documented supporting references.
- Describe how MDI can shorten patient lengths of stays, as well as reduce instances of Ventilator Acquired Pneumonia (VAP) and point to documented supporting references.
- Identify how MDI can decrease redundant tests and readmissions, and point to documented supporting references.
