Under the telemetry agreement, Advanced ICU Care’s team of electrocardiogram technicians will provide 24/7 oversight for patients at risk for cardiac events. If a technician identifies a warning indicator or other situation in need of urgent intervention, he or she will engage on-site Passavant physicians and nurses.

Passavant is the first hospital to launch Advanced ICU Care’s telemetry service.
