Horn Memorial Hospital recently installed a new
cardiac/pulmonary rehab monitoring system. The new monitoring system is used
for every patient who attends either cardiac or pulmonary rehab and replaces a
13-year old piece of equipment. Features
of the new system include
EKG (heart) and oxygen level monitoring and METS (work-load)
calculations; it also serves as the charting platform, gives summaries of
exercise sessions, tracks education classes, and takes photos of the patient
for identification purposes.
This state-of-the-art system was partially funded by a
generous grant from the Ida County Community Betterment Foundation
(ICCBF). ICCBF’s ongoing support of our
community hospital is recognized and greatly appreciated!
