Making every process better

Rethinking makes every process better.

By using the tools available to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption or waste and bringing new approaches to your processes, products and methods. Our own rethinking process has led us to holistic solutions which, in turn, has a positive impact on sustainability.


Early Mobilization - Reducing the length of stay

Our Improving Acute Care strategy contributes to positive patient outcomes. Using protective therapies to assist in reducing length of stay in the ITU has a positive impact on sustainability. 

Reduced length of stay allows the hospital to become more efficient by minimizing costs, CO2 footprint, waste and energy. 

We can reduce:

Early weaning from ventilators

SmartCare is an automated weaning system which helps reduce length of patient stay. 

The process decreases ventilator support gradually, an automated spontaneous breathing trial and increased ventilatory support when needed. Reducing overall ventilation time by up to 33% and could potentially save €650 million ($710 million) in Germany alone. That is a saving of $10.000 per case of VAP avoided.
