How does INFANT work?
The INFANT Study
INFANT-Guardian supports Smart Prevention: Empowering clinicians to save lives
Countless maternity reviews and confidential enquiries have identified that human errors and mis-interpretation of the fetal heart rate monitoring are preventing improvements in perinatal outcome. Up to 800 babies a year are stillborn or suffer catastrophic brain damage a year in the UK, with £500m being spent annually by the National Health Service to fund medical malpractice claims.
800
Babies a year are stillborn or suffer catastrophic brain damage a year in the UK.
£500m
is spent annually by the NHS to compensate babies born brain damaged following negligent care.
£200,000
is the average treatment cost per brain damaged baby. One baby saved would pay for INFANT-Guardian for two years in most hospitals.
£14m
Savings to the NHS when just one clinical negligence claim is avoided.
Savings
-
The immediate treatment costs per brain damaged baby is greater than £200,000. One baby saved would pay for INFANT-Guardian for two years in most hospitals.
-
Clinical staff costs and legal services staff costs saved as a result of fewer serious case reviews in relation to stillbirths, neonatal deaths and brain damaged babies.
-
INFANT-Guardian generates 100% accurate Payment By Results ensuring hospitals maximise their income.
