HORSESHOE Features & Benefits

Hospital Size (Total Beds) 344

ICU Beds (11% of total Beds) 38

Mechanically Ventilated Patients (30% of ICU Admits)

Mechanically ventilated patient estimate is derived from ventilator day-based modeling assuming average ICU length of stay and 30% ventilation rate among ICU admissions.

Unplanned Extubations (UE) – Estimated Annual Cost Avoidance	$368,928	$737,856
Reintubation Post‑UE – Estimated Annual Cost Avoidance	$127,884	$255,768
ET Tube‑Related Pressure Injuries – Estimated Annual Cost Avoidance Cost estimate for ET tube-related pressure injuries is informed by national cost averages for hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPI), including data from HFMA: “Why Investing in HAPI Prevention Pays”	$168,000	$336,000
Total Estimated Annual Savings	$664,812	$1,329,624

The annualized ROI estimate above illustrates the potential budgetary impact of using the HORSESHOE™ ETT securement device, primarily due to a reduction in unplanned extubations (UEs), reintubations post‑UE, and ET tube‑related pressure injuries. The model reflects a medium‑sized hospital archetype of 344 beds, based on a representative site derived from CDC benchmarks. In this base case scenario, the facility could experience an estimated cost avoidance of approximately $664,812 per year—or just over $1,000 per mechanically ventilated patient—assuming a 25% reduction in such adverse events.

Please note: These projections are estimates based on currently available data and modeling assumptions. Actual savings may vary depending on site-specific factors, patient populations, and clinical practices. The annualized savings projection includes both direct clinical costs and downstream effects (e.g., ICU days, reintubation, and injury treatment), offset by the expected cost of the securement device.

The annualized ROI estimate above showcases the potential budgetary impact of using the HORSESHOE™ ETT securement device. This is due to reduction of unplanned extubations (UEs), reintubations post‑UE, and ET tube‑related pressure injury incidence rates. Above is a medium‑sized hospital archetype of 344 beds. This composition was based on using a site derived from CDC benchmarks. In this base case scenario, the facility could experience an estimated cost avoidance of approximately $664,812 per year, or just over $1,000 per mechanically ventilated patient in a 25% reduction scenario.

This annualized savings projection includes both direct clinical costs and downstream effects (ICU days, reintubation, and injury treatment), offset by the expected cost of the securement device.
