Why Centralized Surgical Instrument Management is Transforming Healthcare
Managing surgical instruments from a single location is a newer concept in the healthcare industry. It comes at a time where healthcare leaders are constantly trying to find new ways to run a more efficient health system without sacrificing patient care. Understanding the motives behind this shift can help other healthcare leaders assess how implementing centralization can benefit their own operations. Read more.
Protecting Surgical Instruments: The Impact of Water Quality on Sterilization
When it comes to surgery, every detail counts. This is especially true when it comes to the cleanliness and integrity of surgical instruments. However, there could be an invisible threat looming in your facility that could compromise the integrity of your procedures—the quality of water used to clean and sterilize these surgical instruments. In the most recent article of the Healthcare Insights Blog, we are helping to identify the impact of water quality on sterilization. Read more.
Improve Surgical Delays and Enhance SPD Workflows with Real-Time Location Systems
Coordination between the sterile processing department (SPD) and operating room (OR) can help keep the schedule of daily surgeries on track. Yet, despite the staff’s best efforts, invisible workflow inefficiencies can disrupt this flow. Missing surgical instrument sets, time-consuming manual tracking processes and a lack of transparency into the whereabouts of equipment can cause case delays, if not cancel some entirely. To address these challenges, the emergence of real-time location systems (RTLS) is set to modernize surgical workflows. Read more.
