In hospitals effective collaboration and communication between clinical departments and persons is crucial while diagnosing and treating patients. Due to the complexity of patient’s symptoms and diseases, diversity of the organization, the equipment, etc. many workflow steps can be optimized.
Problem areas
- unavailability of relevant patient data
- unavailability of equipment (e.g. surgery tools, infusion pumps, imaging equipment, OR room)
- unavailability of required staff for various reasons (e.g. previous procedure took longer)
Leading to errors and inefficiencies to be addressed by making the right data available at the right place and time during an intervention, and by using the data for retrospective analysis and feedback.
