Digital Integration is an innovative combination of software and hardware technology, which allows facilities to connect their equipment, applications and information systems together to achieve faster, more streamlined and ultimately improved patient outcomes. The ability to create an interconnected facility allows caregivers from all departments of the healthcare facility to have access to, and share critical patient data at the click of a button.
Traditionally, facilities would use paper filing systems, x-ray light viewers and other aging processes to allow staff to fulfill their responsibilities. With the introduction of digital integration within the operating theatre, clinicians now have the ability to route images and video to multiple screens, stream surgeries to outside surgical consultants, retrieve and send images to the radiology department and locate and update patient records all from the one screen in the operating theatre.
