OPTIMIZE SURGICAL EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY

In dynamic surgical environments, efficiency and outcomes go hand in hand.

Improve Efficiency in the OR


In the OR, every second counts.

It’s where your surgical teams drive better clinical outcomes for your patients. It’s also where you drive significant portions of your revenue—and your costs.1

That’s why hospitals are closely monitoring everything from percentage of ORs used to first-case start times—and, of course, patient outcomes.

To make an impact on the operating room metrics that matter, surgical teams need to work more efficiently—without sacrificing patient safety or recovery times. Discover how we’re helping you make the most of every moment.

Enhancing Patient and Caregiver Safety in the OR


In the OR, connected care is about more than integrating medical devices. It’s about giving your teams the surgical tools they need to perform more procedures, more safely and efficiently—so they can help more people.

Minimally invasive surgeries are on the rise, making up 67% of general OR procedures in 2017.2 And manufacturers are responding with innovative surgical technologies to support the demand:
