One of the main challenges operating rooms currently face is poor room turnover times. Every minute an OR sits underutilized creates financial and operational strains on hospital surgical departments. Learn how a leading health-care center in Los Angeles leveraged a combination of real-time technologies, AI-machine learning and mobile communication to reduce its overall room turnover times, through automated alerts triggered by patients’ RFID wristbands. Utilizing real-time data from patient flow and insights into scheduled surgery times, care teams were able to collaborate and plan their workflows and time more efficiently, based on greater awareness into what is happening in real time.
