Abstract

With the healthcare system facing substantial challenges and a heavy reliance on medical technologies to deliver improved patient outcomes, the need for innovative solutions that improve asset utilization is greater than ever.

In the technical context, biomedical engineering departments are being challenged to deliver more with less, and access to digital tools through strategic partnerships could unlock capacity, delivering better outcomes for equipment users, administrators and ultimately the patient. During this session, we examine a new set of tools that will assist biomedical engineering teams to deliver a faster, more proactive response with minimal impact to the care delivery pathway.
