Inefficient XXX hrs/yr inventorying
workflow “Where is my instrument” problem

5. What if your hospital…
 Could have ZERO retained surgical items?

6. What if your hospital…
 Could know how many surgical
instruments it owns?

7. What if your hospital…
 Could have full control on instrument
life cycle?

8. What if your hospital…
 Could assure surgeons that no defective
items end up in the set?

9. What if your hospital…
 Could save $300,000 or more on
surgical instruments purchase?

18. Enhance Patient Safety
 A frequency of up to 1:1500 RSIs during intra abdominal procedures
 Most (83%) RSIs end up in reoperations
 1:8 procedures there are counts discrepancy which take on average
16 minutes to resolve
 Decrease use of X-Ray
 Free up time for more patient care at the OR
 Proactive alerts to ensure correct Decontamination & Sterilization
processes are adhered
 Recall management on instrument level
 Reprocessing single-use device management
