Swedish medical technology company Getinge has installed its complete surgical workflow portfolio at UT Health San Antonio Multispecialty and Research Hospital in San Antonio, Texas.
The installation includes Getinge's infection control equipment, including washers, sterilisers and ultrasonics, as well as surgical workplaces featuring operating room tables, lights and ceiling supply units.
Digital health solutions such as Torin OR Management, Tegris OR Integration and T-DOC Instrument Tracking have also been installed.
These integrated systems are designed to streamline workflows across the hospital, from the operating room to the intensive care unit and sterile processing department.
UT Health San Antonio's new hospital is due to open this month and will accommodate a diverse range of medical and surgical specialities.
By using Getinge's surgical workflows, the hospital aims to improve efficiency, surgical precision and patient safety across various care settings.
To achieve this, the hospital will accommodate a diverse range of medical and surgical specialities.
Getinge Surgical Workflows president Stephane Le Roy said: “This project is a big leap forward in improving patient care.
“It demonstrates how combining the right technology with efficient workflows can make a real difference, making it easier for healthcare teams to do their jobs and providing better outcomes for patients.”
Getinge North America president Patricia Fitch said: “We look forward to continuing to provide tailored solutions that effectively address the unique challenges faced by today’s hospitals.”
Getinge recently marked the inauguration of two hybrid operating rooms at ASST Sette Laghi hospital in Varese, Italy, in partnership with Siemens Healthineers.
These ORs are designed for complex procedures that require coordination between multiple surgical teams and the use of diverse technologies.
They feature Getinge's Maquet Magnus operating tables, which are integrated with Siemens Healthineers' interventional X-ray systems.
Based in Gothenburg, Getinge provides products and solutions for hospitals and life science institutions across 40 countries.
