TRAINING AND CONFIGURATION OF COMPLEX MOBILE MEDICAL DEVICES

 

Medical equipment provide essential data to allow doctors and nurses across the world to detect and treat the human body for sickness, disease and injury. As technology and medical knowledge advance, so too does the equipment – with single medical devices now capable of performing multiple medical procedures and reducing clutter in the often-limited space of surgeries and hospitals. For example, the Getinge PulsioFlex is a modular platform with intelligent visualisation of advanced haemodynamic patient monitoring and can be adapted to each patient’s individual need at any time.

With a powerful range of capabilities, Getinge was looking for a way to effectively train doctors and nurses to harness the potential of the device to save lives. Since the device is portable, they also wanted a solution that could be re-used in daily real-life scenarios to replace complicated user manuals that inevitably get left in a draw to gather dust.

“With essential information always at hand, we see this technology as providing a huge benefit for the medical industry to significantly reduce the risk of errors and save time when configuring and installing our advanced monitoring devices”.

ONE APP – MULTIPLE PROCEDURES MADE EASY

 

Getinge are now using REFLEKT ONE to create Augmented Reality appli­ca­tions to support doctors and hospital staff with trai­ning and confi­gu­ra­tion of their medical devices. Compa­tible with iOS , Pulsio­Flex AR guides staff and trai­nees through the setup of multiple Pulsio­Flex proce­dures. Using the smart­phone or tablet’s inbuilt camera, Pulsio­Flex AR projects crisp 3D visua­li­sa­tions of the tubes, plugs and connec­tions onto the real Pulsio­Flex device with step-by-step inst­ruc­tions and infor­ma­tion. Hospital staff can now quickly and effi­ci­ently confi­gure the device to specific patient needs in both static and dynamic scen­a­rios.

What’s more, the immer­sive nature of the app enhances infor­ma­tion reten­tion so that the initial trai­ning is more effec­tive. With REFLEKT ONE, Getinge are now able to add addi­tional AR proce­dures to their exis­ting appli­ca­tions and create new apps them­selves for their entire product line. Pulsio­Flex AR is also avail­able as a sepa­rate Holo­Lens appli­ca­tion.
