Data Analytics & Continuous Improvement
Closed feedback loop
Designed to improve on the one-time consultant evaluation of the perioperative process that yields temporary gains and prior-state regression
Use of data analytics and continuous evaluation of changes, which allows for application of lean-management principles in the operating room
Accounts for variation in physician practice without universal standardization, while focusing on cost-savings and value-based decisions
Usage of “optimal” card, tray, and supply usage to improve profit margins

A transformed surgical process results in a significant cost savings for the hospital system
Lean-management approach ensures the highest-value and most cost-effective methods are continually implemented
Improve hospital margins while enhancing delivery of care and ensuring optimal patient outcomes
Real-time Performance Data
Use of machine learning and predictive modeling to make informed decisions

Instrument usage and tray rationalization
Preference card optimization and management
Disposable supply selection and usage
Sustainment of the process to ensure lean-management principles are upheld
