With three new Hybrid operating rooms installed at Morgantown-based West Virginia University, Getinge recently installed its 1,000 Hybrid OR worldwide.
Here are four key points:
1. The Hybrid ORs combine a traditional operating room with a catheterization lab and imaging suite designed for patients requiring vascular or structural heart procedures.
2. The advanced room design allows for a patient to transition from an interventional to a surgical procedure without needing to be transported to another setting. Additionally, the Hybrid ORs are designed for faster diagnosis and treatment with improved workflow.
3. Getinge helps hospitals plan and install complex Hybrid ORs and address implantation challenges, including coordinating and integrating equipment provided by different vendors into a functional space.
4. Gentinge's 3-D OR planning tool also helps hospitals conceptualize and visualize the Hybrid OR before installation occurs. The company provides solutions for operating rooms, intensive-care units, sterilization departments as well as life science companies and institutions.
