conditioning, medical gases and electrical connections for maintenance and repair. In addition, ceiling components are easy to disassemble, facilitating changes to the ceiling’s integrated air-supply unit, operating lights, ceiling service units and room lighting when expanding or modifying room configurations. In addition, VARIOP’s large, smooth surfaces are easy to clean and disinfect to help speed room turnaround. Powder- coated finishes can be specified to inacti- vate or inhibit bacterial growth. Walters: With years of clinical and service specialists supporting customers, GE Healthcare brings clinical expertise in planning OR suites with an equip- ment offering to serve a broad range of


When a facility upgrades its surgical suite(s), the remodeling plans should also include smart storage designed specifically for pro- tecting surgical supplies and instrumentation. Ian Loper, Vice President of Sales and Market- ing at DSI talks about the customized storage his company provides for today’s hybrid ORs.


HPN: What types of surgical suites are well-suited for the type of storage you sell and why? Loper: DSI specializes in custom designed High Density Storage Systems for Hybrid OR suites and any other suite where procedures take place. When sterility, space constraints, and the availability of supplies are of the ut- most importance, DSI will come in and design a custom configured storage system to en- hance work flow and efficiencies in the room.


How does one specialty OR dif fer from another in terms of need and customi- zation? Every OR is different in terms of workflow and space constraints so DSI conducts a site survey of each room and then designs a High Density storage system to maximize the available space within the room to ensure efficient work flow for the nursing staff. PAR levels within each room tend to be different as well so we custom configure our High Density system around PAR levels and supply dimensions.


How has storage improved in recent years, especially in ways that complement the modern surgical suite? Our storage systems are an upgrad- ed replacement for the department to achieve peak sterility and operat- ing efficiencies within the room.


clinical specialties. GE Healthcare has a new line of surgical C-arms, OEC Elite, which feature advanced flat-panel detec- tors with choice and clinical versatility. From dedicated surgical suites to general surgery with broad range of patient case mix, GE Healthcare’s OEC Elite C-arms are a smart choice for surgical teams. GE Healthcare also offers tables, monitors, lights and pendants that are modular and expandable with configuration flexibility — perfect for meeting healthcare provid- ers’ dynamic needs. This breadth enables a customer to have a more streamlined planning process and single source pur- chasing of primary surgical equipment. Young: Earlier this year, we introduced the ByDesign Experience powered by


State-of-the-art surgical suite storage


We often come across suites that are out of compliance as far as sterility is concerned with wood or rusted steel cabinetry and we replace the cabinets with our custom designed stain- less steel systems.


What would you want planning com- mittees/purchasing teams to know about this product line? Why is it a good investment? DSI’s outside sales force are the subject mat- ter experts as storage consultants. We do the heavy lifting during the project planning stage as it relates to the onsite survey, design work, AutoCAD capabilities, installation of the equipment, and the inventory transfer from the old system and into our high density system. Our Product and Service’s offering is a full turn-key program so the staff can stay focused on patient care and their daily responsibilities.


Does the sterile processing staff inter- act with these cabinets? If so, please describe. DSI’s core competencies address both the profit center (OR) and the cost center (CS/ SPD) within the hospital so we end up spend- ing more than 80 percent of our time working with both departments.


HoloLens. This cutting-edge technology allows us to virtually design an operat- ing room to exact specifications with our proprietary software. Our customers then wear a Microsoft HoloLens headset which brings their future OR vision to life right before their eyes.


We’ve invested in this technology be- cause we believe that optimal operating room design is critically important. It is included as part of our overall con- sultative design process and there is no charge for this capability. Incorporating ByDesign and HoloLens into the design process will help to shorten timelines, reduce costs, and increase predictabil- ity of the project as a whole. Clinicians provide feedback on the room design and layout which is then provided to equipment planners and architects im- mediately, shortening the time it takes to make meaningful, clinically-relevant changes. We believe that all of these factors ultimately combine to improve patient outcomes. Eddie Mitchell, CEO, Image Stream


Medical: We believe that integration requires an enterprise-wide vision and approach. We focus on the capabilities to support connections across the enterprise, from ENT to ORs to a facility’s most ad- vanced hybrid spaces. Organizations ap- preciate the time and money in providing a single solution that allows clinicians to have a consistant yet custom workflow that meets its enterprise standards. We make sophisticated technology
