This study introduces an intelligent system for managing high-value operating room consumables. The new technology enhances efficiency, reduces costs, and improves safety in hospitals.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Management
- Medical Technology
- Supply Chain Optimization
Background:
- Operating rooms (ORs) are critical hospital hubs with high demand for medical consumables.
- Increasing variety of consumables complicates traditional OR management.
- Existing management methods are insufficient for modern OR needs.
Purpose of the Study:
- To design an intelligent management system for high-value OR consumables.
- To leverage Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for improved OR operations.
- To address the limitations of traditional consumable management in ORs.
Main Methods:
- Implementation of an intelligent management system integrating IoT and AI technologies.
- Focus on high-value consumable materials within the operating room environment.
- Development of a system to streamline the tracking and management process.
Main Results:
- Improved operational efficiency for high-value consumable materials in the OR.
- Significant reduction in manpower costs associated with consumable management.
- Enhanced safety protocols and outcomes related to consumable usage.
Conclusions:
- The intelligent management system effectively addresses challenges in OR consumable management.
- Integration of IoT and AI offers a viable solution for optimizing OR resource allocation.
- The system demonstrates potential for cost savings and improved patient safety in healthcare settings.
