Скачать или смотреть Reference Case: Total Concept for operating theatres convinces in the day-to-day hospital routine

Building a new center of ten operational theatres, the Ortenau Klinikum in Lahr Ettenheim relied on a total solution from Dräger. Providing major planning support during the implementation as well as one key contact, Dräger also offered a homogeneous fleet including ceiling supply units, lamps and monitors that allow ergonomic processes and reduce the workload for designers and builders.

The medical planner Hans-Georg Averdunk (from the Hospitaltechnik Planungsgesellschaft) sees many benefits: "The advantage of the overall concept is that all the elements of the operating theatre environment are perfectly aligned with one another." Moreover, the overall responsibility lies with the supplier, who also has a high level of identification and motivation that things are coordinated and implemented successfully.

Dr. Thomas Fösel is chief anesthetist in Lahr Ettenheim. He also sees tangible benefits for surgical services. Thanks to extensive imaging and integration of cameras in the lamps, the anesthesiologist could more actively participate during the operation. Dr. Thomas Fösel: "This way you can follow the course of the surgery more accurate and respond immediately in case of an emergency."

Hans-Jürgen Kargoll, Director of Nursing in Lahr underlines that the idea to rely on a total solution, when it comes to the equipment of the new operating rooms, has been proven right. "The results so far show that."
