Hospital Care — Healthcare Technology

Hospital?Care

Put progress
into practice.

Apple devices unlock new levels of mobility, efficiency and collaboration for clinicians. Care teams can treat patients on the fly and zip through demanding workloads with ease. When providers have the freedom and time to work on their own terms, they can focus on what really matters — their patients.

Mobility

On the go.
Around the?clock.

Simplify communication and collaboration for your care?team.

Mobility

Mobile communication. Apple Watch, iPhone and iPad help nurses and doctors stay in sync with each other and their patients. Apps like Epic Haiku and Epic Rover make voice calling and secure messaging seamless.

Lighter, faster patient rounds. iPad and iPhone apps allow care teams to conduct bedside rounds without being tethered to workstations. Nurses can collect real-time data, conduct quality audits and safety checklists, and update patients’ health information.

Alerts and alarms. Apple Watch and iPhone apps work together to help clinicians quickly receive, triage and escalate urgent alerts and alarms — which can make a significant impact on a patient’s outcome.

On-demand reference tools. iPhone and iPad apps give care teams easy access to on-demand decision support materials that can help them determine the best treatment plan for a patient. Apps can equip clinicians with the latest medical knowledge on drug interactions, dosing, risk score and more.

NYU Langone Health’s Emergency Room. A study at NYU Langone Health found that iPhone and Apple Watch notifications helped care teams reduce length of stay and wait times in the emergency department. Care teams used Apple Watch to alert providers about test results, allowing doctors to make decisions and deliver care faster.

Patient records. At your fingertips.

Medication scanning with iPhone. Nurses use the Epic Rover or Stryker Sync app to make sure the right patient gets the right medication at the right time. They simply scan the patient’s wristband to ID the patient, and then scan the medication, blood product or breast milk. This scanning feature increases patient safety and eliminates the need for tethered scanners, allowing for more personal interactions between clinicians and patients.

Easy documentation. iPhone and iPad work with electronic health records (EHR) apps to give providers easy access to patient records on the go. Nurses can document a patient’s vitals as they are taking them with voice dictation on iPhone. And paramedics can update a patient’s status onsite with iPad. This flexibility saves providers time so that they can deliver quality care even?faster.

Work on any device. All Apple devices are built to work together, so care teams can move from one to the other without missing a beat. Providers just need to be signed in with the same Apple Account to seamlessly move between?them.

Capture and review patient
progress on the fly.

Capture and view high-resolution images. The built-in iPhone and iPad cameras work with apps to let nurses securely photograph a patient’s wound during treatment and store it in the patient’s record. The high-resolution Retina displays on iPhone and iPad allow doctors to view a patient’s images directly on their devices for faster, on-the-go decision-making.

Portable ultrasounds with Butterfly iQ+. iPhone and iPad work with a portable ultrasound device called Butterfly iQ+ to make point-of-care ultrasounds possible nearly anywhere — from remote settings to emergency vehicles. iPhone and iPad can process ultrasound images on device, which enhances patient privacy and?security.

Blood loss estimation with Triton AI. Care teams use the cameras on iPhone and the Triton AI app to estimate surgical blood loss in real time. Triton AI helps clinicians detect haemorrhage early, in turn decreasing post-partum blood transfusions and labour costs.

Streamline patients’ hospital stay from check?in to?checkout.

Seamless patient journeys. iPad helps care teams streamline patients’ hospital stay — from registration to discharge. The familiar iPad interface can ease the hospital admission process. Patients can seamlessly navigate test results and progress updates with apps like Epic’s MyChart Bedside and Lana Health. Hospitals using iPad have found that the device encourages patients to be more engaged in their health, which bodes better for their treatment and discharge plans.

Keep patients engaged and entertained. Hospitals use iPad to help patients communicate easier with their care teams and loved ones. Patients use iPad for requests and can even control environmental room settings like lights, shades and temperature. Apple TV works seamlessly with iPad to give patients a healthy dose of distraction, not to mention virtual consults.

Efficiency

Practice. At full?speed.

Review detailed medical images anywhere, anytime.

Efficiency

Software displaying the Visage app, which radiologists use to interpret large diagnostic files.

Zip through large diagnostic files. Apple silicon takes DICOM imaging to a new level. The incredible processing power of Mac allows radiologists to interpret large diagnostic files at unprecedented speeds with apps like Falcon MD, OsiriX MD and Visage. It also enables doctors to improve surgical planning and visualisation with apps that create 3D photorealistic volume rendering.

See diagnostic images in more detail. The Liquid Retina XDR display on MacBook Pro features superior pixel density, so providers can effortlessly analyse complex diagnostic images in vivid detail.

Go all day and then some. With up to 18 hours of battery life on MacBook Air and up to 24 hours on MacBook Pro, clinicians can speed through intensive image interpretation without a power adapter.*

Automate clinical notes with AI.

Understand disease on a whole new level. Oxford Nanopore is a software platform that can read, or sequence, the DNA and RNA of any living being in real time. This information gives the scientific and medical communities insights into human health that can influence how we treat and understand disease and?pathogens.

Powerful sequencing. Apple silicon provides researchers with just as much rapid computational horsepower as they might find in a large lab — which allows them to conduct real-time genomic sequencing with Oxford Nanopore in the field.

Impact. Mac makes it possible for doctors and scientists using Oxford Nanopore to uncover world-changing insights — from faster cancer detection to genetic disease treatment to pandemic preparedness.
