关于客户
Newham University Hospital NHS Trust is an Acute NHS Trust based in Newham. It serves Newham’s 240,000 population but also provides services to the residents of Redbridge, Waltham Forest, Barking and Havering, City and Hackney and Tower Hamlets. The 379-bed Trust serves one of Britain’s most diverse, fastest growing and youngest populations, and has a huge responsibility to run efficiently and innovatively. The Trust has a total of 2,400 employees.
挑战
Newham University Hospital NHS Trust (NUHT) was facing challenges in managing information in a responsive manner. The process of collecting and analyzing data for monthly board papers, setting out KPIs and performance, was lengthy and inefficient. The Trust needed a system that could facilitate instant decision-making in an environment where even the smallest changes can have a huge impact on patients’ lives. For instance, if there was a sudden rise in demand for a certain medical procedure affecting operating room availability, the decision-makers couldn’t wait until an end of month report to analyze what could be done about it.
解决方案
In 2009, the Trust implemented QlikView, a Business Intelligence software, which has now become an integral part of almost everything NUHT does. Using the in-browser dashboard of QlikView, the Trust has completely changed the way information flows around the organization. The instant access the QlikView dashboard offers, allows immediate decision-making. So instead of the board members and clinicians dealing with issues on a monthly basis as the papers were published, they can constantly monitor performance and make changes in real time. The system is so intuitive to use that there is very little training needed, which means that anyone with access to the dashboard can see the data interpreted as visual charts and graphs.

Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
