关于客户
Sahlgrenska University Hospital is a university and regional hospital located in Göteborg, Sweden. It provides emergency and basic care for its 700,000 inhabitants in the region. The hospital is regarded as Northern Europe’s largest hospital with over 2,700 beds divided into 165 wards and approximately 17,000 employees. The hospital's activity costs approximately €800 million a year. At Sahlgrenska, associate professor Daniel Stålhammar at the Neurosurgery clinic works to improve and optimize the treatment of severe skull injuries. He is one of the leading clinicians in the project of applying computer technology to track, monitor and analyze medical journal data.
挑战
Sahlgrenska University Hospital faced the challenge of integrating data from Siemens Melior patient journal system with five other hospital systems. The hospital needed to provide medical professionals with faster access to critical information to identify and treat any complications from cranial surgery. The existing system was not efficient in measuring patient flows, groupings, and costs. The information about the patient was spread in different places, making it extremely difficult to get the basic data for decision making fast enough.
解决方案
Sahlgrenska University Hospital deployed QlikView to 25 employees across 2 functional areas. With QlikView, medical professionals are now able to analyze patient history, treatments, procedures, and survivability data - all focused on improving the ability to identify and treat complications such as meningitis from treating a severe head injury. With QlikView Server, Sahlgrenska University Hospital handles massive amounts of data that is aggregated from Siemens Melior and an array of other medical systems. Daniel Stålhammar has now built a system based on specialized QlikView applications, where he pulls the required information from six separate databases in a matter of seconds.

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.
