关于客户
The Ottawa Paramedic Service is a performance-driven organization that provides emergency medical services in Ottawa, Canada. The service is responsible for responding to emergency calls and providing immediate medical care to patients. The stakes of its decisions are extremely high, with life and death literally on the line. Therefore, making intelligent use of real-time data is critical to its success. The service generates millions of rows of data every week, which can be used to improve patient response times and effectively plan resource availability. However, the service was facing challenges with its static and siloed data, which was hindering its ability to make informed decisions and provide efficient care.
挑战
The Ottawa Paramedic Service was facing challenges with its static and siloed data. The service was relying on a reactive dispatch procedure for proactive care, which was not efficient. Hospitals had little access to information about when ambulances would be arriving, what injuries the patient had sustained, and what treatment had already been provided by paramedics. This lack of information led to a manual process susceptible to delays. With millions of rows of data being generated every week, the Ottawa Paramedic Service knew they could do more than plan for the next 24-hour period. They needed a way to improve patient response times, and effectively plan resourcing availability.
解决方案
The Ottawa Paramedic Service implemented Qlik Sense® to transform their approach to patient transport and care. The solution enabled the service to create synchronized, real-time dashboards for hospitals and dispatchers. This provided comprehensive visibility, from ambulance location and system delays, to patient injury, status, and expected arrival. The service was able to deploy ambulances with greater precision and send patients to the best hospital for their condition. The solution also enabled the service to consolidate disparate sources of data to exponentially speed up analytics at the corporate level. The process of examining and manually interpreting the millions of rows of data generated by the service once took hours, days, or even weeks. Now leaders are able to see the whole picture instantaneously, allowing them to make confident, intelligent policy adjustments in mere minutes.

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.
