B. Braun and Ascom to set a new benchmark in driving digital transformation in healthcare by providing a harmonized and reliable data transfer to enhance the effectiveness of clinical workflow communication.
Did I document the last medications I have set-up for my patients? Such thoughts and the related uncertainty of having recorded the data correctly burden many health care professionals. Many devices in hospitals are not yet connected to the IT network, and the costs of missing integration are rising year by year. Not considered the time spent on the manual documentation. At the same time, many clinicians and hospital staff suffer from inefficient workflows, insufficient data flow, a broad range of medical alarms and time-consuming information exchange. In order to provide workflows without any interruptions, reduce inefficient manual documentation of data, and support fast treatment decisions, the hospital care team needs patient and device information right on time.
Providing a secure and precise exchange of clinical data is a challenge that B. Braun and Ascom are encouraged to take on.

Braun and Ascom and the connection to the Ascom Digistat Software Suite creates the foundation to optimize your workflow individually, enhance productivity and provide a coherent data flow.
