Digital support for high- performance teams
At the core of successful team performance is reliable information sharing and optimal access to high-quality, contemporary resources. With the right systems in place to deliver the right information to the right people, perioperative teams are aligned and empowered to perform at the highest level. Incision Assist is a mobile app providing a
dedicated platform for teams to prepare, align and interact. Using familiar, intuitive technology, customised protocols and key perioperative information can be accessed at any time, from any place. Patient preparations, positionings, draping, equipment setups, materials lists, surgical steps, and more, are organised per procedure and per specialty. Assist enables team leads and managers to easily curate and distribute updates, providing tight and effective version control and the ability to implement emerging best practices rapidly. Temporary and locum staff can quickly and easily check workflows at a new hospital or department, down to the level of surgeon- specific preferences and patient-specific variations. Onboarding can be streamlined through optimised team-wide alignment and standardisation. Going forward, Assist provides a framework
to build a custom digital infrastructure that captures unit-specific workflows and changes how perioperative teams access, organise and share critical information.
