COVER STORY
improved clinical outcomes and reduced length of stay.
Experienced intensive care specialists collaborate with clinicians to find the right combination of technologies and setups for their unique care environment. With workflow expertise and hands-on training, Getinge aims to increase productivity, staff confidence, and enhance the ability to save lives.
Cardiovascular procedure solutions Getinge’s cardiovascular therapies and solutions are designed to ensure more effective interventions, where patients experience better outcomes and faster recovery. As a partner for cardiovascular and cardiothoracic procedures, the organisation offers technology and knowledge to improve the clinical experience before, during, and after surgery. Its solutions are said to support faster patient recoveries, minimise infections, and reduce risk of complications. According to Getinge, this is why customers consistently experience easy to use solutions, suited to meet their needs, the moment it’s needed.
The products for open heart surgery, advanced monitoring technologies and minimally invasive therapies make it easier for clinicians to conduct successful surgeries and enhance visibility - and awareness - of patient status. To support this expertise in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, Getinge provides the Endoscopic Vessel Harvesting (EVH) systems. There have been over 2.5 million EVH procedures worldwide, and each new generation of this technology has been developed in partnership with the specialists who use them in daily practice.1 This procedure is at the forefront of technological advances that improve vessel harvesting for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The EVH procedure leads to faster recovery, better clinical outcomes, and enhanced patient satisfaction.

implementation of all project phases; ensuring even the most complex projects are clear and traceable at all times. With a combination of careful planning and professional project management, Getinge says it lays the foundation for investment assurance and future-proofing, including designs that are economical and flexible. This means customers are always in a position to respond timely to trends, technologies and requirements.
Flexible commercial solutions
Coping with day-to-day demands can be challenging. Capital budgets are often cut to pay for unforeseen rises in day-to-day spending - leaving little scope to replace older infrastructure. To manage rising demand, hospitals need to invest in new technology and innovations, so they can treat more patients, more efficiently in the future. However, with capital resources limited, or committed years ahead, they may not have the money to invest. The new flexible commercial solutions offering from Getinge, together with the NHS, help find a solution that enables Trusts to get the equipment they need, when they need it, with complete certainty over costs. The customer can choose how long they want the contract to run, depending on their needs and priorities. They specify the levels of service they need to deliver the best patient care and, once these levels are set, they will be part of the service level agreement in the contract. Getinge provides technicians at the location whenever they are needed to deliver on this promise.
Getinge can develop solutions for any - or all - hospitals settings, from A&E, through the intensive care unit and operating theatre, to the SSD, providing equipment and know- how that seeks to improve patient outcomes and support clinical staff, making their lives easier and more efficient.
