Software for Smooth Flow of Information to OR

(Tuttlingen, Germany). Siemens has entered into a worldwide cooperation with Karl Storz to bundle the two companies' development efforts for an integrated OR system. The OR1 from Karl Storz offers equipment management and control throughout the OR's sterile environment, including networking of endoscopic and surgical components; integration of peripherals, from the OR table and generator, to telephones and room lighting; and interfacing of image and video communication--all with an ergonomic design to reduce stress for the surgical team.

syngoOR brings essential IT capabilities to the OR, providing direct access on one workstation to patient data and diagnostic imaging information while also offering an intuitive user interface, as well as standardized documentation and archiving. "This OR solution being offered by Siemens and Karl Storz will provide a comprehensive and uniform solution for the entire clinical process,” said Holger Schmidt, president of the Siemens Special Products division.
