Major milestone for vascular unit

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust’s vascular service has successfully completed its integration onto one site, with the re-location of some services from the Leicester Royal Infirmary (LRI) to the city’s Glenfield Hospital.

The departmental move is part of a £13.2 million major equipment upgrade provided through the Trust’s vendorindependent Asteral Select contract. The project formed part of a development plan that includes a purpose-built, state-of-the-art hybrid theatre facility and the re-location of a number of items of diagnostic imaging equipment. The hybrid theatre incorporates three ‘ultramodern’ pieces of equipment provided on a vendor-neutral basis with the support, knowledge, and expertise, of Asteral’s Implementation and Technology team: a Siemens Axiom Artis Zeego; a GE Healthcare MacLab; and a Medrad Mark 7 Arterion injector. The new equipment has enhanced the department’s ability to undertake increasingly complex activity, improved  patient pathways, and reduced clinical risk. Asteral provided complete project support for the redesign of the department, from design, through build, to equipment installation.
