At Starkstrom’s state-of-the-art demonstration and training facility, the latest vital infrastructure and new technologies can be explored, touched, and configured – helping to visualise and optimise the operating theatres of the future.
Operating theatres (OTs) are becoming increasingly intelligent, incorporating technologies such as 3D navigation and imaging, AI, and augmented reality. Understanding how these solutions can be safely and effectively integrated within the healthcare space is vital to the future proofing of healthcare facilities. This increasing complexity was a driver for Starkstrom’s investment in its demonstration and training facility, where key stakeholders can interact with the latest OT technologies within a dedicated environment that showcases how these solutions can improve patient safety, advance surgery, enhance efficiency, and minimise vital infrastructure and OT downtime.
“Some of our best ‘showrooms’ are the hospitals where our vital infrastructure and OT equipment has been installed – new customers can visit these facilities and see the technology in situ,” explains Starkstrom managing director, Guy Pomroy. “However, vital infrastructure and OTs are becoming increasingly complex, and we wanted to create a facility that would help clinicians make effective and informed decisions on how their technology could be configured.
“Within a week of opening the facility, we welcomed a number of clinicians and other stakeholders to the facility and the feedback was really positive. They can be hands on with the technology in an environment where it doesn’t matter if you make a mistake.”
