AIG Hospitals Brings Digital Surgical Review to Operating Rooms
A hospital in Hyderabad called AIG Hospitals is getting a new digital system for its operating rooms.
The system lets doctors record videos when they perform surgery.
After an operation, the surgical team can watch the video to review what happened.
This helps doctors discuss cases and learn from each other.
The technology comes from a large healthcare company called Johnson & Johnson.
It is called the Polyphonic Surgery platform.
It keeps surgery videos, case notes, learning materials and feedback all in one place.
This makes it easier for surgeons, nurses and trainees to work together and practise.
It is also used to train new doctors more effectively.
AIG Hospitals is one of the first hospitals in India and the Asia-Pacific region to try this system.
AIG Hospitals will introduce a digital system that securely records and reviews surgical procedures.
The Hyderabad-based hospital is collaborating with Johnson & Johnson on the initiative.
The system uses J&J's Polyphonic Surgery platform, combining surgical videos, case reviews, learning resources and feedback in one place.
AIG says it will be among the early hospitals in India and the Asia-Pacific region to adopt the technology.
The hospital will evaluate the system with surgeons, operating room teams, residents, IT professionals and administrators to improve clinical practices and operating-room efficiency.
