OR1™ NEO – The new design of excellence
OR1™ NEO is the next step in the evolution of the OR into a safe and efficient space for performing surgical procedures.
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
Aristotle
This is what OR1™ NEO stands for:
- Ease of use: With the central control and the 1:1 Realistic User Interface of the selected unit the OR1™ system already offers obviously a high ease of use. OR1™ NEO appears now “reborn” with a new shaped user interface – enhanced and more intuitive on the base of our experience and customer feedback. The new user interface design is optimized both for the special requirements in an OR environment and for touch interaction. The consistent interaction paradigm provides short learning curves, user friendliness, safe, fast and accurate use as well as a high level of user satisfaction. Creating simplicity is anything but simple.
- Formula for success: Quality has always been the fundamental key of setting standards. Consequently, three central modules have established OR integration as a safety standard – system integration with SCB, data management and documentation with AIDA, as well as communication and data transfer with IRIS Audio-Video solutions.
- Science behind the appliance: New concepts like the integration of the Surgical Safety Checklist according to WHO offer even more support for the surgical team; as well, the editable software solution KARL STORZ OR1™ Checklist can be adjusted to various standard procedures and guide even non-skilled staff through the single steps. These new concepts have a direct impact on workflow. So the surgeon and his co-workers know what to do, this makes them feel safe and so they can work in a calm environment. This attitude is recognized by the patient and adds to their perceived safety.
- Confidence through competence: Medical professionals bear a high responsibility: nothing less than the life and health of their patients is in their hands. In order to enable the OR team to fully focus on this major task, the technology applied, its reliability and the fulfilment of the special electrical safety requirements for medical electrical systems are key elements. With OR1™, the customer gets a solution that is really designed for the requirements in an operating theatre. And this design is a real and tangible investment in safety.
Since the very beginning, the patient and his treatment has been in focus of all KARL STORZ developments – in KARL STORZ OR1™ they come together in better care, better treatment, less trauma, less anaesthesia time and best safety. And we always strive for more.
The innovative spirit of KARL STORZ keeps us in pace for the continuous evolution of OR1™ NEO.
