The recent Webinar Wednesday presentation “Next-Level Patient Monitor Testing: Why it may be time to reevaluate your testing strategies” by Elliot Weldon and Justin Ross was a hit. It was the most popular webinar this year with 396 registrations and 167 logged in for the live presentation. A recording of the Fluke-sponsored is available for on-demand viewing. The webinar is eligible for 1 credit from the ACI.
The presenters did a great job as they cast a spotlight on streamlining patient monitor testing. They discussed current testing strategies and examined the potential of automation to perform equal or more thorough testing within the same timeframe.
In this session, attendees learned more about how to navigate the decision-making process for procedure management and the power that comes from harnessing extensive testing data.
Attendees were able to experience a live demonstration of OneQA Workflow Automation Software that showcased its capacity for visually guided workflows to ensure that no step is overlooked. It is perfect for ensuring consistent training for new technicians while capturing the wisdom of seasoned biomeds.
The webinar highlighted the documentation advantages that come with standardization, which simplifies the preventative maintenance process and helps ensure patient safety, in a timelier manner.
A Q&A session provided additional insights and knowledge to attendees.
Attendees were asked, “How much new information did you receive from today’s webinar?”
“I feel it’s always a good idea to see how other techs go about doing things,” said Scott Davis, Tech 2, Cleveland Clinic Akron General.
“The webinar was a good refresher on PM of a patient monitor,” shared Joseph Trujillo, Biomedical Engineering Manager, Hoag Hospital Newport Beach.
“It confirmed a lot of what I already knew. It was good to see the evolving tech related to biomed testing equipment,” said Dana Tomczak, Biomed, Eastern Plumas Health Care.
“A lot of information that has improved my evaluation skills for patient monitors. And will make me a better tech than I was,” said Bahati Surprise Rian, Biomedical Technician, Children’s Surgical Hospital.
“I learned about an automation system that can be used, although I have seen it before I haven’t been able to see it in use. Something like this could change the world of testing,” said Lewis Brazier, Senior Electrical Medical Engineering Technician, East Kent Hospitals (UK).
