Balancing patient care and efficiency in the OR can be challenging with so many new priorities, safety concerns and protocols to consider.
Yet, treating every patient with the highest level of care is more important than ever. By addressing risk through evidence-based practices, you can help reduce the risk of surgical site infections and other complications which can impact factors such as productivity, access, quality and cost of patient care. 3M is here to support you with surgical resources and solutions so you can focus on what matters: delivering optimal outcomes.
Treating every patient with evidence-based solutions can help:
- Reduce complications
- Optimise patient flow
- Reduce costs due to additional treatment
- Decrease readmissions
