In the operating room, distractions are dangerous. Unfortunately, as the medical industry advances, it is becoming more and more difficult for surgical techs to focus on their jobs as operating rooms get crowded with cords, computers, devices, and systems. UwBITS 5000 (the Ultra-wide Band Integrated Telemetry System) reduces distractions in the operating room by making it easier for staff to locate and get data from loose surgical devices. By streamlining operating rooms’ wireless devices onto a single data platform, we can reduce risk and allow techs to focus on their job: saving lives.
