Stryker launched its Pulse Intelligent Delivery Platform, which is designed to improve foot and ankle procedures performed at ASCs by monitoring and replenishing products.
The platform maps customer preferences and makes suggestions for replenishing inventory as well as replenishing orders automatically based on use and demand, according to a Sept. 14 news release from the company.
"As surgical procedures continue to migrate to the ASC setting, both surgeons and administrators are looking for ways to streamline their operational efficiency while increasing the reliability of their surgical equipment," Bruce Cohen, MD, CEO of OrthoCarolina, said in the release. "Efficiency and reliability are exactly what Stryker’s Pulse platform provides for forefoot procedures in the ASC."
