Carestation™ Insights Case study

In 2016, GE teamed up with Prof. Dr. Ross Kennedy, Anesthesiologist at Christchurch Hospital, New Zealand, and Associate Professor at University of Otago, New Zealand, and Dr. Richard French, Anesthesiologist and Clinical Director at Christchurch Hospital, to use the Carestation Insights platform and its Agent Cost Dashboard to discover previously unidentified opportunities during the induction period to further reduce an already low mean fresh gas flow rate at their facility. Already low mean fresh gas flow rates during agent delivery were decreased by an additional 13% to an astounding 0.745 l/min after the intervention¹
