Adopting a New Healthcare Culture: Technology-Driven Workflows

By Andrea Facini

Increasing patient demand, barriers to access, and elevated costs are pushing healthcare providers to reconsider traditional clinical and operational workflows to meet growing challenges and improve patient outcomes. Artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and digital therapeutic solutions are streamlining processes and expanding the possibilities for reimagining care delivery. As these technologies converge, the shift from complex high-cost interventions toward lighter more adaptive care models creates opportunity to better meet the needs of diverse patient populations.

Lean AI: Accelerate Engineering with AI and Lean Principles

By Adam Hesse

How does combining AI with Lean Management significantly improve efficiency in MedTech engineering? Much like IDEs or CAD tools before it, AI is becoming an essential enabler in reducing friction throughout the product development lifecycle—from onboarding and requirements generation to coding and testing—ultimately enhancing both productivity and innovation. Identifying and targeting inefficiencies using Lean principles, MedTech engineering organizations can unlock AI’s full potential to accelerate development and deliver higher-quality healthcare technologies.

Fork in the road: Conavi Medical’s route less traveled hopes to create a new standard in the fast-moving imaging market:

Angioplasty and stenting procedures (or percutaneous coronary interventions/PCIs) are performed more than four million times around the world every year to open up blockages in coronary arteries to allow the heart to receive proper blood flow. Most of these procedures — 80-85 percent — are only guided by traditional angiography, an x-ray of the blood vessels that requires a contrast agent to be flushed into the heart to identify where the blockages are.

Leveraging AI for Transforming Patient Care and Enhancing Clinician Experience in EMRs

By Josh Sol

As healthcare pushes forward in digital transformation, AI has emerged as a critical tool in optimizing electronic medical records. EMRs remain both vital and frustrating. Clinicians wrestle with usability, while patients struggle with engagement and access. By integrating AI thoughtfully and securely, we can create a more intuitive, efficient and user-centric experience for both groups.
