Unified Communications Platform
Streamlining Surgical Video Management and
Collaboration
Modern operating rooms generate a large amount of visual content due to the increasing use of images and video- guided surgery. This data serves various purposes, including enriching patient records, facilitating medical education, enabling peer review and best practice sharing.
But without the right tools, managing and sharing this content can quickly become overwhelming for hospitals, ultimately affecting productivity and efficiency.
The Unified Communications Platform offers a seamless way to access and organise this valuable data. Designed for healthcare teams, it brings powerful yet user-friendly media management tools that support better collaboration, smoother workflows, and improved patient care.
Media Library
Managing visual data shouldn’t slow you down — it should support and strengthen patient care in the healthcare ecosystem. The Media Library in this platform makes capturing, organising, and accessing surgical images and videos easier and more efficient than ever.
The platform’s flexible APIs enable media acquisition from any *device, streamlining the process and ensuring data integrity.
Edit, Archive & Retrieve
The Unified Communications Platform offers a reliable and secure way to store, manage, and retrieve patient media — all while staying aligned with your organisation’s data retention policies and regulatory standards.
Built with long-term value in mind, the platform makes it easy to organise and preserve data for future use — whether for clinical reference, training, research, or tracking patient progress.
Collaboration Made Simple
Real-time consultations
Connect with colleagues instantly for quick consultations or second opinions, regardless of location. Use live video annotations to review, discuss, and explain in real time.
Multidisciplinary discussions
Facilitate discussions among specialists from various disciplines to coordinate patient care and treatment plans effectively.
Efficient knowledge sharing
Share live surgical procedures, lectures, or presentations with students or peers, enhancing medical education and training.
Remote expert consultation
Tap into expert insights from anywhere in the world through video
conferencing, gaining specialised knowledge.
Live 4K Streaming (Optional)
Stream high-quality 4K video from multiple Operating Rooms to a branded microsite. The platform also includes tools to manage events, handle registrations, and host live Q&A sessions with participants through a simple chat interface
By removing communication barriers and enabling real-time interaction, the platform helps teams work
smarter — driving better outcomes for hospitals and patients.
Common Challenges in Surgical Video Management
Data Silos
Surgical videos are often captured using various devices such as endoscopes, robotic systems, and MRI machines, each with its own storage formats and potential connectivity limitations.
Heavy File Sizes
High-definition recordings can take up significant space requiring significant storage capacity.
PACS Limitations
Traditional PACS systems may not support the storage of large video files.
Scattered & Insecure Storage
Without a centralised solution, videos often end up on USB drives or local devices, making them harder to retrieve and more prone to data loss.
Sharing Difficulties
Sharing videos for medical education and peer collaboration becomes cumbersome with scattered storage and incompatible formats.
