MGH expands OR dashboard from LiveData

Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) has expanded its deployment of LiveData’s OR-Dashboard, and incorporated its functionality into plans for future OR design, construction and renovation.

Initially installed in the MGH Operating Room of the Future, LiveData OR-Dashboard will now be used in general purpose operating rooms, which meets IT infrastructure requirements, according to the Cambridge, Mass.-based LiveData.

LiveData’s OR-Dashboard is now live in two operating rooms, and has been implemented in one post-anesthesia care unit, a recovery room, with three more scheduled this fall, said the firm.
