RLDatix has announced that it has acquired the medical equipment SaaS database, oneSource, extending its portfolio of patient safety and risk management solutions.
The IT solution provides online access to continuously-updated instructions for use (IFU) and preventative maintenance documentation, helping healthcare organisations comply with global accreditation standards while ensuring the safe and effective use of medical equipment ― a fundamental component of patient safety.
Healthcare delivery organisations that utilise oneSource alongside RLDatix’s core enterprise safety and risk management solutions will benefit from critical data-driven insights to help prevent safety events from occurring.
“There is an abundance of research showing that medical device-related safety incidents are far more nuanced than a simple failure of equipment,” said Sachin Agrawal, president of data, strategy and corporate development at RLDatix. “The contextual use of a particular device as it relates to staffing, workflow, other devices and policies is critical when determining what truly led to a safety event or near miss. By bringing RLDatix’s core incident reporting, investigation and policy management expertise together with the resources made available by oneSource, we will help our clients connect historically disparate dots and drive efficient system improvement.”
