Balancing safety and efficiency
Intra-hospital transfers are risky and high stress.
They pose risks and challenges, demanding fast, careful handling to keep equipment and life-support systems secure.
An IV transport system is essential for safely and efficiently moving patients along with their attached medical equipment, like IV poles, to different areas within the hospital, including imaging and MRI suites.
What does the current IVT system look like?
There is no clear indicator showing whether the IVT is locked or unlocked.
Nurses may overlook verifying the lock status during urgent situations.
Based on observational studies in a hospital environment, we identified key pain points and mapped out a user journey. The primary users are the nurses responsible for facilitating intra-hospital patient transfers.
