      At a glance

      In modern operating rooms, surgical teams are constantly multitasking under time pressure. A good workflow is half the job, since interruptions can negatively impact both patient safety and OR efficiency1. And other, invisible disruptions are on the rise: cyber attackers are taking advantage of security gaps to access patient data and compromise vulnerable healthcare systems.²

      Designed for more ease in the OR

      Designed for more ease in the OR

      In rapid OR routines, a mobile C-arm can be challenging to operate. Technicians need years of experience, and surgeons must communicate very clearly. Cios Flow offers intuitive use, low weight, and easy maneuverability, helping to optimize system operation independent of staff expertise.
