Harmonization, Inventory Management and Optimization of Operating Platforms: The advantages of a common language.

For the sterilization and management of reusable medical devices , one of the main challenges to overcome is the lack of a single repository to identify and manage the medical devices concerned.

It is with this in mind that InWay has developed the Atlas common language , an innovative language enabling the genericization of devices for standardized and optimized management.

Let’s discover how this innovation transforms three key aspects of surgical instrument management:

🔹 1. A harmonization of references for a universal language

One of the major problems in healthcare institutions is the multiplicity of nomenclatures used by manufacturers and hospitals. Each institution may have its own way of naming the same instrument, making exchanges complex and prone to errors.

Thanks to the common Atlas language, all instruments are referenced in a unique and standardized way .

This allows:

✅ To view and identify all instruments easily,

✅ To avoid duplicates and identification errors,

✅ To facilitate communication between services,

✅ To streamline orders and relationships with suppliers.

📦 2. Optimized inventory management

The storage of surgical instruments represents a major financial and organizational challenge. Poor inventory monitoring can lead to critical shortages or, conversely, excessive accumulation of rarely used instruments.

The Atlas common language enables efficient management in:

✔ Grouping references of the same type under the same generic,

✔ Precisely identifying real needs based on needs,

✔ Real-time monitoring of stock status and usage cycles,

✔ Reducing costs associated with unnecessary purchases.

🏥 3. Optimization of operating platforms

The composition of operating trays is often a source of waste and complexity. Too many unnecessary instruments are integrated into some compositions, while other essential ones may be missing, causing time losses in the operating room.

Atlas InWay solves this problem with:

🔹 Simplified visualization of references thanks to their harmonization,

🔹 A rationalization of the compositions to keep only the essentials,

🔹 Standardization facilitating management between sterilization services and operating theaters,

🔹 Better traceability of instruments to avoid losses.
