Intermountain Healthcare and several leading information technology companies have joined forces to bring transformational technologies to the patient bedside quickly and more efficiently.
Founding members Xi3 and Intel, and collaborators Dell, CenturyLink, NetApp, and Sotera Wireless joined together to participate with Intermountain's Healthcare Transformation Lab. The Lab is located at Intermountain Medical Center, in Murray. Intermountain employees and collaborating organizations will jointly research, develop, and measure new ideas to improve patient care. The teams will work together to rapidly design, create and test new health care technologies to be used at Intermountain facilities and ultimately across the nation.
Some lab projects underway include: the Patient Room of the Future with interactive technologies, 3D Printing of Medical Devices, Handwashing Sensor, and Life Detector.
