Launchpad Company VitVio Launches Digital Platform Powered by Computer Vision and AI to Transform the Efficiency of Operating Rooms

DigitalHealth.London Launchpad company VitVio announce the launch of their digital platform, which uses advanced computer vision and AI technologies to track and analyse surgical procedures and tool usage.

In the fast-paced environment of operating rooms (OR), efficiency is crucial. However, OR staff often grapple with managing multiple surgeries, coordinating teams, and ensuring the availability of essential tools. Delays, miscommunications, and resource mismanagement can drive up costs, extend waiting times, and negatively impact patient outcomes.

At VitVio, we are transforming OR efficiency through the power of computer vision and AI. Our digital platform offers real-time insights and actionable data, seamlessly integrating with existing health information systems in hospitals. When used alongside high-definition cameras in the OR, VitVio allows staff to effectively track and analyse surgical procedures and tool usage.

Designed to enhance patient outcomes and promote more sustainable healthcare practices, VitVio’s user-friendly dashboard also provides real-time data on surgery progress, time estimates and insights related to tool usage.

Key benefits from our platform include:

• Reduced turnover times – real-time updates boost staff efficiency and quicker preparation for the next surgery in the OR
• Improved scheduling accuracy – easily accessible and accurate data help staff reduce cancellations and increase the number of surgeries that can be performed
• Enhanced resource management – insights into tool usage and staff movements allow for better resource allocation

Navigating the complexities of the NHS can be challenging. VitVio’s journey through the DigitalHealth.London Launchpad has been instrumental in helping the team understand and navigate these challenges. Intellectual property is one of the key areas where the programme helps early-stage companies like ours. Understanding the Intellectual Property (IP) landscape and protection options really can make or break a company. Similarly, The Value Proposition workshop showed us how to structure a value proposition for NHS clients, which has been vital in our engagements with NHS trusts. Through the Launchpad, we gained insights and connections that facilitated our interactions with the NHS, allowing us to prepare for deployments more effectively and align with NHS needs.

Our vision is to create a fully autonomous OR environment, where staff no longer have to input data manually and can focus on what’s most important — the patient.
