关于客户
Ethicon是一家世界级的医疗器械公司。通过与 Ansys 合作，它致力于将其材料信息集中化和数字化。使用 Ansys Granta MI™ 作为其材料信息系统的主干，该团队创建了一个可搜索的数据库，可用于快速评估在全球市场情景中合规或在全球供应链危机期间转向的众多制造材料。结果：有助于改善患者护理的物质智能。
挑战
快速选择符合全球市场要求的制造材料对于确保患者、从业者和采购组织的医疗器械生物相容性至关重要。
确保供应链的连续性和最大限度地减少因监管变化而导致医疗设备过时的风险对于实现 Ethicon 对维持患者护理的持续承诺也至关重要。其工程师正在开发下一代医疗设备，需要能够访问历史材料数据以加速新产品开发
解决方案
Ansys Granta MI Enterprise 用于将所有材料数据（包括标准数据和定制数据）数字化并迁移到中央数据库。这提供了对材料信息的快速访问，包括设备级材料内容，以及有关材料在整个公司中的使用位置的信息。受限物质功能使物料清单 (BoM) 分析与全球法规 (EU MDR) 能够评估当前和未来医疗设备的风险。
然后使用该软件的材料网关和企业连接解决方案，使这些材料数据可以直接从 Ethicon 的工程工具（如生物相容性数据库）中访问，并生产生命周期管理 (PLM) 系统，以使其全球工程团队受益。
为材料审批和审查开发了标准化的 Granta MI 工作流程。这推动了 Ethicon 的主题专家 (SME) 的效率提高，以便能够验证供应商名称对材料的更改。

Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
