Pyxis® Perioperative Solutions

From supply chain performance to regulatory compliance, Pyxis® Perioperative Solutions help your healthcare facility take a comprehensive approach to managing the OR.

And not just any OR — your OR. Based on a deep understanding of the perioperative environment, our Pyxis Perioperative Solutions offer a broad and flexible platform of technologies and services that are tailored to your needs, starting with an analysis of your current clinical, operational and financial situation. The end result is a series of measurable improvements that help improve clinician satisfaction, reduce costs, save time and improve regulatory compliance.

For instance, Pyxis® technologies with OR information system (ORIS) integration help clinicians chart, charge and reorder with the touch of a button—automatically charting supply usage information directly into the patient record. Moreover, our analytics tools turn data into actionable information—helping you to monitor key performance indicators and pinpoint ways to further reduce costs and streamline workflow.

Optimize OR performance by: 

  • Integrating supply management with your ORIS to improve workflow and revenue cycle management
  • Managing and standardizing pick list, preference items and trunk stock
  • Improving charge capture and case costing
  • Simplifying compliance for managing medications, tissues and implants
  • Gaining insight using our analytics tools and service offerings
