The challenge

CUF’s main challenge was to implement a fully customised traceability solution capable of adapting to the complexity of its operational flows and integrating with the information systems already in use.

The main objectives were:

  • Ensure complete traceability of surgical instruments, from sterilisation to use in the operating theatre.
  • Digitise manual processes to reduce errors and improve staff efficiency.
  • Ensure regulatory compliance and data quality at every stage of the operational cycle.
  • Customise the platform to meet the specific needs of different CUF facilities.
  • Enable mobile management of operations with intuitive tools that are easy for operators to use.

Proposed solution

Promedital has developed and implemented a customised traceability solution for CUF based on SIXSTER and its mobile app, adapting the platform to the group’s specific operational requirements.

The solution allows you to:

  • Digitally track every surgical instrument throughout its entire life cycle.
  • Record washing, sterilisation, preparation and use operations in real time.
  • Manage alerts and automatic deadlines to ensure safety and operational continuity.
  • Access data anywhere via the mobile app, with a user-friendly interface and simplified procedures.
  • Integrate information with existing CUF information systems, ensuring interoperability and data consistency.
