A study at Herlev Gentofte University Hospital in Denmark shows that the Ambient Experience in-bore Connect solution helped them reduce the number of rescans. The Herlev Gentofte University Hospital compared the number of interrupted examinations before and after installation of the Ambient Experience in-bore Connect solution with other scanners in the facility. The data shows their yearly average number of rescans decreased by 70%*. The same study showed that 84% of their patients felt more calm.
Further evidence of the benefits of enhancing the patient experience during imaging procedures was recently published in the Philips 'Patient Experience in Imaging Study' – a survey of 603 patients in the US and Germany about their satisfaction, expectations, preferences and unmet needs with diagnostic imaging procedures over the previous year. While most patients expressed feelings of being well taken care of, respected, and informed about their imaging procedures, many also cited feelings of nervousness, uncertainty and powerlessness during the procedure. In general, patients viewed safety and well-being throughout the imaging process as important, and valued speed and comfort during the procedure itself. Philips is designing its innovations with these patients' needs in mind.
