关于客户
The Zentrum für Psychiatrie Südwürttemberg (ZfP) [Center for Psychiatry Südwürttemberg], located in Südwürttemberg, Germany, offers a differentiated and comprehensive help system for mentally ill patients, focusing on innovative forms of treatment and professional care. The ZfP has a social mandate to advise, treat, and care for people with mental, psychosomatic, and neurological illnesses and impairments. Located between Stuttgart and Lake Constance (in South Germany), the ZfP serves approximately 1.8 million inhabitants in nine administrative districts. ZfP Südwürttemberg is one of the largest service providers in its region. Every year, around 17,000 patients are treated as inpatients and more than 40,000 as outpatients. The non-profit organization operates specialist clinics, outpatient departments, and medical care centers. The ZfP also works with almost 650 home-based locations, more than 200 outpatient assisted living facilities, an outpatient nursing service, and almost 600 sheltered workplaces/workshops for the disabled.
挑战
Zentrum für Psychiatrie Südwürttemberg (ZfP) is a large service provider in its region, operating specialist clinics, outpatient departments, and medical care centers. It also works with almost 650 home-based locations, more than 200 outpatient assisted living facilities, an outpatient nursing service, and almost 600 sheltered workplaces/workshops for the disabled. The center considers a high building standard as enormously important to guarantee the appropriate patient environment for the best possible treatment and care. However, for the group’s 157 buildings, this objective can only be achieved with the most modern and technologically advanced building control technology. The prior building management software solution, with approximately 15,000 data points, as well as 500 overview and plant displays, eventually failed to live up to the expectations of the Administration and its multiple locations. The obsolete system was unable to process the required large amounts of data as desired. Data analysis was often delayed and would not show the current state of the building’s environmental conditions. Updates of the existing software were not possible, and development felt frozen in regard to HTML5 programming. These attributes frequently led to emergency staff meetings.
解决方案
The ZfP chose system integrator/distributor MESALOGIC of Merneberg, Germany to manage the system upgrade. MESALOGIC chose ICONICS software for its new, more modern building control system and in particular selected the following ICONICS platforms: ICONICS GENESIS64™ HMI/SCADA and building automation suite, Hyper Historian™ rapid data historian, and KPIWorX™ self-service dashboard application for real-time and historical data. GENESIS64 is now responsible for visualizing the process data of the whole instrumentation and control engineering system (including heating, ventilation, and air conditioning). Facility management personnel use the system to centrally monitor and coordinate all 157 buildings from ZfP’s administrative headquarters in Bad Schussenried, with the added benefit of being able to access the software from anywhere via web browser or mobile app. Control processes are optimized with the aid of historical process data, and energy flows are recorded for higherlevel energy management. ZfP’s new portal now includes drag and drop functions for the approximately 15,000 data points, as well as extended alarm management. An additional MESALOGIC asset book, created to simplify daily work in facility management, combines user comments from trends and current setpoint changes from plant displays in a SQL Server database, while also providing the ability to manually input repair and maintenance data.

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.
