For over 180 years, B. Braun has worked in the healthcare industry, supplying medical facilities and providers with the equipment they need for pharmaceuticals, surgery, and outpatient care. Their equipment ranges from pharmaceutical formulation solutions to minimally invasive surgical tools to skin and dialysis equipment. Since 2020, B. Braun has customized Pulsar to streamline patient management.
Executive Summary
B. Braun employees manage patients in a variety of settings, which are often offline. Healthcare providers needed a solution to manage patient care, from intake to discharge. Pulsar allows providers to manage the patient’s chart, and document the medications, procedures, and therapies used during appointments. The customized user interface makes this process easy and efficient. Validation processes running in Pulsar while offline ensure providers have and transmit the correct and most up-to-date data for patients.
