Anesthesia, Premedication, Recovery Room
The anesthesia processes
- in the surgery room,
- in the premedication and
- in recovery room
are fully integrated into the Sandman.MD app.
However, it is also possible to define the functional areas with individual apps/modules.
for more flexibility of the user in the daily routine.
In the following, the functions of the three iPad modules are listed first, supplemented by the functions of the fourth module, the Anesthesia Server SAS.MD.
Subsequently, the possibilities of their incremental implementation are presented.
Anesthesia module Sandman.MD
The Sandman.MD module includes the documentation of the anesthesia process and the logging of the measured values as well as the postoperative transfer to the recovery room.
The functions of Sandman.MD:
- Documentation of activities, measures, observations and measures
- Wireless online transmission of measured values also without existing IT structure
- Manual documentation of all measured values
- Pen input with Apple Pencil
- Free configuration of log workspace structure and layout
- Manual error correction with historization
- Easy integration of photo documentation into the anesthesia protocol
- Post-Operative Documentation
- Integrated drug database
- Integration of the core data set of DGAI/BDA
- Recording of anesthesia progression observations (AVB)
- Free configurable anesthesia protocol as PDF
- Tabular and graphic printout
- Local storage of anesthesia data on the iPad
- Central storage on your own anesthesia server (*)
(*) In combination with SAS.MD
Premedication module Premed.MD
The Premed.MD module supplements the Sandman.MD module with the functionality of mobile premedication. It contains the recording of patient master data, the provision of old cases, the recording of anamnesis, the determination of premedication procedures as well as the documentation of surgery planning.
The functions of Premed.MD:
- Recording patient master data
- manually
- readable via QR/Bar-Code
- Patient label recognition - Recording Patient Master Data from the Hospital Information System (HIS) (*)
- Display old premedication and anesthesia protocols
- Transfer of premedication data of a previous case into current premedication (*)
- Display of completed old patient cases (*)
- Integrated photo documentation
- Free configurable anamnesis log in the desktop
- Prescription of premedication for the ward
- Prospective planning of surgery data
- Prospective planning of personnel
- Historization
- Plausibility check
- Free configurable premedication protocol as PDF
- Direct printable protocol
- Local storage of premedication data on the iPad
- Central storage on your own anesthesia server (*)
(*) In combination with SAS.MD
Recovery room module Recovery.MD
With the Recovery.MD module, documentation and logging of measured values can be continued after relocation to the recovery room. Measured values can be recorded manually or online as well as during anesthesia.
The functions of Recovery.MD:
- Documentation of activities, measures, observations and measures
- Wireless online transmission of measured values even without existing IT structure
- Manual documentation of all measured values
- Pen input with Apple Pencil
- Free configuration of log workspace structure and layout
- Manual error correction with history
- Photo documentation (for mobile use)
- Free configurable anesthesia protocol as PDF
- Tabular and graphic printout
- Local storage of the recovery room data on the iPad
- Central storage on your own anesthesia server (*)
(*) In combination with SAS.MD
Anesthesia Server Module SAS.MD
The data collected on the iPad by all modules can be transferred to a separate central anesthesia server (SAS.MD), stored there and retrieved again. The server offers interfaces to in-house HIS and other IT systems for communication with the anesthesia modules on the iPads.
The functions of SAS.MD:
- Storing all data from premedication, anesthesia and recovery room in an anesthesia case database
- Storage of completed premedication, anesthesia and recovery room protocols in PDF format
- Patient data transfer from HIS systems
- Transfer of data and protocols to HIS systems (depending on HIS installation) via HL7
- Connection of further in-house IT systems (laboratory etc.)
- Central configuration of the technical modules on the iPad
- Central user administration
Implementation of Sandman.MD
StepĀ | Activity |
![]() |
In the first step it is possible to start only with premedication. This can be done locally with separate data storage on the devices used or on an iPad additionally used for data management and the use of the integrated mover functionality. |
![]() |
In the second step, it is possible to add the anesthesia server to the Premed.MD module in order to store all premedication data on a centrally available system. |
![]() |
In the third step, the technical extension can take place through the introduction of the digital anesthesia protocol, also with storage of the data in the server. |
![]() |
In the fourth step, the patient data is directly transferred through the connection of the HIS and completed protocols are written back to the HIS. |
![]() |
In the fifth step, the recovery room protocol will be implemented. |
