The Growing Adoption of Eye Protection from Radiation

Medical professionals wear heavy, leaded aprons to protect their bodies from radiation from imaging machines, but there's a vital organ that could use more protection. Your eyes. That's because the lens of the eye is one of the most radiosensitive tissues humans have. Medical safety equipment manufacturer AliMed wants to bring more awareness to protective eyewear against radiation.

Dispelling the Myths of What Makes a Quality Shoe Insert with Michelle Rocha

The latest AliTalks podcast discussion examined the important factors that go into a quality shoe insert. Host https://marketscale.com/industries/contributors/daniel-litwin/ was joined by Michelle Rocha, national retail marketing manager and product specialist at https://www.bauerfeind.com/b2c/. Rocha talked about the importance of the right insert to provide foot relief and alleviate knee and back pain. Rocha then took Litwin through a deep dive of Bauerfiend’s Visco Line and ViscoSpot; their main features, how they are made, and the benefits of these inserts over many competitors. “Obviously, comfortability is the goal here. If it is not comfortable, the consumers are not going to want to wear it," Rocha said. She proceeded to share some results of a study analoging the pain scale taken before and after treatment, showing significantly more patients improved with their heel pain through wearing the Visco heel. 95% percent of patients found relief after 14 days. The conversation wrapped up with Rocha sharing a success story from the owner of a running store in Southern California who reduced their plantar fasciitis pain with the help of Visco products. And lastly, Rocha shared her thoughts on wear the future of inserts may be headed.

Nurses Shouldn't Have to DIY Patient Positioners with Steve Dunn & Mary Grace

When patients are undergoing surgery, nurses work to ensure their patients are in the safest, proper position whether they’re lying on their back supine, face down prone, or even inverted in Trendelenburg position. To do this, healthcare providers use foam, gel, or bean bag positioners to properly support their patients, but some hospitals are using makeshift positioners that not only don’t work as well, but can even further injure the patient. On this episode of AliTalks by https://www.alimed.com/blog-articles/, host Daniel Litwin broke down the issue of proper positioners with https://marketscale.com/industries/contributors/mary-grace-hensell/, former director at https://www.ahn.org/locations/allegheny-general-hospital, an educator and medical legal consultant, and Steve Dunn, product manager for https://www.alimed.com/ “Nurses are ingenious in a lot of ways to get a position situated for surgery. About 30 years ago, it was acceptable to position patients with pillows and foam,” Hensell said. “But as we’ve moved forward, we’ve found there are a lot more positioning agents out there to keep our patients safe. We really don’t need to make our own devices as nurses anymore.” AliMed develops and delivers positioning solutions that improve patient outcomes, offering unique and innovative gel and foam products engineered to redistribute pressure, maximize stability, reduce shear, and improve imaging visualization. AliMed’s positioners range from adult and bariatric to pediatric and neonatal to support all range of patients. "It’s about the safety of the patient overall,” Dunn said. In this episode, Hensell and Dunn also discussed the legal liability that comes with DIY positioners and how they’re helping raise awareness and education of proper positioners for healthcare facilities worldwide.

episode Operating Room Turnover Kits are Saving Time, Money, and Preventing Infections with Adrienne Hamilton of AliMed artwork
Operating Room Turnover Kits are Saving Time, Money, and Preventing Infections with Adrienne Hamilton of AliMed

p style="text-align: left;">It seems healthcare professionals at care facilities are trying to do more with less time and resources: more patients, fewer nurses, less reimbursement from Medicare, and rising demands from health insurance companies. But at a time when some patients — an estimated 650,000 annually — are coming out of hospitals sicker than they were before due to hospital-acquired infections, it's clear that solutions are needed. To discuss this on today's episode of the Healthcare Podcast, host Shelby Skrhak sat down with Adrienne Hamilton, Director of Marketing and Sales Operations for AliMed. The Massachusetts-based company manufactures and sells healthcare products used in patient rooms, operating rooms, long-term health care facilities, and doctors' offices. More than simply selling medical supplies, AliMed is partnering its company mission with the healthcare industry to save time, reduce costs, and substantially reduce the risk of infection for its patients. "As a nation, we're under a lot of pressure to reduce costs and certainly improve patient outcomes by reducing infection control," Hamilton said. "Part of reducing costs is becoming more efficient." Hamilton shared how operating room turnover kits, a prepackaged bundle of disposable table sheets, pillowcases, arm board covers, hamper liners, and straps, are emerging as a trend in medical supplies and how she discovered the eminent need for them in one hospital setting, where nurses were asked to assemble similar kits for overtime.
