Apple Vision Pro at the center of Sharp HealthCare’s initiative to enhance patient care through spatial computing.
Sharp is launching this endeavor founded on collaboration with Epic (Sharp’s EHR vendor) and Elsevier, among others. Jointly, they will investigate how spatial computing will enhance effectiveness, productivity, collaboration, education and treatments across a wide range of specialties and clinical roles, from the doctor’s office and operating room to bedside care and caregiver education.
“Using Apple Vision Pro, you can immediately imagine the amazing and far-reaching implications of this technology for the practice and delivery of medicine,” said Chris Howard, president and chief executive of Sharp HealthCare, one of California’s largest integrated health systems. “Sharp has long been committed to transforming the health care experience, and Vision Pro is indeed a game changer, so much so that we created a center of excellence dedicated to this effort.”
The most significant initiative to date to come from the Sharp Prebys Innovation and Education Center, which opened its doors last year, the Spatial Computing Center of Excellence brings together a multidisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, informaticists, analysts, software developers, digital experience product managers and end-user device architects who will work with external partners to develop, test and deploy innovative solutions at Sharp and across the health care industry.
“Apple Vision Pro represents a paradigm shift and a quantum leap forward for technology to empower clinicians and other health care professionals,” said Michael Reagin, Sharp’s senior vice president and chief information and innovation officer. “I am excited to see how the Spatial Computing Center of Excellence will bring this to benefit our mission: to be the best place to work, the best place to practice medicine and the best place to receive care.”
“Spatial computing will fundamentally change how doctors practice medicine,” said Tommy Korn, MD, a board-certified ophthalmologist with Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group. “As we continue to explore the opportunities for applications on Apple Vision Pro, it will enable surgeons like me to transcend the limitations of traditional care, enhancing the safety and precision for our patients like never before. This marks the dawn of an era where health care finally leads the way in digital transformation. The future is here.”
