Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH) has gone live with the pre-admission testing (PAT) module of its iPro Anaesthesia system, meaning a full perioperative information management system has rolled out at South Australia's largest hospital.

The iPro PAT module allows anaesthetists to undertake a pre-assessment of a patient prior to surgery so that risks are identified and catered for. The module promises to lead to a reduction in case cancellations and delays.
