SafeSide
A mobile app and web platform to reduce surgical error in hospitals.
Modernize Your Preoperative Process.
The current preoperative process is rife with human error. The identity of the patient, the nature of the procedure, and relevant radiological images are often inaccessible, and this forces doctors to rely on their memories. SafeSide changes all of this with a mobile app and web platform that bolster the efficiency and confidence of a surgical team with better information and documentation of the preoperative process.
