Hologic Adopts Inovus Medical's HystAR Hysteroscopy Simulator for high fidelity device training across ANZ

Sydney, Australia; St Helens, UK – Hologic, a leading provider of women’s health solutions, has announced a major adoption of the HystAR hysteroscopy simulator from Inovus Medical. The HystAR simulator is a state-of-the-art augmented reality training tool designed to enhance the skills of medical professionals in hysteroscopy procedures.

What sets the HystAR simulator apart from other training tools is its ability to provide a fully immersive experience with real surgical devices and natural haptic feedback. The simulator uses a combination of advanced software and hardware technologies to create a realistic environment for medical professionals to train and develop their hysteroscopy skills.

In addition to providing an immersive experience, the HystAR simulator collects data on the user’s performance and displays this data in an online dashboard, powered by the company’s digital surgery platform, Totum. This data includes metrics such as time taken to complete a procedure and accuracy of movements as well as procedural video data, providing users with valuable feedback on their performance and helping them identify areas for improvement.

“Hysteroscopy is a delicate and challenging procedure that requires a high level of skill and precision,” said Dr Elliot Street, CEO at Inovus Medical. “The HystAR simulator allows our medical device customers such as Hologic, to deliver hands on training with their portfolio of devices while capturing insights on the impact of their professional education activities. We have a strong history of working with Hologic and I am proud to see this partnership extend to the ANZ region as Inovus continues to expand its global reach.”

The adoption of the HystAR simulator by Hologic Australia reflects the company’s commitment to providing the highest quality of care to their patients, by ensuring their clinical end users are trained in the latest technologies and techniques using gold standard simulation technology. Inovus Medical’s HystAR simulator is already being used in leading hospitals and residency programs around the world, and Hologic Australia’s adoption of the technology further cements its position as a leader in women’s health solutions.

“Hologic ANZ are excited to partner with Inovus in adopting their Hysteroscopic Training System.  This will allow us to extend the breadth and depth of the training we provide our customers for all products across the Hologic Surgical portfolio.  By providing the innovative Totum platform it establishes an online environment for Gynecologists to continually develop and hone their operative hysteroscopic skills and share best practice with peers and mentors. Hologic provides one of the best in class products and by partnering with Inovus we now provide the gold standard in surgical training hardware, software and digital learning platform.”  – James Ramshaw, Business Unit Director- ANZ, Gynaecological Surgical Solutions
