Update: 2025-04-22
Description
Listen to the podcast by Tracee Pratt, Executive Director, Women's Health Programs at Lois Hole Hospital and Sturgeon Community Hospital in Alberta and the Women's Health Lead for the Edmonton Zone speak about the evolution and success of the robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) program in the OR, and the downstream benefits. Tracee will share insights into how they operationalized the RAS program to successfully achieve a zero-wait time for targeted gynecologic-oncology procedures.
This session is moderated by Tara Klassen, PhD, the Provincial Program Lead – Surgical Innovation and Scientist for the Evidence Decision Support Program. Tara is engaging key stakeholders in the long-term planning for RAS, while considering the evidence, health economics, and organizational impact to make evidence-informed decisions about the equitable access and expanded use of RAS in the province. This novel approach to adoption of innovation will transform the delivery of surgical care with the objective of providing timely access to high-quality surgical care, regardless of where patients reside in the province.
