Valcare Medical leveraged Rods&Cones to transform engagement in clinical trials, achieving full team participation in procedural processes. This strategic adoption boosted procedural efficiency and team cohesion, setting Valcare on a fast track to enhanced clinical insights and market readiness for their innovative mitral valve treatments.
Challenge
Valcare faced the challenge of engaging their entire team in the intricate procedures involved in their clinical trials. Traditionally, only a small onsite team participated directly, leaving the majority of the team back in Israel without real-time insights or involvement in the critical operational stages.
Solution
Rods&Cones provided Valcare with a modular system that enabled comprehensive live streaming and recording of procedures from multiple camera angles, including fluoroscopy and OR cameras. This system allowed the entire Valcare team, regardless of location, to participate in and learn from each procedure.
Additionally, the technology enabled the creation of high-quality educational content for training and marketing purposes.
Results
Implementing Rods&Cones led to a transformative increase in team engagement. From a baseline where only 10% of the team could witness procedures, Valcare achieved 100% team involvement. This change not only enhanced knowledge sharing and team morale but also significantly reduced the logistical costs and complexity of having multiple team members travel to each case site.
Furthermore, the data and recordings obtained from the clinical cases have been used to edit short video clips that summarize the procedures. These clips are utilized for engaging investors, presenting at conferences, and other educational and marketing purposes, amplifying the impact of Valcare’s innovative approach.
Conclusion
Valcare’s adoption of Rods&Cones’ solutions exemplifies how advanced remote collaboration tools can dramatically enhance team involvement and operational efficiency in clinical settings. As Valcare moves towards commercial approval of their mitral valve treatment platform, the insights gained from widespread team involvement are invaluable. Their ongoing success in clinical trials and eventual market launch continues to demonstrate the pivotal role of innovative remote technologies in modern medical practices.
