RLDatix Buys oneSOURCE to Strengthen Enterprise Compliance and Accelerate Applied Safety Intelligence
CIO Applications | Tuesday, September 15, 2020

This acquisition further improves RLDatix's Applied Safety Intelligence framework by assisting healthcare delivery organizations in complying with global accreditation standards while making sure the safe and effective use of medical equipment―a fundamental component of patient safety.
FREMONT, CA: RLDatix, the leading global provider of intelligent patient safety solutions, has declared that it has acquired oneSOURCE, the leading healthcare medical equipment SaaS database that offers online access to continuously-updated instructions for use (IFU) and preventative maintenance documentation. This acquisition further improves RLDatix's Applied Safety Intelligence framework by assisting healthcare delivery organizations in complying with global accreditation standards while making sure the safe and effective use of medical equipment―a fundamental component of patient safety.
As per ECRI Institute, responding to and learning from device problems is one of the top 10 patient safety concerns of 2020, with incidents involving medical devices or equipment being a risk in any care setting where they are found. The same report found out a lack of access to current manufacturer IFUs as a key barrier for sterile processing departments responsible for disinfecting and cleaning instruments as well as equipment. Unsafe sterilization results in an increase in surgical site infections (SSIs), which have, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a 3 percent mortality rate and an associated annual cost of 3.3 billion.
"Proper usage of medical equipment is a critical component of patient safety and compliance," stated Jeff Surges, CEO of RLDatix. "With oneSOURCE, we are further catalyzing Applied Safety Intelligence―the move away from reactive risk management toward proactive prevention―while deepening our enterprise compliance capabilities that help our customers more effectively align with The Joint Commission and other global accreditors. This acquisition represents the latest chapter in our growth and further cements our position as the global leader in patient safety."
