How Your LDS Platform Uniquely Uses Surgical Scenarios

Your brand goes beyond a simple scenario:

You use it as a patient-centric navigation and collaboration tool:

• Empower patients to understand their surgery

• Let surgeons “modify” or “build” the procedure

• Showcase manufacturers influencing equipment choices

• Link surrounding providers regionally

• Turn a scenario into an actionable referral pathway

Which means:

Your Surgical Scenario is not just educational — it’s operational and connective.

Why Surgical Scenarios Matter

1. Education & Skill Development

• Train residents, students, nurses, assistants

• Teach decision-making, not just technique

2. Standardization & Safety

• Identify “failure points”

• Support pathways like Critical View of Safety

3. Simulation & Rehearsal

• Prepare for complex or rare cases before performing them

• Dry-run using different approaches or product configs

4. Patient Communication

• Helps explain what will happen in their surgery

• Sets expectations for risks, recovery, and outcomes

5. Business & Integration

(Perfect for your LDS Platform)

• Connect surgeons, hospitals, pharma, and device manufacturers around case-driven care delivery
