From wherever
you are.
A shared, organized view of the details a team needs before a procedure—with the convenience of a phone.
Planned capabilities. Clinical changes remain subject to the appropriate clinician’s review and facility processes.
Build procedure & preference cards
Bring the approach, positioning, prepping, draping, instruments, equipment, supplies, implants, and clinician-defined medication requirements into one organized plan.
Adapt the plan for the case
Create case-specific variations while preserving the master preference card. Make preparation responsive to the clinician’s requests and the needs of the case.
Keep the team informed
Make requested changes visible, with a record of updates and approvals, so team members can understand what has changed before preparing the room.
See the setup
Use room layouts, positioning illustrations, back-table arrangements, and equipment placement to make preparation easier to visualize.
Help new and traveling staff prepare
Provide a clearer introduction to the facility’s workflow, the procedure, and the surgeon’s preferences.
Understand more.
Ask with confidence.
Approachable education to help people take part in conversations about their care, with room for the questions that matter to them.
General education supports conversations with your care team. Individual medical advice and preparation instructions come from your clinicians.
Make terminology understandable
Explore plain-language explanations of procedures, anatomy, equipment, and common medical terms.
Follow the care journey
Learn about assessment, treatment discussions, preparing for care, the operation, and recovery through focused educational resources.
Learn through stories and visuals
The vision brings Clinical Scenarios in Surgery™ into the experience through illustrated cases, videos, and narrated explanations.
Bring better questions to the conversation
Organize questions about options, risks, recovery, and personal concerns before speaking with the care team.
Include the people who support you
Give family members and caregivers approachable resources to help them understand the discussions and support needs ahead.
Useful information.
Closer to the work.
Connect practical preparation with clearly sourced product information and the people who understand how it is used.
Organize around your workflow.
Help teams prepare around the products, practices, and resources their facility uses.
- Facility-specific procedure libraries
- Standardized preparation templates
- Orientation and onboarding resources
- Future inventory connections
Make product details easier to find.
Bring relevant manufacturer information into the preparation process.
- Product specifications and catalog numbers
- Manufacturer instructions for use
- Training and educational resources
- Manufacturer contact information
Support informed preparation.
Make clearly sourced medication information accessible to appropriate professional audiences.
- Manufacturer labeling and packaging
- Storage and handling information
- Professional educational resources
- Links to authoritative product information
These capabilities are planned. Inventory, scanning, expiration, and recall features depend on reliable data sources and integrations. Medication decisions and product substitutions require appropriate clinical and facility review. Sponsored material would be clearly identified.
Better preparation starts with understanding the work.
Procedure Builder grew from a practical question: how can the details a surgical team needs become easier to organize, understand, and communicate?
The vision brings professional preparation and patient education into a connected experience, with content appropriate to each audience.

A Procedure Builder is a structured platform that creates a complete, standardized representation of a medical procedure by organizing all of the information, people, technologies, and workflows involved in performing it.
A Procedure Builder is a structured platform that creates a complete, standardized representation of a medical procedure by organizing all of the information, people, technologies, and workflows involved in performing it.
For a platform like Let's Do Surgery (LDS), the Procedure Builder would be the engine that assembles every component of a procedure into one interactive experience tailored to the user.

Why It Matters
A Procedure Builder transforms complex surgical information into a consistent, reusable, and interactive resource. Instead of relying on disconnected documents, videos, and reference materials, it creates a single source of truth that supports education, planning, communication, and decision-making throughout the patient's surgical journey.
For Let's Do Surgery, the Procedure Builder could serve as the core content engine behind every procedure module. A user selects a procedure—such as a cholecystectomy, total knee replacement, or CABG—and the Builder automatically generates a complete, audience-specific experience using the platform's Intelligence, Direction, and Connection framework.
