What's happening

Tideway began on Mr Rob MacAdam’s own Upper GI lists, where completed cases per session rose and less theatre time went unused. On the strength of those results, the Trust has backed a demonstrator in urology, as the first step towards using Tideway across the Trust.

The demonstrator runs from November to February. It tests one question: when different consultants, clerks and theatre teams use Tideway in a different department, do they see the same kind of result?
