[Seminar Overview]

• 1:00 PM – 1:50 PM

Digital Transformation & AI in Surgical Team-Based Care

Surgical operations and related procedures performed in hospitals involve team-based care, requiring effective communication and management of tasks among multiple healthcare professionals.
However, until now, much of this coordination has relied on analog methods such as paper records and verbal communication.

This seminar will introduce unique initiatives that apply digital transformation (DX) and artificial intelligence (AI) to surgical team–related operational data that exists outside electronic medical record systems, with the aim of addressing on-site challenges in clinical practice.

Topics include:

1. Company overview
2. Challenges in surgical team-based care
3. What constitutes surgical medical data
4. Initiatives related to community-based healthcare

Speaker: Junichi Ohya, President & CEO, Quotomy Inc.

Dr. Otani graduated from the Medical School, Nagoya City University in 2006. He subsequently joined the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Spine Surgery at the Faculty of Medicine, the University of Tokyo, where he gained clinical experience at affiliated hospitals.

In 2015, while studying in the United States as a visiting researcher at the University of California San Francisco, he was deeply impressed by how products can enrich people’s lives.

After returning to Japan, he was inspired to contribute to healthcare by developing products for medical professionals and founded Quotomy Inc. in 2017. After launching and pivoting multiple products, the company arrived at its current service offering.

As of March 2023, he stepped away from clinical practice to fully commit to business development.
