Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol. 2020 Nov 04;:110486

Authors: Ngombu S, Payne LM, Cecil JM, Grischkan JM

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To develop a more efficient endoscopy tower and evaluate its capability to improve retrieval and storage of videos across 6 clinical sites.
METHODS: Descriptive study that took place at tertiary care Pediatric Otolaryngology Department over a 2 year period. In collaboration with our Information Services Department and Otolaryngology endoscopy vendors, we assembled our "Frankentower" endoscopy cart using components from 3 medical device manufacturers.
RESULTS: It is feasible to create a functional composite endoscopic tower. Implementation of "Frankentower" improved overall management and retrieval of endoscopy video and images in our department which lead to better patient care and facilitated education for medical students, residents and faculty.
CONCLUSIONS: The "Frankentower" is a feasible, cost-effective solution to streamline the capture, access and storage of patient endoscopy exams across our operating rooms, inpatient consult service, Emergency Department and outpatient clinics.
