Streamlining preoperative assessment for local anaesthetic procedures
The MyPreOp® LA system provides a cloud-hosted patient questionnaire and clinical portal. Enhancements over existing pre-procedure processes are achieved by:
providing a procedure-specific LA questionnaire with the ability to be tailored to specialties e.g. ophthalmology
pulling in patient demographics automatically from PAS and configuring workflows by hospital or specialty service
sending secure invitations via SMS/email for patients to complete their assessment
organising clinician workflow using folders such as ‘Needs attention’, ‘Not started’, ‘In progress’, ‘Complete’, and ‘Archived’
providing branching questionnaires that trigger tasks (e.g., tests, referrals) and automatically generate a clinical summary for export to EPR
The platform supports GIRFT (Getting It Right First Time) recommendations by standardising local anaesthetic preoperative pathways as a separate pathway to GAs. This results in the MyPreOp LA assessment being completed before hospital attendance, minimising on-the-day delays or cancellations.
Additional Features:
Secure cloud-hosting with integration into Trust PAS and electronic document systems
Compliance with DTAC, NHS DSP Toolkit, DCB0129, ISO27001, Cyber Essentials +, and registered as a Medical Device (MHRA ref. 6625)
Accessible design (WCAG 2.1 AA) and embedded patient information links
Direct patient messaging via SMS/email using templates
Clinical summary reports, custom business intelligence dashboards, and full integration with EPR
Comprehensive support, training, and onboarding for patients and clinicians
MyPreOp® LA is a sibling programme to MyPreOp®, MyEndo®, MyIR®, MyMRI®, and MyCardio™, already adopted by numerous NHS Trusts.
Other key benefits include:
improved patient experience and communication
better clinical decision-making ahead of procedure day
reduced Did Not Attend (DNA) rates via automated reminders
optimised theatre utilisation and faster throughput
The questionnaire and many features of the clinical portal can be customised for your hospital or Trust.
