“I think using the Isiris α system on a day-to-day basis has had several positive impacts: • Wait times have definitely improved • Flexibility of appointments has improved • Flexibility of use where it can be done has improved • I think it also frees time for other team members to be doing other work as well. Since using the Isiris α system, wait times have improved significantly. We have removed just under 400 stents to date and we have looked and it is showing that pre-Isiris α use there was a 30% rate of stents being removed on time, which has now increased to 73% now that we are using the Isiris α system.” Clare Whittaker, Clinical Nurse Specialist
