American Hospital Dubai has entered a long-term Value Partnership Agreement with Siemens Healthineers, a global leader in medical technology. This partnership aims to boost patient care outcomes through improved operational efficiencies and the introduction of advanced medical imaging technology. The agreement spans ten years and emphasizes a four-point plan to enhance workflow efficiency and patient care quality.

The four key areas of focus include in-field assessments to optimize resources and reduce time and costs, extending clinical pathways to support the continuum of care from early diagnosis to long-term monitoring, cross-departmental training programs for staff, and a technology roadmap aimed at sustainable, state-of-the-art solutions that align with the hospital’s strategic goals. This comprehensive approach is designed to enhance the overall experience for both patients and medical staff.

A significant highlight of this partnership is the introduction of the Nexaris Angio-CT, which is the region’s first hybrid imaging system. This innovative technology combines Computed Tomography (CT) and Angiography imaging, allowing physicians to perform complex procedures with greater safety, speed, and precision. The seamless integration of CT and Angio images while the patient is on the angiography table represents a major advancement in interventional imaging capabilities.

Sherif Beshara, the group CEO of American Hospital Dubai, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating that both organizations share a commitment to healthcare excellence and innovation. He emphasized that the hospital will continue to leverage technology to create more efficient systems and deliver transformative healthcare outcomes.

Vivek Kanade, managing director of Siemens Healthineers for the Middle East and Africa, highlighted the successful collaboration between the two entities. He noted that both organizations are dedicated to making a lasting impact on patients and the healthcare system, with a shared vision that prioritizes patient-centered care.
