Summary
Children's Nebraska is at the forefront of integrating consumer technology into pediatric care, responding to a significant shortfall in venture capital investment for children's healthcare. With only 2% of funding directed towards this demographic, the organization adapts existing technologies and collaborates with sectors like gaming to innovate solutions. A notable achievement is their partnership with Insight Surgery to develop 3D personalized surgical planning tools that enhance precision and efficiency in complex procedures. This initiative not only positions Children's Nebraska as a leader in pediatric surgical technology but also underscores the critical need for tailored healthcare innovations in children's hospitals.
