Innovation Lab

Prototype the next clinical workflow before the purchase order exists.

Medtronic Innovation Lab gives hospital teams a structured place to test connected monitoring, sterile supply traceability, diagnostic data exchange, and cybersecurity documentation with realistic operating constraints.

Lab modules

Innovation work is packaged into modules that produce committee-ready artifacts.

FHIR simulation bench

Map observation payloads, exception handling, and audit logs against EMR integration assumptions before clinical teams depend on the feed.

UDI traceability sprint

Stress-test sterile kits, lot records, recall lookup, and replenishment rules using simulated product conversion scenarios.

Cybersecurity document room

Review SBOM, MDS2, vulnerability triage, endpoint hardening, and patch responsibilities with biomedical engineering and IT security.

Clinical workflow theatre

Run monitored simulations for ICU, remote care, laboratory routing, or procedure supply handoffs without creating patient-care risk.

Four-week pilot design rhythm

  1. Constraints

    Define care setting, products, systems, evidence needs, and stakeholder review sequence.

  2. Simulation

    Run workflow tests using representative interfaces, supply records, and service assumptions.

  3. Evidence

    Package IFU references, cybersecurity summaries, training notes, and operational risks.

  4. Decision

    Deliver a launch recommendation with unresolved gaps, owners, and next evaluation milestones.

Bring your hardest integration question to the lab.

The best pilot request includes one clinical workflow, one product family, one system constraint, and one committee deadline.
