Our role in the SEISMIC project

Rotterdam School of Management (RSM) and the Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management (ESHPM) at Erasmus University Rotterdam are leading one of the work packages within the project, focusing on requirements, benchmarking, and health technology assessment. Their research will:
• Design a structured framework for systematic collection of data from other parts of the consortium
• Define performance benchmarks for neurovascular and neuro-oncological operation rooms
• Assess how clinical interventions in other parts of the project influence the efficiency and overall performance of operation rooms
• Evaluate the cost effectiveness of clinical interventions in other parts of the project and conduct a health technology assessment (HTA)
• Identify key factors for the successful implementation and scalable adoption of the innovative interventions.
