In this episode, MassDevice Editor Chris Newmarker interviews Shan Jegatheeswaran, Global President, Polyphonic, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, about what’s to come after the transformation brought to the operating room by digital surgery and robotics.

Jegatheeswaran reports that a new wave of surgical intelligence could take that transformation much further by connecting devices, data, AI and clinicians across the entire perioperative pathway. Jegatheeswaran explains why the biggest challenges may no longer be technological. Interoperability, economic incentives, governance, change management and trust all have to evolve alongside AI and connected medical devices.

We’ll open the episode with this week’s Newmarker’s Newsmakers – Petal Surgical, Boston Scientific, Medtronic, Zimmer Biomet and Abbott.
