(Waukesha, WI)—January 5, 2021 – Surfacide®, the leader in hospital-grade, triple-emitter UV-C robot technology, is excited to announce they’ve moved to a larger facility in Waukesha, WI to accommodate rapid business growth at more than 500% in the past year. As we move into our new normal, germ-fighting, COVID-19 killing “robots” is being deployed everywhere from hospitals, nursing homes, restaurants, hotels, gyms to commercial office spaces, tourist attractions, and professional sports stadiums. Surfacide has been a trusted leader in UV decontamination for over ten years due to its world’s only patented Helios® Triple-Emitter System of three virus-zapping robots.

Surfacide is actively being used throughout the world in over 500 leading healthcare facilities, children’s hospitals, nursing homes, correctional facilities, dental offices, hotels, restaurants, commercial businesses and more around the world. Such facilities include the Seattle Space Needle, Beachbody Studios, Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles and locally at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, Froedtert Medical College—Milwaukee and Aspirus Wausau Hospital. The company’s UV-C technology is scientifically validated to inactivate coronavirus–the family of virus that make up SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.

Surfacide’s new location is at N918 Northmound Dr., STE. 300 Waukesha, WI 53186 and the company’s new facility is more than 75,000 sq-ft, three times the size of their previous location. The company was started in a one-room office in 2010 and has experienced incredible and consistent growth every year since its inception. The expansive new building space will offer much needed space for Surfacide’s expanding team and to meet the huge increase in demand for their UV system since the pandemic hit. The facility will continue to house the company’s manufacturing and distribution arm, as well as a global training center, a state-of-the-art UV robot simulation room, conference rooms and offices.

Gunner Lyslo, Founder & CEO of Surfacide shares his excitement for the new space: “During the pandemic, we are fortunate to have grown our team and provide a proven UV-C technology that has tremendously impacted healthcare facilities, nursing homes, dental offices, and more in fighting the COVID-19 virus,” says Lyslo. “This year the importance of infection prevention has been paramount, and we expect to see that course continue in years to come. For as long as our communities need safety and protection, Surfacide will continue to evolve and be there to assist those who need it most.”

Seeking medical evaluation immediately after a vehicle crash, regardless of how you feel, is essential because adrenaline can mask serious injuries for hours or days. A same-day medical visit creates a documented paper trail tied to the accident date, which protects against insurance companies disputing injury claims and denial of compensation.

  • 01Feeling fine immediately after a vehicle crash may not accurately reflect one's health condition.
  • 02The body's response to stress can delay the onset of injury symptoms.
  • 03Seek medical evaluation after a crash, even if injuries aren't immediately apparent.

Who's Really Running Healthcare? (When Physicians No Longer Have a Voice) - Dr. Krishna Vedala

Who's Really Running Healthcare? (When Physicians No Longer Have a Voice) - Dr. Krishna Vedala

Physician burnout stems not just from workload but from loss of meaningful voice in healthcare organizations. Dr. Krishna Vedala discusses how primary care is mismanaged as a procedural business, how AI should free physicians from administrative work rather than replace them, and why physicians may need collective representation to restore trust between clinicians and administrators.

  • 01Physicians increasingly lack meaningful participation in organizational decisions, despite being closest to patients and responsible for care delivery.
  • 02Primary care requires complex, nuanced decision-making but is often managed with productivity expectations designed for procedural specialties, pushing work home and some physicians toward breaking point.
  • 03AI's highest value is reducing administrative burden and documentation so physicians have more time with patients, not replacing clinical judgment or human relationships.

MRI segmentation models can now label 80 structures, but deployment is the hard part

MRI segmentation models can now label 80 structures. TotalSegmentator MRI is an nnU-Net model that provides rapid segmentation of all major organs across all MRI sequences, according to Radiology Business. For health systems, deployment is the hard part.

  • 01The spread between 0.97 Dice on lungs and 0.54 on portal and splenic veins in MRSegmentator is the real operational story: enterprises need confidence flags and escalation paths, not a single headline score.
  • 02Hospitals planning radiation oncology and neuro volumetry programs can treat segmentation speedups as capacity gains only if downstream steps, contour review, dose planning inputs, and reporting templates, are standardized.
