title: Paddington hospital has 'world first' in AV.
abstract: Colin Dobbyne, director of OR1, describes OR Networks' recent installation of a sophisticated new video communication and patient entertainment system in the intensive care unit at London's St Mary's Hospital, explaining how the "world first" equipment was designed and manufactured to meet the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust's specific requirements. The specialist healthcare communications design consultancy also worked with clean air engineers, Howorth Air Technology, to provide a "package" of integrated equipment for a major theatre refurbishment at the hospital, whose past alumni include runner of the first sub-four-minute-mile, Sir Roger Bannister--later to become a distinguished neurologist.
