USF Health in Tampa, Fla adds vascular reporting to their Digisonics cardiovascular information system, streamlining their workflow with automated patient biometry transmission from doppler ultrasound machines and improved interoperability with Epic EMR.
The Digisonics vascular reporting module, which is compliant with IAC standards and guidelines, will enable the Vascular Surgery Department to quickly document velocities, flow, pressures, clinical indications, findings and general conclusions. Seamless integration with the facility’s doppler ultrasound systems will automate transmission of patient information and measurement data directly into the report, translating to improved turnaround times and accuracy by eliminating redundant data entry workflows.
User-friendly drawing tools allow clinicians to quickly modify built-in vascular diagrams which can be included on the report, depicting a comprehensive view of the patient’s anatomy and disease. Vascular images can be quickly viewed at the workstation via a slideshow mode as well as embedded directly in the report with annotation capabilities.
The Digisonics solution will be fully integrated with the facility’s Epic EMR for improved interoperability and ease of use. Clinicians will have the convenience of immediate access to the finalized formatted report (with embedded images and diagrams) and study images directly from a link in the Epic patient record, connected to WebView, Digisonics’ universal viewer application.
As a result of expanding Digisonics for vascular, USF Health has standardized its reporting across departments for the best quality of patient care.
