Echo, vascular, and nuclear
Echo, vascular, and nuclear laboratories must stay ahead to compete. As practices and hospitals expand the range of in-house services provided and reimbursements decrease, modality-specific laboratories must be more efficient and expert to compete and deliver better patient care at a fraction of the cost.
How can we tap the expertise of best-in-class institutions? Best-in-class institutions invest millions to improve efficiency and patient care. Yet, institutional approaches described in papers are often too difficult and costly to map to everyday practice.
Cardiology doesn’t happen in one place. Cardiovascular specialists today are spread thin serving patients through hospitals, clinics, distributed offices, imaging centers, and mobile services. When the day is over, many go home to finish there. And the challenge is getting worse as the US population ages.
Introducing Kardia Echo, Vascular, and Nuclear
Kardia’s modality-specific expert solutions for Echocardiography, Vascular echocardiography, and Nuclear cardiography derive from systems used by best-in-class institutions but are sized for everyday use by specialty laboratories. Benefits include:
- Accreditation support – Kardia’s expert solutions provide the tools needed to win ICAEL and ICAVL accreditation including ICAEL and ICAVL –ready structured reports, data reporting, and quality assurance methods.
- Highly efficient workflows – Kardia optimizes the workflow in the expert solutions for the specific modality to maximize the efficiency of a department or laboratory while ensuring a comprehensive diagnosis.
- Suggested impressions and advice – Kardia Echo includes built-in intelligent prompts based upon Mayo Clinic’s cardiovascular disease knowledgebase and management of patient throughput in a high volume patient setting. This functionality assists in preliminary report generation by offering suggested procedure components, staff assignments, measurements templates and automated suggested impressions based upon the individual patient indications for the exam and resulting data set.
Kardia Echo
Kardia Echo is Web-based echocardiography workflow and lab management. Developed at Mayo Clinic by physicians, allied health and information technology specialists, Kardia Echo is a comprehensive software solution for physicians, sonographers, allied health, secretarial and lab management staff that accurately, yet easily, addresses all aspects of the echocardiography laboratory’s needs. Kardia Echo facilitates each phase of a patient visit, starting with user-friendly scheduling of appointments, through assignment of responsible healthcare personnel, to logical template-guided entry of echocardiographic information with easy-to-access clinical normal values and severity scales. The system automatically generates interpretive diagnostic statements and billing information.
Kardia Vascular
Kardia Vascular provides web-based, fully integrated reporting and image viewing solution for your vascular practice. With Kardia Vascular, labs have seamless integration to view and manipulate images, reports and workflow data, creating operational efficiencies with greater patient and physical satisfaction. Kardia Vascular offers reporting for the most frequently performed vascular procedures:
- Carotid duplex
- Renal
- Aorta-Iliac Duplex
- Upper and lower arterial
- Lower extremity venous
Kardia Vascular structured reports meet ICAVL requirements for Accreditation.
Kardia Nuclear
Kardia Nuclear is state-of-the-art software for the quantification and review of cardiac perfusion and function. Kardia understands the clinical demands placed upon nuclear cardiology quantification software. Kardia Nuclear (in partnership with INVIA Corridor4DM), establishes new precedents with its configurable user interface and delivers a comprehensive solution, mitigating the need for multiple applications. As a result, more medical imaging professionals are requesting Kardia Nuclear to improve the efficiency, accuracy, and quality of their diagnostic interpretations.
Accurate Image Display Performance
With a foundation of algorithms developed at the University of Michigan, Kardia
Nuclear provides robust nuclear cardiology quantification via result and image displays.
The inclusion of basal plane motion provides more accurate quantitative measurements,
resulting in improved detection of coronary artery disease.
Multiple Clinical Solutions in a Single Application
Kardia Nuclear is a comprehensive solution for physicians and technologists. Its
integrated workflow includes quality assurance measures; intelligent workflows for
greater efficiency; the quantification of myocardial perfusion and bloodpool studies;
and multiple review screens. These features are combined into a single application.
Choose Your Modality
Are you a SPECT-only site? A PET-only site? Or perhaps you work with both. Regardless
of your modality, Kardia Nuclear has a package perfect for you.
