The hospital is joining forces with Dicom Systems, a provider of enterprise imaging IT, and WinguMD, a clinical collaboration mobile app.
The new mobile solution is a centralized platform that features the ability to capture and share clinical photos inside the EHR as well as the ability to compare with pathology, wound care and other imaging. It also features social-media style platform reports on patient status.
Nicklaus Children’s Hospital Chief Nursing Information Officer Elise Hermes said in a statement that previously “clinical photos were stored in multiple devices using numerous manual processes.” With the implementation of the new solution, the hospital hopes to streamline workflow and improve interdisciplinary collaboration.
