Northern Nevada Medical Center Adopts Digisonics CVIS to Revolutionize Cardiac Care

May 08,2025

Why Northern Nevada Medical Center Chose Digisonics CVIS

Hospitals today face increasing pressure to improve efficiency while maintaining high standards of patient care. NNMC's decision to implement Digisonics CVIS was driven by several critical factors:

A. Need for Streamlined Workflows

Manual data entry and disconnected systems were causing delays in reporting.

Clinicians needed faster access to cardiac imaging and structured reports.

B. Demand for Remote Accessibility

With physicians often working remotely or across multiple locations, secure, cloud-based access to patient data was essential.

DigiNet Pro enables real-time collaboration among cardiologists, regardless of location.

C. Integration with Existing Infrastructure

NNMC required a system that could seamlessly connect with their Siemens Sequoia ultrasound machines and Medweb EMR.

Digisonics' DataLink interface ensures smooth, error-free data transfer.

D. Regulatory Compliance & Data Security

HIPAA-compliant secure logins and encrypted data transmission protect patient confidentiality.

Automated reporting reduces compliance risks associated with manual documentation.

By adopting Digisonics, NNMC aims to reduce administrative burdens, minimize errors, and enhance diagnostic precision—all while improving clinician satisfaction.

DigiView & DigiNet Pro: Powering Next-Gen Cardiac Imaging

The Digisonics CVIS platform combines two powerful components:

A. DigiView – Advanced Image Management & Reporting

Unified Imaging Hub: Consolidates echocardiograms, vascular studies, and other cardiac images in one system.

Structured Reporting: Standardized templates ensure consistency while allowing customization for complex cases.

Quick Retrieval: Instant access to historical studies for comparative analysis.

B. DigiNet Pro – Cloud-Based Networked Interpretation

Secure Remote Access: Physicians can review cases from any device with an internet connection.

Real-Time Collaboration: Multiple specialists can simultaneously access and interpret studies.

Automated Notifications: Alerts clinicians when new reports are available.

"The ability to pull up a patient’s echocardiogram from my home office has been a game-changer," says Dr. Lisa Carter, a cardiologist at NNMC.

How Automated Interfaces Transform Cardiology Workflows

A major advantage of Digisonics CVIS is its seamless integration with hospital systems:

A. DataLink: Eliminating Manual Data Entry

Direct DICOM & HL7 Integration: Pulls measurements from Siemens Sequoia ultrasound machines into structured reports.

Reduces Errors: Eliminates transcription mistakes that could affect diagnosis.

B. EMR Integration via PDF Export

Completed reports are automatically sent to Medweb EMR upon e-signature.

Ensures timely updates to patient records without manual uploads.

C. Interoperability with PACS & Other Modalities

Supports multi-modality imaging (echo, nuclear, CT, MRI).

Future-proof design allows for expansion into other specialties.

Result: NNMC estimates a 30% reduction in reporting time, allowing cardiologists to focus more on patient care.

The Impact on Cardiology Departments

The implementation of Digisonics CVIS brings measurable improvements:

A. Faster Diagnoses, Better Outcomes

Reduced turnaround time for critical cardiac reports.

Early detection of abnormalities due to efficient image review.

B. Enhanced Physician Productivity

Fewer administrative tasks mean more time for patient interaction.

Mobile access allows for flexible workflows.

C. Cost & Resource Optimization

Lower IT overhead with automated data transfers.

Reduced paper dependency supports sustainability goals.

"Our echo lab is now more efficient than ever," reports NNMC’s Cardiology Director.

The Future of Cardiovascular Informatics

Digisonics’ technology aligns with key trends in healthcare IT:

A. AI-Assisted Diagnostics

Future updates may include AI-powered analysis for faster interpretations.

B. Telecardiology Expansion

Remote reporting will become standard, expanding access to specialists.

C. Interoperability with Wearables & IoT

Potential integration with patient-generated health data (e.g., smart ECGs).

Conclusion: A Smart Investment for Modern Cardiology

Northern Nevada Medical Center’s adoption of Digisonics CVIS demonstrates how technology can revolutionize cardiac care. By automating workflows, enabling remote access, and ensuring seamless EMR integration, NNMC is setting a new standard for cardiovascular excellence.
