- Welcome to our Fujifilm Sauna Site webinar.
We're just gonna give our attendees a a
moment here to log in.
We'll be right with you. Thank you.
Okay. Welcome to our behind the scan webinar series.
My name is Lisa Francia
and today we have an exciting presentation
and demonstration of the new Sauna site px.
Before we begin, please be advised all attendees are muted.
You may type your questions into the q
and a box in the toolbar located at the bottom
or side of your screen at any time during the program.
This is being recorded and we will conduct the q
and a session at the end of the presentation.
Now it's my pleasure to introduce our presenters.
First we have Audra Upton, who's the director
of clinical Applications.
She's been with Fujifilm for 13 years.
She graduated from the University of Oklahoma
with a degree in ultrasound
as an a registered cardiac vascular sonographer.
Audra and her team remains customer focused
and are specialized in providing top level point
of care ultrasound education.
Next we have Craig Chamberlain, the director
of our Experience design.
Craig's been with Fujifilm Cyte
for nine years leading the experience design team.
Prior to Cyte, Craig was the president
of Carbon Design Group for seven years
where he shepherded carbon's transformation from design
services company to one
of the nation's premier full service product
development consultancies.
That shift led to a significant growth in revenue, influence
and recognition by international design.
Unity sweeping the industrial Design Excellence gold awards
for medical products in 2009.
Most recently recognized
with the Silver Industrial Design excellent award
for the SA site S two in 2016.
It's my great pleasure to introduce Craig
who will get us started today.
Thank you.
- Thank you Lisa. And as Lisa mentioned, I'm the director
of design at Fujifilm Sono site
and we're glad to have you
as participating in this webinar series
and especially our final webinar of this series
where clarity meets confidence.
Socy has a rich history of delivering innovative solutions
to our customer's needs.
With the SonoSite px, we're launching the first
of our next generation of point-of-care systems.
This product is a new platform built from the ground up
to deliver innovative solutions.
It incorporates new technologies
and new features to empower our users to accomplish more.
The Sono site PX was born from real world clinician needs
and it delivers solutions
to overcome real workflow challenges.
We began with a systematic approach to observe, immerse,
and engage with our customers in their
daily healthcare lives.
The team traveled to sites all over the world
and spent hundreds of hours with individual clinicians
and with groups to understand their needs, their workflow,
and their obstacles.
We brought back more than 400 data points that led
to the laid the foundation
for the product development process for the Sono site px.
Those data points show up in both the overall product
and in the smallest details of the Sono site PX system.
The result of all of that research and then design
and engineering and clinical engineering is the
Sono site px.
We designed every detail of this system
to provide innovative solutions to customers in the point
of care settings where they, that they face every day.
Its purpose is to
as assist clinicians in improving patient outcomes
by providing diagnostic confidence
for any patient anywhere, anytime.
Sono Site PX supports many different use models within the
hospital and office environments.
Throughout the development process, we strove
to improve access to provide our clinicians
with confidence while all the while keeping things simple.
We accomplish this by making socy PX adaptable
to the many environments our clinicians provide care in
by delivering amazing image clarity
and by delivering workflow efficiency for every clinician.
So let's take a look a quick look at some
of the workflow enhancements
that we have in the Sono site px,
there are many situations when every second counts.
That's why Sono Site PX has been designed
around every detail
of the way clinicians work and deliver care.
Complex workflows have been removed to lower cognitive load
and we've created optimized layouts
and data entry forms that reduce screen taps
and button pushes.
Imaging has been optimized for each individual exam type
or preset by provide,
and that provides quick access
to the answers our clinicians are looking for
and management of all the patient data is found in a single
location that integrates seamlessly
with Sono site synchronicity.
Workflow manager, Sono site PX exam types
or presets have been designed for
what we call plunk imaging.
So optimized imaging partnered with optimized workflow
to display the most used functions as well
as exam specific annotations and calculations.
Whether you're performing a cardiac exam
or an MSK study, the touch panel will provide you with
an optimized set of controls streamlined
for the job you're you're trying to do.
Calculations are also optimized based on your selected
preset and organized in a way
that makes them easily accessible based on the
goal of your exam.
With the Socy px,
we've introduced a focused cardiac exam type,
which provides a more targeted set of calculations
to choose from to improve your efficiency when evaluating
heart function, to diagnose overall patient wellbeing.
This includes our new volume status
and assisted cardiac output calculations,
which remove complexity when assessing fluid responsiveness.
In addition to workflow,
we listened when our customers told us how, told us
how important imaging clarity is to them.
Sono PX delivers the most advanced image clarity we have
ever offered using a new proprietary speckle reduction
technology and the introduction
of a new family of transducers.
Sono PX was designed
to provide our clinicians an unparalleled level
of confidence to diagnose
and treat their patients with improved penetration,
faster frame rates, better tissue resolution,
and improved color performance.
Delivering the image clarity our clinicians need to
to be more accurate and efficient in their workflows.
So what does all this improved image clarity
and detail mean for you?
Well, it allows you to see more and do more.
It empowers clinicians to more easily interpret images,
including seeing finer details to
and better tissue resolution and support, faster diagnosis
and time to treatment.
I mentioned earlier we have a whole new family
of transducers for the sono px
and today I wanna highlight the the Socy P five one.
The P five one phased array transducer was designed
with single crystal technology
that provides higher sensitivity, produces less artifact
and has better penetration.
The new speckle reduction technology
and faster frame rates seen on the sono site.
PX work together with the P five one
to generate the superb cardiac imaging seen here along
with a new feature introduced the sono site
PX color compare.
Color compare provides the ability
to simultaneously assess in both 2D and color,
but the P five one doesn't stop there.
Also included are optimized exam types for BO, for abdomen
and lung making this the perfect assistant
for performing cardiac abdominal
and lung exams with a single transducer solution.
Also available on the cardiac
and abdominal exam types is right zoom,
right zoom improves spatial resolution
and is beneficial for seeing detail in cardiac valves
as well as any structure where visualization
of small details and measurements is important.
The image on in the image on the right,
you see a per sternal long axis view of the heart
and in its focused on the left ventricle
and we use this
for our assisted cardiac output measurements.
Audra Upton, our director of clinical applications, is going
to take a deeper dive into these measurements in our
live demonstration.
Audra,
- Thank you so much Craig.
As Craig said, my name is Audra Upton, I am the director
for the clinical applications team.
If you've had the pleasure of joining us
for the previous webinars, then you've seen the px,
you've seen an overview of the system, we've gone
through the workflow efficiency
and the improvements we've made from a workflow standpoint.
Last week, bill Medford took us through some improvements
that we made with image clarity
and today we're gonna kind of tie it all together
and we're gonna be demonstrating some improvements
that we've made with some of our calculations.
Specifically, we're gonna be going over volume status
and the assisted cardiac output.
Before we do that,
I do just wanna provide a very brief overview.
So what you're seeing on your screen now is
that hybrid system,
and what I mean by that is the top portion is a touch panel
and the bottom portion are tactile keys.
We're actually gonna start out first by just going into
that patient information screen.
So this is that green button.
Once I type that, it's gonna take me
to the patient demographic screen.
Now don't worry if you didn't mean to tap
that you still have access to change your transducer
or go go directly into scanning.
What we're gonna do first here is gonna select the
transducer, and so we're gonna select transducer.
And what I just want to show you is
that the system is designed with triple transducer connect.
So you can see we have three transducers connected right
now, our L 12 three, our C five one and our P five one.
Now today we're gonna be focusing primarily on
that P five transducer.
As Craig mentioned, it really is important
that you choose the correct exam type for what it is
that you're going to be scanning
because based on that exam type, the imaging parameters,
the optimization controls, annotations
and calculations are all going to be optimized for
that specific exam type.
So right now we're actually gonna be doing the majority
of our scanning today on that focused cardiac exam type.
So it's already selected.
So we're just gonna simply tap scan
and it's gonna take us to that touch panel.
Just a reminder, this touch panel is going
to adapt based on the transducer chosen,
the exam type chosen,
and then obviously the imaging mode that we're going
to be scanning in down at the bottom
of the interface are those tactile keys.
And those tactile keys really are those persistent keys
that they're the most common parameters that are updated
or optimized independent of the transducer
or the exam type chosen.
You're always gonna be evaluating the depth
that you're imaging at or the gain.
You're gonna wanna be able to freeze your image
or change your imaging modes.
So you can always find those persistent keys
down at the bottom.
Now if you take a look, you'll notice
that those keys are uniquely shaped.
We did that on purpose
and that is so that you, as you're scanning,
you can actually reach over
to the machine without looking away from your patient
or looking away from the clinical monitor.
And you can feel just by by the shape of the button itself
or the raised portions
and you can know with confidence exactly where you are,
where you are on the system
and know which button you're going to be selecting.
Okay, so first we're actually, I'm gonna switch you back.
We're gonna talk about that touch panel just a little bit,
but more specifically the calc package update.
So all I'm gonna do here is just tap the calc button,
which is one of those tactile keys down at the bottom
because we have the P five one transducer activated
and we're in the focused cardiac exam type.
We're going to see the calculations available to us within
that specific exam type.
I'm gonna go ahead and just select volume status
and I just wanna show you something really quickly
and what you'll notice is that a portion
of the measurements are actually grayed out.
And that is because right now I'm currently in a live 2D
image, and so this is just one way
that the PX is actually adapting for me
or it will adapt as I move through my workflow.
So what this is telling me is
that I'm not currently imaging in a mode where I could,
where I could actually use these measurements.
Now as soon as I freeze my image
because I'm in 2D, you will notice that the IVC maximum
and minimum as well as the LVOT diameter,
they become prominent because those are measurements
that now can be performed from a frozen 2D image.
Later on when we get into the doppler, you'll notice
that those doppler specific measurements,
those become activated.
Before we get into the process of how
to perform these measurements, I just wanted
to remind everybody of a new feature on the,
from a workflow perspective.
So let's say that you go up and you grab the machine
and you're scanning and you have a difficult
scan 'cause right?
Not every patient scans easily
and you finally get that image that you need,
you freeze your image
and you go into calcs only to find
that you have actually been scanning
underneath the wrong exam type
and you don't see the calculation
that you want available to you.
Now previously what you would've had
to have done is unfreeze your image, go back,
change your exam type, re-scan,
and then access the calculation that you need.
Well, not anymore.
So once I activate calcs, you'll notice at the top
where it says packages then focused cardiac
and now right now we're in volume status.
All you have to do is go to packages
and what you will see is the every calculation package
that is available for this specific transducer,
which is the P five one.
So you can see I can access abdomen calculations, cardiac,
the focus, the GYNM, MS, msk, the list goes on.
So that allows you to have your workflow uninterrupted
and you can access the calculation that you need, proceed
how you need, and then if you need to change your exam type
as you move forward through your exam, then that's great.
Okay, so let's go ahead and get started.
Now what we're gonna be doing first is we're gonna be
talking about evaluating volume
status on a patient.
And specifically right now we're gonna first focus on IVC
collapsibility.
Now just a reminder, IVC collapses measured specifically
for spontaneously breathing patients.
Now what you're gonna see as we go through this live demo,
I'm gonna be switching back
and forth from our live image that you see back to
that control panel because I want you
to have an appreciation for exactly the steps
that we're, that we're taking to perform these measurements.
So right now you can see we have the IVC going.
I'm actually gonna go ahead
and we're gonna do this measurement with M mode.
So what I'm doing is I'm just gonna hit the M down on
the tactile keys.
This brings up my cursor.
I'm gonna move my cursor from right to left.
I hit M again
and it's going to activate that M mode tracing.
Once have a full respiratory cycle, then I'm going
to simply freeze my image
and once it's frozen you can then see along
that end mode tracing, I can locate
where the patient had inspiration versus expiration.
Now going back to the control panel, you will notice
that when I hit calcs you will see
volume status be one of my options.
So I'm gonna go into volume status.
Now we have two options here.
You can see we have IVC collapse
and then we have the sensibility.
So first let's talk specifically about IVC collapse
because that is for spontaneously breathing patients.
So this allows us to
perform the measurement both from a maximum diameter
and a minimum diameter.
And when we do that, the system is going to be giving us
percent change or the percent collapse
and that will then allow us to be able to assess
or estimate right atrial pressure.
Now what I'm gonna do now I'm gonna go ahead
and unfreeze my image
because I want to show you that one of the changes
that we've made with this system is go ahead,
I'm gonna go ahead and freeze my image right now
and then just show you with the volume status
that we now have multiple ways to evaluate volume status.
So go back to two, I'm gonna go back into 2D,
now I'm gonna go into my calcs.
Okay, so back to this first menu here where we have
that IVC collapse because again, we're in 2D,
but what I wanna specifically point out is the ability
to look at not just IVC collapse IVC collapse ratio
to evaluate a patient's volume status,
but we've now introduced the ability
to look at a patient's L-V-O-T-V-T-I.
And if you'll notice above where it says pre L-V-O-T-V-T-I,
there's a pre option
and then right to the right there's a post option.
And what this is for is this allows you
to perform a fluid challenge
or a maneuver such as a passive leg raise
to really evaluate a patient's fluid responsiveness.
So in a moment we're gonna be demonstrating this
with assisted cardiac output,
but the nice thing with this measurement is that it's going
to give you a percent change.
And so it's really giving you that extra layer
of information that previously we did not offer.
Therefore, just giving you more confidence in how you need
to proceed in treating, in treating your patients.
You'll also notice on the display
where it says respiratory variation, this is also new.
So I mentioned earlier that IVC collapse is specific
for spontaneously breathing patients.
Well we all know that we treat patients
who are mechanically ventilated
and this option under respiratory variation is going
to give you the options that you have in order
to assess a patient that is mechanically ventilated.
Now doing, looking at a patient's L-V-O-T-V max
or at A VTI, instead
of the system giving you a percent change calculation
result, it's gonna be giving you a percent variation.
And as I mentioned, percent variation can be used
specifically in assessing mechanically ventilated patient's
volume status and is calculated by comparing the change
of stroke volume between inspiration and expiration.
And we've given you multiple ways to do that.
If you didn't want
to look at specifically the percent variation,
we do have that IVC extensibility.
So it's performed exactly how you do an IVC collapse ratio
except now we're looking at the disability.
So you all know that
during mechanical ventilation the IVC diameter increases
with positive inspiratory pressure
and then the amount of distension can be measured
to assess a patient's volume status
and really help in predicting their fluid responsiveness.
Now you heard me mention earlier something
that we are calling assisted cardiac output.
The thing that I love about assisted cardiac output is
that it really does take the information
that we're providing you from a percent change standpoint
and we're giving it all to you
through a new feature called assisted cardiac output.
Assisted cardiac output specifically removes steps
and complex complexity
that you typically find from performing a cardiac
output manually.
And we're gonna be walking you through exactly
how to do that.
So to do a cardiac output, you always want to start
with a parasternal long axis view.
So we're just gonna grab that really quickly
and we're gonna be focusing on
that left ventricular outflow tract
because that's the diameter that we're gonna be using.
If you're familiar with calculating cardiac output,
then you know it requires two views.
So first it's going to start out with
that parasternal long axis view
and here momentarily we're gonna be switching over
and getting an apical five chamber view.
So first this is a great view as Craig mentioned, one thing
that we have added on the PX is the ability
for a right zoom cardiac scanning.
So I'm actually just gonna hit the zoom option
and I'm going to place that zoom box.
Now I can change the size of that zoom box if I wanted to,
but I'm just gonna move that zoom box over the area
of the LVOT
and then I'm going to hit zoom again,
that's gonna activate the zoom
and then you can see we've zoomed up on this area.
Now we're gonna freeze the image so that it's mid systole
where the aortic valve is open.
Now if you freeze the image
and you froze it a little late,
don't worry if you'll actually notice once the image is
frozen you can use the track pad in the center
of the tactile keys and you can actually rewind
or fast forward to the, to the portion of the image that has
that aortic valve open.
Once we do that, then we're just gonna go back to
that calcs button on the tactile keys.
This is going to bring up the calcs menu.
Now we're already in assisted cardiac output.
You can see LVOT diameter is the one that's activated.
I have selected that now I'm just gonna switch back over,
show you where it is that we're gonna be measuring.
We're just gonna be measuring that diameter of the LVOT.
It's always from inside to inside. There we go.
And now I'm just simply gonna save that.
You'll notice that as I save it, we now have
that measurement demonstrated on the touch panel
on the right side.
So you can see now on that L-V-O-T-D option,
it has a little one in the upper left hand corner
demonstrating that we have one measurement
and then you can clearly see the measurement displayed
on the right side.
Now from here we're actually going to unfreeze our image
and we are gonna move to an apical five chamber view.
So I'm gonna just hit 2D that takes zoom off
and now we're gonna get that apical five chamber.
Now with assisted cardiac output,
I'm gonna show you two ways to use this new software.
We can use this both with a live image
and from a frozen image.
The first example is going to be demonstrating the software
with a live image.
So I have the apical five chamber.
I personally always like to use color in conjunction.
If you're ever having a hard time getting a clear 2D image
color can really help you in locating where
that outflow tract is because you can easily see as
that blood flow is heading out of the left ventricle
through the outflow tract, it's clearly blue.
And then that would help me identify exactly where
that outflow tract is.
Now I have color where I want it.
I'm just gonna hit D on the tactile keys.
This brings up doppler.
I'm gonna place my doppler gate within the area
of the left ventricular outflow tract.
I hit D again, this is actually going
to activate my doppler signal.
Now I'm gonna switch back
because I wanna show you something on the control panel.
So we have our live tracing.
What I'm gonna do is I'm actually gonna hit Cal
and when I hit calcs you will notice
that the control panel shows both pre and post.
I wanna make sure that the pre is highlighted.
So you can see around
that cardiac output the box is highlighted.
Now I'm gonna switch back over to my ultrasound image
because what I want to demonstrate to you is
that you can actually see the software is automatically
measuring the wave form.
And if you look in the upper left hand corner,
you can see a real time feed of the cardiac output.
So 5.6, 5.7, 5.8.
You can see it cycling through
and it's giving me the cardiac output at that point for
that specific waveform.
Now once you feel like you have a good waveform set
of waveforms, you're simply going to freeze your image
As soon as I freeze, you will notice
that I now have five wave forms measured on the ultrasound
image on that doppler signal.
This is where the PX has really taken the
complexity out of performing a cardiac output measurement.
So again, traditionally you would've had to do
your LDOT diameter, you would've had to trace your velocity
waveform and then you would've had to measure your,
your heart rate assisted cardiac output is actually doing
two of those three measurements for you.
Now this is where I love how this software works.
I'm gonna switch over to the control panel
because what I want to show you is that on the right side
of your image we're actually showing our work.
So I equate this to like if you're performing long division,
you have to show your work of how you came to
that conclusion, how you got the result that you got.
And that's what we're doing here
for you is we're showing you our work,
we're showing you based on each individual waveform, what
that cardiac output is, what the VTI is
and what the heart rate is.
And what that allows for you
as the physician is it allows you to be the physician
and to make the call whether
or not the software maybe grabbed
or a a wrong beat
or maybe it calculated heart rate
and had one that was just off access and
and didn't cap didn't capture it correctly.
This is where you have the ability to confirm
as many measurements as you want
or you can delete whichever one that you want.
Now in this instance I'm gonna show you,
I'm gonna switch back over because
what you're gonna notice is if you look at each waveform
right now, they are dotted lines.
So let's say that I wanted
to maybe change the measurement on the second one.
So all I have to do is on the control panel I tap
the second measurement.
I now can use my track pad
and you'll notice as I use that track pad, I can rework
that tracing, I can hit select,
I can adjust the heart rate if I didn't like the
individual measurement.
So you still have control over the measurement itself,
but let's say that you're happy with the way it measured,
then all you need to do is simply hit confirm.
You're gonna confirm each individual measurement on the
control panel and you will watch how each
of the dotted lines then comes solid.
And after I do that, I simply save it
and that's gonna save that into my calculation.
Now this is the pre measurement.
What you're gonna do now is you're going
to do either your fluid challenge
or you're going to perform that maneuver
of a passive leg raise.
In doing so, after you've given your fluid challenge,
you've done your maneuver, you're going
to repeat the measurement.
So we're gonna pretend that we just performed,
we just pushed a bolus of fluids.
You're now scanning your patient.
Again, you're gonna repeat that last step.
You're gonna get your LVOT in the apical five chamber.
You're gonna grab doppler except this time you're gonna make
sure that the post measurement is selected.
So go ahead and hit B
and this time we're gonna make sure that
that post measurement is selected on our control panel.
So I hit cals, I'm gonna make sure post is
activated and now it's going to be grabbing my measurement.
Again, you can see up at the top it says post
cardiac output.
And now I'm going to freeze that image,
it's going to grab five new measurements.
I'm now going to confirm those measurements
and you will see now in the upper left hand corner
how it's now giving me a cardiac output percent change
and it's giving me a stroke volume percent change as well
as a VTI percent variation change.
So all the information
that you would've gotten had you performed the measurement
separately within volume status,
we are actually giving you in this one calculation.
And like I said, what really
what most physicians are finding
that they really like about this is
that the system does trace those wave forms really well.
But it still gives you the the capability If you need
to make some minor adjustments, you certainly can.
Now what I wanna show you just lastly is
going back to 2D
and going back to that control panel, I just wanna show you
how you now have access to the report and the worksheet
and all of those measurements.
We're just gonna go to that reports tab
up in the upper left
and now we have those measurements
captured in a report page, both pre and post.
And you can save that as an image
and then that becomes part of your patient record.
And, and two, I wanna, I wanna say this as well.
So let's say you're not to this point where you're ready
to be performing calculations just yet, that's fine.
Maybe you need to master how to get the views.
This ultrasound system also has onboard learning,
so I'm just gonna go back to that 2D image
and I'm gonna show you that learn function on the system.
So if you really do need to start with the basics,
we're gonna go into acute care
and there are videos on here that show how
to perform BA basic scans.
How do you get a para sternal long access view?
How do I get that apical five chamber view?
The machine can take you through that.
In addition to the videos on the machine,
we also have the Sauna Cyte Institute,
which is an online learning platform that
as sauna site customers you have access to.
In addition to that, it's my team, my team
of clinical specialists, we're stenographers
and we can come out to your facility
and we can provide hands-on training with you as well.
We have resources for you really to give you the confidence
that you need to be able to treat your patients and
and give them the care that they need as well.
Thank you so much for taking some time, allowing us
to give an overview of the system of a couple
of these changes that we've made with these,
with these calculations.
I hope you found it to be super beneficial.
Right now we're actually gonna go ahead and move to a Q
and a session, so if you have any questions, feel free
to type that in to the Q and A box
and we will do our best to get them answered for you.
- Great, thank you Audra
and Craig for the presentation and demonstration.
We do have a few questions. First, can you hear me okay?
'cause I had a little audio problem.
- Yes. - Okay, great. Just wanna make sure.
So this improvement with the cardiac output,
what was the inspiration for making this
change, this improvement?
- So in in speaking with physicians, they would tell you
that they love the information that it, that it gives them,
but they found teaching it
and performing some of the steps of the measurement
to be really tedious, specifically tracing a waveform
and that really was a barrier for them.
And so we wanted to find a way to take some
of the difficult portions out for them
but still provide them with a lot of information,
more information that's gonna be able to,
to help them in treating their patients.
And with assisted cardiac output, as I showed,
you really only have to perform that one measurement
of the LVOT diameter.
Your next steps is really just activating the software
and letting the software do the remainder
of the measurements for you.
- Right? So it's much more efficient.
So how many steps have been reduced
with the assisted cardiac output when compared to
- Other So previously, yeah, so previously you would've had
to have gotten a para sternal long axis performed the LVOT
diameter moved to the apical five, you know,
placed your doppler, traced your wave form
and captured a heart rate.
So of the three measurements that you would've had
to done individually, you now only have to do one.
So it's really a three step process to like a one
and a half step process
because again, you still have to activate the software for
that final step, but you don't have
to perform those individual measurements.
- Right, right. Great.
And and how is evaluating volume status different on the px,
the Soto site PX versus the other products?
- So on our previous products we have IVC
collapse ratio.
Now you can always go in
and do your own VTI or Vmax.
We have that a available,
but we don't have the calculation of the pre and the post.
So what that means is you could perform the individual
measurements but you would have to take those components
and put it into a calculation to get that result
of the percent change
or the percent percent variation change.
And this system, we now have multiple ways
to do it and as we showed, does that pre in the post
measurement for you.
- Right. And a question just popped up on that topic,
I think we can ask this here, how reboot,
how reproducible is the assisted cardiac output?
- So I've had the opportunity now to go
and demo this quite a lot
and obviously I typically am the one
who demonstrates it first.
But I have been so impressed with physicians
like attending physicians and then residents and fellows
and even medical students who then can walk
away from me
and pre perform this measurement really, really easily.
And you know, something that I always,
so I'm a cardiac sonographer
and it's difficult when you have a tracing
that's gonna be automatic.
I wanted to see it in action with, do I have
to have the perfect waveform in order for it to be able
to detect the waveform?
And now you certainly can't just have a ton
of spectral noise and, and all of that,
but you don't have to have that perfect waveform.
The software is really, it detects it really well.
So I think we've done a really good job on being able
to reproduce the ability to, to do
that measurement and use that function.
I'm not sure if we lost Laura or not,
but I do see another question that has come in
and it says, oh are you there?
- I'm in and out. So if you could ask that question
that's on the list that would, sorry.
- Yeah, so there was one other question
that said if the work list will be used
to select the patient, is it an added step
to open the work list
or can the machine be set up to display the work list
by default?
So it is,
it is a step now we can default the system
to when we first started, we call it that kiosk view
where you see, you know, what do you wanna do,
do you wanna go straight to scanning
or choosing transducer, so forth and so on.
Now we can have the system default to
that patient demographic screen.
So it always triggers the user to have
to put in patient information information.
But what you'll see on that screen, there will be a button
and it will say query.
And so you will need to push that one button so it's not,
we can eliminate some of the steps
and just bring it in to where you have
to physically query that work list.
- Wonderful. Thank you for taking that question.
It looks like that's all the questions for right now.
Yes, I think that is all.
- Alright, well thank you for attending our, our webinars
and last webinar we have
and we please check out the website,
keep tabs on the website for our upcoming webinar schedule.
There's gonna be more of these as we, as we delve more into
how to use the the Sono site.
