CAMPBELL, Calif., /PRNewswire/ -- Dicom Systems, Inc. (www.dcmsys.com), a leader in Enterprise Imaging IT, and WinguMD, (www.wingumd.com) a clinical collaboration mobile app, have announced a joint deployment for Nicklaus Children's Hospital in Miami, Florida. Nicklaus Children's is consistently recognized amongst the best children's hospitals in the nation in U.S. News & World Report's "Best Children's Hospitals" edition and no other hospital in Florida has more ranked specialties as listed in the 2018-19 report. As a CHIME #1 "Most Wired" hospital in 2018, Nicklaus has the largest pediatric teaching program in the southeastern U.S. with a track record of leading healthcare IT. In order to better integrate clinical communications over mobile, Nicklaus Children's sought to implement a secure, centralized platform to capture and share clinical photos inside their EHR. WinguMD provided sharing and indexing of serial clinical photos across care teams as well as comparison with pathology, wound care and other imaging. Unifier by Dicom Systems served as the integration engine for workflow and interoperability. Elise Hermes, Chief Nursing Information Officer for Nicklaus Children's Health System said, "Nicklaus Children's is excited about the communication tools and interdisciplinary collaboration provided by WinguMD. Prior to deploying the application, clinical photos were stored in multiple devices using numerous manual processes. Quality, continuity, security, and integration were our key drivers and intended outcomes. WinguMD is a single and seamless solution for clinical photos that answers the needs of our care teams." "We are on the cusp of a mHealth revolution. Nicklaus Children's Hospital is an innovative institution that leverages technology to provide better patient care. We are pleased to be the chosen vendor to meet their mobile clinical photo and collaboration needs," said Dr. Oliver Aalami, practicing vascular surgeon and Co-Founder of WinguMD.

Recent research shows growing interest in this emerging solutions category. Frost & Sullivan noted the adoption of visible light imaging modalities across several image-using and image-producing specialties was gaining traction across healthcare organizations. Meanwhile, KLAS Research released a 2018 Enterprise Imaging report that listed adopting and standardizing encounter-based imaging and visible light images as having the greatest impact on workflow success. "This tight integration at Nicklaus Children's Hospital is a tribute to the fundamental value of interoperability. We seamlessly deployed this solution leveraging Nicklaus Children's existing IT ecosystem with zero downtime impact on existing infrastructure. The newly enabled workflows do not cause end-users to deviate from existing workflows, which means they are naturally adopting the solution," said Florent Saint-Clair, Executive Vice President of Dicom Systems. "Providers and residents can now use iOS devices to collaborate in a controlled, secure, hospital-sanctioned environment. Dicom Systems in partnership with WinguMD co-founders, Dr. Aalami and Manabu Tokunaga, are proud to be in the trenches with providers, empowering clinical teams to collaborate on the best care for their pediatric patients." Dicom Systems (#7900) and WinguMD (#1158G) will be exhibiting in their respective booths during the 104th Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting from November 25-29, 2018 at McCormick Place in Chicago, CA.
