What You Should Know:

– FUJIFILM Sonosite Inc., the leader in point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) solutions, has unveiled a game-changer for healthcare professionals: Sonosite Voice Assist.

– The innovative feature allows doctors to control their Sonosite PX and Sonosite LX ultrasound systems using voice commands, freeing their hands for critical procedures.

Benefits of Sonosite Voice Assist

  • Enhanced Efficiency: Streamline workflows by controlling the ultrasound system hands-free, reducing procedural time and cost.
  • Improved Sterility: Eliminate the need for an assistant in the room, minimizing the risk of contamination.
  • Enhanced Focus: Stay fully engaged with the patient without distractions, leading to better patient care.
  • Reduced Fatigue: Hands-free operation minimizes physical strain, especially during long procedures.
  • Accessibility: Voice control offers a convenient option for users with limited hand mobility.

By integrating voice control, Fujifilm Sonosite is empowering doctors to work more efficiently, effectively, and safely.

“This groundbreaking advancement demonstrates FUJIFILM Sonosite’s commitment to not only enhancing its products but also improving patient care and empowering healthcare professionals to deliver the best possible medical services,” said Rich Fabian, chief executive officer and president of FUJIFILM Sonosite. “Performing ultrasound without having to touch and configure controls not only helps to maintain a sterile environment and enhance flexibility but makes performing an exam more accessible for every level of user.”
