Sony Electronics has received FDA 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the company’s NUCLeUS Operating Room, Imaging Management and Collaboration Control platform.
Proven in Europe with more than 500 operating room installations at leading hospitals in the UK, Belgium, Sweden and other locations, Sony is cleared to begin the marketing and sales of the network-based platform in the U.S. immediately.
Supporting up to 4K resolution using existing network infrastructure, NUCLeUS provides an enhanced, streamlined workflow for operating rooms and clinical spaces with direct access to imaging data from an easy-to-use central dashboard. With secure, managed access, professionals can capture and manage video and audio content in near real-time for collaboration and teaching purposes.
“We are eager to put NUCLeUS in the hands of doctors, nurses and OR managers in the U.S. so they can experience first-hand how the platform can dramatically improve surgical collaboration and potentially contribute to better patient outcomes,” said Theresa Alesso, president of Sony Electronics’ Pro division. “With the ongoing development of unique ‘smart applications,’ NUCLeUS will continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in the OR.”
Device Capabilities
NUCLeUS is designed to provide hospitals with a secure, encrypted means of recording, archiving, distributing and managing surgical video and other types of medical imaging and patient data without requiring expensive network infrastructure upgrades.
The software-based program reduces room hardware requirements and is fully scalable so that it can be easily extended to serve additional rooms or hospital buildings at any time. Also, additional smart applications and optional features can be added remotely as they are released.
NUCLeUS offers support for third-party applications via APIs and a variety of mechanisms and tools. Lastly, the device features secure HIS integration and is fully HL7 and DICOM compliant.
