Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.

Integration
The current Sonio family platform page describes DICOM worklist and PACS/VNA integration, HL7/FHIR and EHR connectivity, and support across ultrasound manufacturers. The page's current clinical-AI footnote refers to Sonio Detect, so these family capabilities are not asserted as exact K243614 interfaces.
Public source Product family Checked 2026-09-07
Deployment and data flow
The exact materials describe a SaaS web application accessible from an internet-connected tablet or computer during or after fetal ultrasound, with uploaded images or an ultrasound-system connection.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-06
Security and privacy
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-07

Current family security and compliance statements were not treated as an exact K243614 attestation.

Training and support
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Training, onboarding, competency, and support commitments are commercial implementation details that require current vendor documentation.

Monitoring and change control
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Local acceptance testing, production monitoring, drift review, update control, and incident escalation require a current vendor and site-specific governance plan.

SaaS access

The exact FDA materials describe a web application accessed from an internet-connected tablet or computer during or after the fetal ultrasound exam.

Family interoperability

The current Sonio family page describes DICOM worklist/PACS/VNA, HL7/FHIR and EHR connections across ultrasound manufacturers; it does not establish exact K243614 interfaces and its clinical-AI footnote refers to Sonio Detect.

Manual override and clinician control

The exact labeling permits the user to override the per-finding status, and current Sonio terms preserve physician judgment as the controlling boundary.
