A New Way of Thinking

Sparq delivers by providing a new ultrasound experience.

Sparq’s unique user interface, intelligent automation, and outstanding image quality combine to make the system easy to learn and easy to use.

Below is a generalized description of this systems technology, specifications, features, and options. The below may not reflect the features and options available on units in our inventory.

A Uniquely Simplified Ultrasound System
The Simplicity Mode on the Sparq system presents only the ultrasound functions that you use most often. The Intuitive Dynamic Interface adjusts as you interact with the control panel. The AutoSCAN feature automatically identifies tissue types and continuously adjusts image gain.
The Exam Dashboard seamlessly walks you through the steps needed to begin an exam. The Temporary ID feature assigns a unique, temporary number to each unidentified patient, allowing you to immediately start scanning.
SmartExam provides on-screen guided workflow for fully customizable exam protocols while automating system functions, and thus increasing consistency. When the exam is complete, comprehensive tools aid analysis and reporting. Wireless
DICOM networking capabilities make it easy to share and archive images and reports.

Remote reporting – Telexy Qpath
Sparq’s Remote Reporting* feature provides clinicians remote access to the Telexy Qpath** POCUS workflow solution. This feature allows clinicians to interact with the ultrasound images and Qpath worksheets directly from Sparq. The ability to complete and approve ultrasound exam reports at the point-of-care uniquely enhances work flow in the emergency department.

The gold standard for security
Philips recognizes the importance of securing your ultrasound system and protecting your patient data. The security feature on Sparq is a defense-in-depth strategy that comprises five layers: firewall, operating system hardening, malware protection, access controls, and patient data encryption. Each of these layers plays an important role in helping you thwart hackers, defend against malware, and prevent unauthorized access.

Designed for your environment
Sparq’s ergonomic design and small footprint make it easy to position even in the most constrained clinical environments. For scanning comfort, the clinician can independently adjust the height of the system as well as the height of the monitor. To facilitate easy viewing, the large 17-inch monitor with automatic ambient light compensation is on an articulating arm.
The sealed, tempered glass control panel facilitates easy cleaning and disinfecting.
Sparq features a long battery life that provides mobility and access at the bedside. The Sleep Mode lets you save battery power and provides “instant on” when you need it.
