“Our Speech Language Pathology team has been very happy integrating TIMS with our FEES system. It has allowed us to upload videos directly into the EMR and allowed physicians to view them and collaborate with our SLP team. We love the workstations, annotation, playback, touch screen monitors and ease of use that TIMS offers. It has helped our team be more efficient with completing the FEES, which results in seeing more patients. Also, the support team with TIMS is great to work with and always willing to help”.

Reimagine your workflow with TIMS Review
TIMS MVP allows recorded studies to be sent to a TIMS Review station in the SLP office for analysis using semi-automated tools. This workflow frees up endoscopic equipment for additional evaluations, allowing more patients to be seen per day.
With a myriad of analysis and measurement tools that feed directly into customizable reports, studies are completed accurately in a fraction of the time.

When advocating for FEES, it is important to understand current evidence, the ability to demonstrate the return on investment, and have an open mind to understanding the goals of the administrative team. Here are a few quick facts to help you get started:
FEES has been used in clinical practice for dysphagia since 1988. It is sensitive, predictive, practical, and is a valuable evaluation and treatment tool.
FEES is safe, well tolerated, and significantly impacts patient outcomes. There is no concern for radiation exposure, no time limit restraints in conduction, it uses regular foods and liquids, and can be conducted in a variety of settings.
The use of instrumental evaluations can help reduce healthcare costs and improve patient outcomes.
