Plavno developed an embedded analytics module that turns ECG (electrocardiogram) and digital stethoscope device data into structured, research-ready intelligence for pharma R&D teams.
Overview
This case reflects Plavno’s work as a specialized module development partner inside a broader healthcare and clinical technology ecosystem. The client’s core platform already existed, while Plavno delivered a dedicated intelligence layer for connected diagnostic devices. The solution processed ECG and digital stethoscope data, structured those outputs into usable research intelligence, and supported observational, clinical, and trial-related workflows where raw device signals needed to become more operationally useful.
Better use of connected clinical device data inside pharma and research workflows
More structured handling of ECG and digital stethoscope signals
Faster access to meaningful device-driven insights
Stronger support for pharma R&D, observational studies, and trial analytics
Higher platform value through advanced clinical data intelligence capabilities

Pharma R&D and clinical research platforms often receive rich streams of device-generated data, but raw diagnostic outputs are not always easy to operationalize. Common challenges included:
Raw device signals were difficult to use inside broader trial workflows
ECG and stethoscope outputs needed clearer structuring and interpretation support
Research teams needed faster access to clinically relevant device signals
Diagnostic data existed, but was not always usable for downstream analytics
The platform needed stronger differentiation through advanced research intelligence capabilities
The client wanted to make device-generated clinical data more actionable inside the research environment without rebuilding the full platform core.

The platform needed to:
Process ECG data inside the research platform
Process digital stethoscope data in the same environment
Convert device outputs into more structured and research-usable insights
Support pharma and clinical research workflows
Fit naturally into broader observational and trial-related processes
Remain modular and reusable as part of the existing platform ecosystem
There were also important constraints:
The core system already existed, so the analytics platform had to integrate rather than replace
The value had to come from improving how device data was used, not just displaying it
The solution needed to support researchers and clinical teams without disrupting workflows
The platform had to strengthen trial intelligence and R&D decision support through practical analytics capabilities
