Hygiene plays a very important role in medicine – this is nothing new, in and of itself. Yet many people are unaware that flawless data management has now become just as important. Good thing that handheld computers, such as the Memor X3 HC and Joya Touch A6 HC from Datalogic, deliver clean performance in every aspect.
Patient files, medication schedules and data from samples: in the healthcare sector an enormous amount of data is collected and monitored. Errors need to be excluded 100%, otherwise there is the threat of dramatic consequences. According to the German Medical Association’s annual survey, the total number of malpractices between 2015 and 2016 rose by 5.77% to 2,198* – an alarmingly large number, and grounds for process optimization.
Many malpractices are avoidable via adequate data management. That is why Datalogic developed lightweight and ergonomic mobile computers, like the Memor X3 HC and the Joya Touch A6 HC, which users constantly carry around with them. The advantage: they are used directly where data capture, data recall or data processing is needed. Both devices are WLAN-capable, so in buildings with comprehensive network coverage it does not matter where in the user is in during operation.
When bedside, the caregiver simply takes the handy Joya Touch A6 HC out of his pocket to retrieve the patient’s medication schedule from his wristband barcode. This way, he is sure that the medication and dosage are correct. A laboratory worker checks his Memor X3 HC to call up the information about an existing blood sample, and adds the test results to the file. Thus, the MDAs from Datalogic accompany workers the whole day long and increase productivity in key areas.
Areas of usage:
Keeping in mind the strict hygienic requirements in environments dealing with patients, samples and medication, Datalogic developed special housing for the Memor X3 HC and Joya Touch A6 HC. It withstands regular contact with a wide variety of cleansers and disinfectants, even aggressive ones, such as alcohol, hydrogen peroxide or liquid bleach. This way, users thoroughly clean the device after each use without worrying about damaging it.
Compact enough for single-hand usage, the healthcare variant of the popular Memor X3 offers full functionality in mobile data capture and wireless communication. Additionally, the Windows mobile terminal simplifies caregiving and administrative tasks with a 2D imager and two programmable side keys.
This healthcare variant of the retail mobile computer Joya Touch is just as handy and user-friendly as a smartphone. Charging and communication occur wirelessly, so that no contact points need to be cleaned. Users choose, as needed, between a model with or without a pistol grip.
Optimal data capture and communication properties in an ergonomic, hygienic shape: from the corner pharmacy to the municipal hospital, the Memor X3 HC and Joya Touch A6 HC are the ideal mobile computers for existing and new healthcare customers.
