ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- HIMSS
2017 [Booth #2971] – Zebra
Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), a global leader in
providing solutions and services that give enterprises real-time
visibility into their operations, today announced two new
purpose-built mobile handheld devices that will improve clinical
mobility workflows and patient care. The durable TC51-HC mobile
computer and the DS8100-HC series scanners can foster
clinical collaboration for staffers and drive better operational
efficiencies, while also supporting the five rights of medication
administration to help increase patient safety.
KEY FACTS
- The DS8100-HC imager series, which comes in both corded
(DS8108-HC) and cordless (DS8178-HC) versions, feature a
purpose-built housing using special plastics to help prevent the
spread of bacteria and allow for safe wipe-downs with a wide
selection of disinfectants used in hospitals.
- The DS8100-HC series features user-selectable feedback modes to
instantly notify healthcare workers that a barcode was properly
captured without disturbing patients. In addition to standard LED,
vibrate and beeper feedback, users can individually or in any
combination easily adjust beeper volume, frequency and illumination
intensity to improve the patient experience.
- Both the DS8100-HC series and the TC51-HC mobile computer can
capture virtually any barcode in any condition and scan the most
problematic barcodes found in pharmacies, labs, and at the point of
care to help improve productivity and efficiency.
- Healthcare providers can rely on the TC51-HC mobile computer
with Android™ to replace multiple devices needed to perform tasks
such as calling/texting co-workers, receiving calls via PBX,
accessing patient records, scanning barcodes and increasing
medication administration accuracy. By consolidating these
applications into one device, tasks may be executed with ease and
proficiency.
- An ultra-high resolution rear-facing camera and a front-facing
camera enable healthcare professionals using the TC51-HC to provide
an intricate account of patient condition and offer remote
consultation for quicker service.
- Zebra's Workforce Connect™: PTT Express solution comes
pre-installed and pre-licensed on the TC51-HC, providing clinicians
with a push-to-talk (PTT) option right out of the box with any PTT
Express-enabled Zebra mobile computer, providing better
collaboration and communication between healthcare workers. An
integrated healthcare dictionary also enables autofill and
suggestions for quicker and more accurate data entry.
