Zebra Technologies leads the next generation of clinical mobility

Zebra Technologies Corporation, a market leader in rugged mobile computers, barcode scanners and barcode printers which operates in Africa, is showcasing two solutions that improve clinical mobility workflows and patient care at Arab Health held at the Dubai World Trade Centre from January 29 to February 1.

The DS8100-HC series scanners and the durable TC51-HC mobile computer 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.

PRODUCTS 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.

Hozefa Saylawala, Sales director, Middle East, Zebra Technologies, said: “Zebra purpose-built healthcare mobile devices enable better care collaboration, improve clinician communication and optimise workstreams resulting in clinicians being able to spend more time with patients at the point-of-care. Zebra DS8100-HC series scanner and the TC51-HC mobile computer demonstrate our continued investment in clinical mobility helping caregivers deliver the right care to the right patient at the right time.”
