Honeywell today launched a new clinical mobile device that connects hospital staff to the digital resources they need to provide a safer and more satisfying patient experience.
The new Dolphin™ CT50h mobile computer from Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions incorporates a barcode reader as well as the functionality and user experience of a smartphone. This helps hospital staff communicate, expedite admissions, simplify specimen collection and provide accurate medication administration.
By automating workflows and communications, Honeywell helps hospital staff become “connected clinicians” – significantly increasing productivity, responsiveness and safety to achieve greater patient satisfaction and enhancing hospital operations.
Sameer Agrawal, director, product marketing, Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions said: “We see increased adoption of mobile devices across the entire healthcare ecosystem. The Dolphin CT50h makes hospital staff ‘connected clinicians’ to free them from workstations-on-wheels or desktop computers. After studying nurse-patient interactions, we designed every aspect of this phone – from the size, weight and durability – to be focused on the user. With the ability to collect, access and analyse data without leaving the patient’s bedside, connected clinicians can achieve higher levels of productivity and accuracy while delivering a higher quality of care to their patients.”
The Honeywell solution is based on the Dolphin CT50h mobile computer, a powerful AndroidTM device that features best-in-class imaging hardware and decoding software for fast and accurate barcode reading. With a touch-screen interface, the ergonomic handheld computer provides hospital staff with patient identification and allows migration to a digitalised platform for documentation and record keeping.
The Dolphin CT50h supports a host of third-party Android applications from leading electronic medical record, nurse communication, secure texting, alarm management and clinical support software providers.
