Medical Grade All-In-One Computers For Doctors

Doctors wear many hats during a shift. They may start the day by visiting with patients for routine visits, and end it with handling an emergency. Days in the hospital are uncertain to say the least. Doctors need dependable equipment that can adapt to any situation that they may find themselves in. Medical grade, all-in-one computers can help doctors in virtually every situation. Doctors can feel confident and comfortable with their equipment when they have an all-in-one computer by their side.

All-In-One Computer: Clean And Sanitary

This pandemic has shown just how important hospital safety is. While hospitals have always been cautious about the risk of nosocomial infections, the pandemic offered many new challenges. Face masks, social distancing, and increased hygiene helped reduce the spread of the virus in hospitals. Regular cleaning with disinfectants played no small role, helping to ensure a sanitary environment was present.

But what about devices that staff were unable to sanitize? Some all-in-one computers cannot handle being regularly sanitized. This poses a serious risk to your hospital when considering that computer keyboards are up to 20,000 times more dirty than toilet seats. However, not all all-in-one computers are built equally.

All-in-one computers like the E24B from Tangent feature an IP rated, fully washable touchscreen. Not only does this washable touchscreen eliminate the need for a keyboard, but it also can help reduce the risk of disease spread. Staff can clean the screen with traditional detergents regularly. 

All of Tangent’s medical grade all-in-one computers also come equipped with an antimicrobial coating. This coating mitigates the growth of bacteria on the surfaces of the computer, further increasing the safety in your hospital.

Better Communications Throughout The Hospital

Doctors need to be available at all times for urgent matters in the hospital. That’s why they carry pagers and beepers. But these devices can only send a limited amount of information to a doctor, telling them what’s happening and where to go but not giving specific details. 

When doctors are responding to an emergency, they need all the information they can get. That’s where all-in-one computers like the T13 come in. The T13 from Tangent is a versatile all-in-one computer that can be carried by your doctors while they make their rounds. In the event of an emergency, doctors can use their pager to get the gist of what’s going on. They can then use their T13 all-in-one computer while on the move, looking at a patient’s medical history and prescriptions.

Antimicrobial All-In-One Medical Computers

While vaccination programs are underway throughout the United States, multiple areas are seeing a worrying rise in both cases and hospitalizations. States along the East coast are struggling to further lower their curves, as case numbers remain stagnant. Hospitals around the country need to remain vigilant in their fight against the pandemic. One of the easiest ways to keep medical professionals safe during these times is to equip them with antimicrobial medical grade computers.

Antimicrobial Medical Computers

As this pandemic has shown, infections can easily spread in the hospital. Masks, gloves, and regular safety precautions can go a long way in helping to prevent the spread of illness. But antimicrobial medical computers add an extra layer of protection to your hospitals.

Toss the Mouse and Keyboard, the Future is Touchscreen

Toss the Mouse and Keyboard, the Future is Touchscreen

We are truly living in the age of touchscreen technology. According to eMarketer, 2.4 billion people were using smartphones worldwide in 2017, and 1.2 billion people were using tablet devices. The adoption figures are projected to increase even more over the coming years. An entire generation of children have now grown up using touchscreen tablets and telephones. So considering that most of the world is comfortable with touchscreen computing, it makes perfect sense that touchscreen panel PCs are gaining a lot of traction in businesses.

 

For a very long time, keyboards and mouse devices were cumbersome requisite peripherals to the computing experience. The roller balls in computer mice were like magnets for dust and lint and that would foul up the device very quickly. Optical and wireless mice were an an improvement, but contaminants could still block the sensors and running out of battery was a major inconvenience to one’s work day. The amount of gross things a keyboard can collect over its lifetime is a whole topic on its own. And at the end of the day, if either device failed, one had to pray that they had a backup on hand lest they lose valuable work time.

 

An industrial grade panel PC with a touchscreen that is built to work with gloved hands is perfect for medical settings where contamination or infection control is a critical factor for health and compliance. The Vita KW series of panel PCs from Tangent offers a wide range of sizes from
15 inches to 24 inches and many mounting options to suit a variety of uses, for example, a patient information kiosk, a medical cart panel PC, an in-room computer, a medical records and billing panel PC, and so much more. For medical computers that don’t require the use of gloves, but do need to be kept clean, the KW series panel PC can be sprayed and wiped with disinfectants without any threat of harming the panel PC or worry that it won’t be completely cleaned. The  KW series panel PCs are rated at an IP65, meaning that they highly protected against dust and water ingress. That cannot be said of keyboards or mice for the most part. Unless a waterproof mouse and keyboard are used (which are also offered by Tangent), there’s a good chance that contaminants are lurking in the cracks and crevices of the device.

 

For harsher environments that are even tougher on a panel PC like industrial meat packing plants, food production facilities, and any other enterprise requiring high levels of sanitation and hygiene, the Tangent S Series panel PC is best suited to the job due to it’s IP69K rated, fully waterproof enclosure. The S series touchscreen panel PC can be sprayed with hot, high pressure jets and endure stringent wash downs without any damage to the unit. The S series is also offered in a variety of panel sizes and mounting options. Workers can used gloved or ungloved hands on the touchscreen equally well to conduct their business. It’s quite remarkable how a touchscreen panel can be both sensitive and very durable at the same time. This is the level of ingenuity and quality that Tangent offers.
