16 Apr Datalogic Showcased Solutions For Patient Safety At HIMSS 2015
Global leader in Automatic Data Capture and Industrial Automation markets, Datalogic, exhibited data capture solutions that address patient safety at this year’s Healthcare Information and Management Systems Solutions (HIMSS) conference. The conference was held at Chicago’s Mc Cormick Center from April 12-16, 2015. This healthcare IT conference is designed for international healthcare professionals to share ideas, network and work together towards improvements for healthcare systems worldwide.
Datalogic exhibited their Gryphon™ 2D reader product family with corded and cordless options featuring total mobility, real-time feedback and bi-directional communications. The Elf™ PDA with disinfectant-ready enclosures provides mobile computing specifically designed for healthcare settings.
This technology will target one of healthcare’s biggest concerns – patient safety. The use of scanning bar codes eliminates manual data entry and the potential human error that can occur. This creates a safer environment for patients when going into post care.
Bar code technology at the point-of-care helps to assure the proper prescription is administered to the proper patient, supporting to the concept of Patient’s Rights. It also enhances inventory control, asset tracking, lab specimen tracking, data tracking and pharmacy drug verifications.
