Motorola 2D
Imager Automates Ops, Improves Patient Care
|
The
Enterprise Mobility Solutions division of Motorola announced its newest
advanced data capture solution for healthcare -- the DS6878-HCcordless 2D imager. The
DS6878-HC imager extends the access of critical information to the patient's
bedside, the nurse's station, operating room and beyond with the highest levels
of reliability and performance. Specifically designed to withstand the rigors of
everyday use in demanding healthcare environments, the DS6878-HC helps to
prevent medical errors, improve patient safety and increase caregiver
productivity by providing real-time and convenient access to information.
"Mobility is critical to healthcare organizations as they strive to improve
processes, ensure patient safety and overcome challenges associated with
staffing shortages," said Vivian Funkhouser, principal of healthcare solutions,
Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions. "Motorola's DS6878-HC digital imager
delivers on Motorola's commitment to improving healthcare operations with a
high-performance data capture solution ideal for a multitude of healthcare
operations -- from medication administration to specimen collection, admitting
to asset tracking and dietary management."
The DS6878-HC redefines imaging technology and allows healthcare personnel to
scan documents such as drivers' licenses and insurance cards for identification,
as well as facial images, to quickly and efficiently create and maintain
electronic medical records (EMRs). Motorola's new cordless imager enables
hospitals to automate operations, improve data accuracy, increase productivity
and streamline operational efficiencies in patient rooms, admitting,
laboratories and pharmacies. Easy-to-use, intuitive and ergonomically designed
for user comfort, the DS6878-HC helps caregivers focus on their top priority --
the patient.
The new DS6878-HC is designed to reduce the spread of germs and protect patients
and caregivers against dangerous and deadly illnesses. IP43 sealing, in
combination with a specially designed plastic housing, creates a
disinfectant-ready design that allows safe wipe-downs and sanitizing with
bleach, alcohol, soap and water -- without harming the housing or the sensitive
scanning components. And with its ability to withstand six-foot drops to
concrete, the new digital imager provides dependable operations despite
inevitable drops in various healthcare environments.
With its unmatched combination of features and functionality, Motorola's newest
digital imaging solution meets the unique requirements of demanding healthcare
facilities with the ability to capture 1D or 2D barcodes, as well as signatures,
documents, still photographs and video. Offering a single device to streamline
processes throughout the healthcare environment, the DS6878-HC cordless digital
imager is built on Motorola's scan engine to help guarantee superior performance
in fast-paced environments. With its intuitive aiming pattern, the DS6878-HC
provides laser-like performance and can capture even the most poorly printed or
damaged barcodes with ease. And with omni-directional scanning, it eliminates
the need to precisely align bar code and imager for ultimate convenience and
productivity for the user while minimizing disruption to resting patients.
The DS6878-HC will also be protected from the unexpected with built-in
Comprehensive Coverage, which includes normal wear and tear, as well as coverage
for internal and external components damaged through accidental breakage.
Unforeseen repair expenses are significantly reduced, providing service peace of
mind from the date of purchase. Additionally, technical software support helps
to keep the DS6878-HC running at optimal efficiency -- and medical staff
connected to their critical business systems

Google Makes Biz Apps Marketplace Official
|
Google, with its announcement of the Apps Marketplace last night, is on the
verge of entering mobile application middleware territory.
Gartner analyst Bill Clark, in a recent report, said he expects Google to
become more important to mobile application developers. That prediction was
correct, as the company known for its search engine is now promising more
developer-centric news to come this spring.
"We're often asked when we'll offer a wider variety of business applications --
from accounting and project management to travel planning and human resources
management. But we certainly can't and won't do it all, and there are hundreds
of business applications for which we have no particular expertise," Apps
Marketplace product manager Chris Vander May blogged last night.
"Today, we're making it easier for these users and software providers to do
business in the cloud with a new online store for integrated business
applications. The Google Apps Marketplace allows Google Apps customers to easily
discover, deploy and manage cloud applications that integrate with Google Apps.
More than 50 companies are now selling applications across a range of
businesses," he wrote.
Google is highlighting applications from Intuit (payroll), JIRA Studio
(development environment), Manymoon (project management), and Professional
Services Connect (data collaboration), while several other companies made their
own announcements.
"Once installed to a company's domain, these third-party applications work like
native Google applications. With administrator approval, they may interact with
calendar, email, document and/or contact data to increase productivity.
Administrators can manage the applications from the familiar Google Apps control
panel, and employees can open them from within Google Apps. With OpenID
integration, Google Apps users can access the other applications without signing
in separately to each," Vander May stated.
The full list of application partners is posted on Google's code blog and
additional technical details are on the Google Enterprise blog. Additional
details will be disclosed at the Google I/O conference May 19-20 in San
Francisco, he wrote.
