Mobile Clinical Assistant (MCA) Device | Panasonic Tablet PC

Based on the Intel® mobile clinical assistant reference platform, the new CF-H1 MCA is designed specifically for clinicians.

The Panasonic CF-H1 healthc are tablet PC is a lightweight, water-resistant, shock and drop-tolerant and easily disinfected mobile computing device that meets the highest demands for mobility and networking within clinical environments.

It allows doctors and nursing staff to benefit from instant access to medical records at the point of care, accurate documentation on patient conditions and medication, and enables greater efficiency of clinical processes.

Designed for the Healthcare Industry

The Panasonic CF-H1 tablet PC has also been designed for easy disinfection, reducing the risk of infections being spread from patient to patient. The first MCA to offer a fanless design – limiting the opportunity for germs to be transported by the device –features a smooth surface with sealed buttons, a gapless LCD screen and no exposed ports.

Panasonic developed a special exterior case material which can withstand frequent alcohol wipes. To further aid in disinfection, a Panasonic-designed software utility can be programmed to remind users to wipe the unit down at defined intervals and automatically records a successful cleaning for the hospital’s permanent records.

The rugged Panasonic CF-H1 tablet PC is capable of withstanding 90 cm drops, similar to the height of a patient’s bed, while operational, plus additional working conditions such as vibration, humidity, altitude, temperature extremes and thermal shock.

The sealed unit is IP54 compliant for water-, rain- and dust-resistance and can easily handle being repeatedly sprayed and wiped with disinfectant.

Reduction in Workplace Errors

The Panasonic Toughbook CF-H1 healthcare tablet PC also can help to reduce medication administration errors while helping nurses and physicians to deliver faster and safer care. With an integrated RFID reader, 2.0 megapixel auto-focus camera with dual LED lights, a barcode reader, contactless smart card reader and fingerprint readers for user authentication, the new Panasonic CF-H1 tablet PC is a secure and intuitive platform for barcode medication administration (BCMA), vitals capture and electronic medical records (EMR) capture and review – all at the point of care.

To meet the needs for mobility within many healthcare organizations, the Panasonic CF-H1 healthcare tablet PC offers a range of embedded wireless options including 802.11a/b/g/ draft-n and Bluetooth® 2.0. The device can also be equipped with Qualcomm’s new Gobi™ technology, offering up to 7.2 Mbps mobile data links and simplifying complex multi-carrier wireless deployments for IT departments.

The Panasonic CF-H1 tablet PC also comes with optional, GPS technology allowing for location awareness with improved accuracy, faster satellite acquisition time and lower power consumption.
