The COVID-19 pandemic changed how clinicians and nurses care for patients. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the mobile tools designed to streamline workflow processes for frontline workers. For instance, using a tablet device to access an electronic health record at the bedside saved time on administrative tasks for nurses, allowing for increased patient care, according to a 2022 study.
But healthcare workers need mobile devices built with them in mind, which means integrated and secure access to necessary applications, reliable connectivity, and useability. Devices should also be easy to clean and withstand repeated drops and vibrations.
As a registered nurse, these concepts were front of mind for me when testing the DT Research 313MD Rugged 2-in-1 medical tablet. The high-definition, 13-inch touch screen displays vivid images — ideal for viewing X-rays, CT scans or MRIs. And its powerful processor makes patient data capture quick and accurate for healthcare workers.
