When thinking of digital transformation in healthcare, many think of a doctor’s expanding toolbox, a game-changing new drug or perhaps some incredible new surgical instrument. Others might think of apps, noticing the recent tripling of the number of medical apps available. However, when it comes to the “street-level” of how healthcare professionals do their job, and most importantly how they deliver top-quality care to their patients, the digitization within the healthcare vertical is definitely worth exploring with one of the primary focuses in this staged process being the diagnosis. This first step starts with the diagnostic tools on the clinical level where accuracy is key.
The answer to the question of why digital medical displays are so important has multiple parts, including but not limited to:
- Reliable storage, fast retrieval — Healthcare establishments are moving away from the analog world of paper records and reports in favour of the cloud. This gives both medical practitioners and their patients the assurance that records and other vital pieces of information are secure and accessible 24/7 from anywhere.
- Security plus — In a world where safety and security are critical, digital medical displays connected to Picture Archiving Communication System- (PACS) and Hospital Information System (HIS)-based patient information management ensure tight security while offering a higher level of work efficiency.
- Location independence — The new breed of cloud-connected digital medical displays not only empower mobile medical practitioners (ie. paramedics at the site of an injury or in-ambulance taking a patient to hospital) but also give healthcare professionals access to records and reports from their homes or offices by using a mobile device.
