LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)May 19, 2022
MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global health and medical technology market, today announced that Zebra Technologies’ TC52ax-HC mobile computer has been recognized as winner of the “Best Overall mHealth Hardware Solution” award in the sixth annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program.This is the fifth consecutive year Zebra has been awarded a MedTech Breakthrough Award.
Building on the success of the TC52-HC mobile computer, the TC52ax-HC helps caregivers improve the quality of care and the overall patient experience. The TC52ax-HC mobile computer features Wi-Fi 6 and double the memory capacity, helping improve application responsiveness and maintain signal reliability for PBX calls and push-to-talk communications as more wirelessly connected technologies come online. Additionally, the TC52ax-HC offers a red alert button, which allows nurses to instantly and discreetly call for help, even in a duress situation.
“We are honored to win our fifth consecutive MedTech Breakthrough Award for our TC52ax-HC mobile computer, which was developed with nurses and clinicians in mind because they know best how things should work on the front lines,” said Xavier Villarreal, Vice President of North American Healthcare and Government Sales, Zebra Technologies. “Zebra’s full suite of healthcare solutions facilitate better care collaboration, improved communications and optimized workflow efficiencies throughout the patient journey.”
Designed with advanced healthcare-grade, disinfectant-ready blue plastics that can tolerate frequent cleaning and disinfecting, the TC52ax-HC mobile computer was purpose-built for the healthcare industry. The TC52ax-HC makes it easy to scan patients’ wristbands, IV bags, medications and more allowing clinicians and non-clinical staff to quickly document, review, confirm and share information. With the press of the scan button, a barcode is targeted with white LED illumination and a green aimer to make it easier for reading color-coded specimen trays and biopsy cassettes.
“Some of the industry’s most pressing challenges are the need for high-performance mobile computers designed for clinical use and patient care and the ability to clean and disinfect devices to prevent the spread of infections,” said James Johnson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “This new device from Zebra Technologies builds on the existing TC52-HC healthcare mobile computer and helps address these challenges. The TC52ax-HC represents the ultimate purpose-built enterprise solution for healthcare organizations looking to improve the operational efficiency of their clinical workers while delivering better round-the-clock patient care with greater accuracy. Congratulations to the Zebra team for a well-deserved award win for our ‘Best Overall mHealth Hardware Solution’ designation.’”
