Information about Cart Computer
Mobile, full size computers — cart computers — allow high mobility for a full size computer, tablet PC or laptop. The computer, driven by a rechargeable battery, is pushed around on a cart to where it is needed.
One of the largest uses of a computer cart or "computer on wheels" is within healthcare, where patient information can be taken to the point of care or bedside. The mobile computer cart becomes the means to all patient information in realtime. Critical decisions can be made based on complete information that is available in real time. Medication errors are reduced, redundancies are eliminated, and hospital or healthcare processes and workflow are significantly improved.
