Posted on

Avalue Technology Inc. has launched the 13-inch HID-1337 medical-grade portable touchscreen panel PC which complies with the UL 60601-1 safety benchmark for medical electrical equipment. With flexible utilization of medical data and images, HID-1337 enables real-time sharing of medical information and collaborative work, making it the ideal platform for smart integration of medical information.

In light of accelerated development of telemedicine and PoC (point-of-care) diagnostics since the outbreak of COVID-19, and the added urgency of an imminent super-aged world, healthcare systems must make the change from episodic care to providing preventive and long-term care. Such pressing need for advanced medical solutions is continuously reflected in the medical panel PC market, which is booming as a result of rapid advancement in medical device technologies and growing demand for healthcare.

The use of medical touchscreen panel PCs is not without challenges – stringent standards and regulations in the medical field, big data generated in the healthcare industry due to widespread application of AI and machine learning and interoperability of medical imaging data, and the need to meet user-specific requirements for security, privacy and reliability.

Avalue’s HID-1337 is built with 12th/13th-Gen Intel® Core™ (Raptor Lake PS / Alder Lake PS) processor and Intel® Iris® Xe graphics, providing unparalleled performance and energy efficiency, and real-time integration of information, streaming medical data and images. Compliant with the UL 60601-1 medical standard, the Avalue HID-1337 ensures that medical procedures are carried out safely. The HID-1337’s front panel is IP65 dustproof and waterproof, antibacterial coating prevents the transmission of bacteria, and the full-flat panel is easy to clean even with ordinary sterilizers or detergents, making it suitable for monitoring patient status in the operating room or intensive care unit.

At the healthcare personnel and patient level, safety, convenience and user experience are equally important. Integrating patient monitoring solution, Avalue HID-1337 has built-in TPM and RFID to ensure only authorized users can log in to the system, assisting system access, and providing security of data and control system.

With a flexible and user-friendly operating interface, its PCAP multi-touch screen can be operated with medical gloves. Compliant with IEC-60601-1-8 requirements for alarm systems in medical electrical equipment, it features a three-colour light indicator to quickly alert healthcare personnel to critical warnings. The 5W speaker provides clearer audio alarms, and 2.5GbE gigabit Ethernet provides faster and more reliable network connection. The HID-1337 can be connected to multiple pieces of healthcare monitoring equipment through USB 3.1 type C, providing real-time analysis and diagnosis with patient data, such as vital signs and blood oxygen saturation.

Avalue 13-inch HID-1337 is easy to install and highly mobile, making it suitable for hospitals, ambulances or healthcare sites with limited resources. The compact and lightweight HID-1337 makes it easier to retrieve health records and medical charts in a space-constrained ward or medical shelving trolley. It performs remarkably well in medical data management and monitoring, high-resolution medical image handling and alarm functionality, making it ideal for applications such as medical training or simulation and critical life monitoring systems.
