The system, which is distributed through Devlin Electronics, can be wiped down for infection control without fear of damaging the unit and instead of featuring a fan, is fitted with a heat pipe system. Fans would ingest dirt and bacteria only to circulate it in other areas. Other new features include the use of anti-microbial plastic, which is used on the exterior of the machine.
The new IPIX is also available with either Microsoft Vista Business or XP Professional. Wireless connectivity options allow users to connect to the hospital network from anywhere. IPIX features an internal lithium ion battery, which can give a runtime of up to 45mins in the event of mains power failure.
Devlin has also begun to incorporate the new IPIX all-in-one PC and LCD screen into their D-Cart. The D-Cart is a mobile computing cart with a powerful battery pack allowing extended use around hospitals and can be used to provide clinicians’ patient information at the point-of-care.
