4. Adoption of health information
technology (HIT) can improve
quality and patient safety.
Rapid growth of EMR/EHR solutions
in the ED, increase safety and
reduce LOS
Only about a quarter of primary
care doctors in the U.S. (28%) and
Canada (23%) use EMRs
Compared with a large majority of
primary care doctors in the
Netherlands, (98%), New Zealand
(92%), the U.K. (89%) and Australia
(79%).

5. PCP’s Ability to offer care to patients other than
during working hours, which can prevent
unnecessary emergency room visits.
Just 40% of U.S. primary care doctors report they are
able to offer such access; in the Netherlands the rate is
95%, and in the U.K. it is 87%.
Access to resources for managing complex chronic
conditions at a time when more and more patients
are suffering from these conditions.
Use of multi-disciplinary teams varied widely, from a
high of 81% in the U.K to lows of 29% to 32% in the U.S.,
Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

6. Health Information Technology (HIT) involves
more than just the EMR solution. Handheld
PDA devices are a remarkable bedside
partner to the complete EMR solution.

7. Since the “Apple Newton” came to market
in 1993. the market continues to grow with
“Smart Phones” and “Integrated
PDA/Phones.
Common growth of use for PDA style
devices is 25% increase each fiscal
quarter in 2008
Growth markets where once personal data
management however modern devices can
access external data and voice networks as
well as the Internet through a wireless
connection dramatically changing the
market segment and healthcare potential.
8. Minimize risk and error in patient care
Faster and safer dose management
Patient/medication confirmation (5
rights etc)
Brigham and Women's Hospital, reports:
50% of physicians using a PDA drug
reference guide avoided one or more
serious adverse drug events per week.1
A survey of nurses indicated that
immediate access to drug references was
the most important use of a PDA in
nursing.2

2. 2003 study conducted by PDA Cortex on the “PDA Nurses listsev hosted by PDA Cortext
9. Administration errors account for
38% of medication errors. (1)
Only 2% of drug administration
errors are intercepted. (1)
Medication errors occur in nearly
1 of every 5 doses given to
patients in the typical hospital. (2)

10. The
median compensation award for
medication errors was $668,000 per
award in 2000. (1)
Through integrated Positive Patient
ID (PPID) and PDA “style” reference
tools we can immediately reduce
patient care error.

Arch Intern Med 2002;162:1897-1903.
13. • Most common
Clinical Uses
• Vast array of patient
care references and
other “nurses tools”
• Immediate access to
hospital process and,
procedure manuals
14. Patient education resource
Providing references to prepare
the nurse
Providing anatomic visual aids
Bedside real time education
Interpretation opportunities
Through phone features
Through dictionaries that can
speak for you
15. • Requirement in
some nursing
schools
• Some medical
facilities are
offering payback
and/or support
programs
16. CEU/CME
Stand alone applications
Web applications
Clinical Tips and Primers
Clinical charting solutions
Internal Communications
Phones integrated into the PDA
Text message alert for entire
hospital networks (replacing
paging)
17. Immediate patient care
data retrieval, and
charting
While still a relatively
immature market
segment, PDAs can (and
should) be part of the
documentation process.
Significant cost savings
and manpower hours
could result from
technologies that
expedite the
documentation process

18. PDAsare known for scheduling but
what else?
Schedule
Tasks
Contacts
The“GTD” (Getting Things Done)
movement as brought all sorts of
“back up brain” additions. For
example:
Bug Me
EverNote (PC & PDA)
SugarSync (PC and PDA Web)
19. Whatto take into consideration for personal
and professional use
Needs – What are you going to do with it
Operating System
Size and Weight
Price and Budget
Systems integration use
(more detailed)
20. Consider needs and growth
Always get a unit with expandable memory
Consider your technology comfort and
support
Consider integration concerns
Do you want phone and email with it or just a
simple reference tool?
21. Palm operating system (not device)
Simple easy set-up and interface
Loosing market share rapidly
Still lots of software on the market
Products price point starts around $100
Price plans for phone models vary
Some are stand-alone some integrated with phone
Email integration is limited with “office” email
solutions
Check out: www.palm.com or your cell provider
22. Windows (and Smart phone)
“Hey it’s Windows”
Large and growing market share
Products start at around $300
Price plans for phone models vary – Phone units are
cheaper due to cellular plans
Typically integrated with phones
Email integration is seamless with office email
solutions (hey it’s Microsoft)
Be sure you focus on the “type” of device and
versions
Check out www.dell.com, www.hp.com, or your
cell provider
23. Blackberry
a.k.a “Crackberry”
Always integrated as a phone/email device
Rapid growth marketing but still limited medical
product line
“Sleek” product integrations… more the
corporate tool
Email is sweet!
Prices vary depending on cell provider
24. iPhone
Very new tool on the market
Very limited application choices for
clinical use
Recent change in Apple business to
“open” the technology may
dramatically change availability of
applications
Cost varies around $400 or more
25. Consider “Broad User” site
licensing options for merged
Intranet and PDA access
Micromedex
Offers Intranet and limited PDA
Integration
Pepid
Offers comprehensive Intranet,
PDA and even Wireless secure
network options
Offers clinical specialty content
areas
26. • Full Integration with
an EMR/HER
• Care Fusion (now a
Cardinal Company) for
patient and care
identification
• Cerner Mobile
• Reality is the
“interface” for the
device might be the
only limiting factor
27. Hybrid Device – The “Mr Coffee of PDAs”?
Integrated Reference, Charting device, Patient
safety tool and in hospital voice phone (e.g.
SpectraLink®, Vocera®)
