Plano-based Medhost recently introduced Medhost Axon, an iPad app that enables physicians and nurses to access patient information, and provide clinicians ordering capabilities, one of the most important activities when caring for patients.
Axon was developed as part of Medhost’s clinician-focused mobile strategy, centered on helping emergency room clinicians streamline their daily workflows by enabling mobile interaction.
“Medhost Axon frees clinicians to have portable and simplified access to patient information, results and order entry, and it’s especially helpful in the ED where room space is limited,” said Medhost president Craig Herrod. “Many clinical systems force physicians to lose face-to-face interactions as data input drives them to look at the screen instead of the patient, but with Medhost Axon, a few swipes and taps gives physicians a wealth of information.”
Axon was initially developed for Apple iOS, but the platform will now be available for any mobile device using HTML5.

“Each of us is accustomed to relying on powerful handheld devices that streamline our work and make our lives easier,” Herrod said. “Medhost is leading the charge to bring the same value of mobility to emergency medicine where clinicians need anywhere, anytime access to information the most.”
