The ergonomics that have been incorporated within the OR COMPUTER makes it perfectly suited for use in an operating room environment. The 15" monitor has a fully integrated user interface combining a resistive touch screen capability with a virtual keyboard. The automated charting tool enables the medical practitioner to focus attention on the patient while data is being collected. Dual ports enable heart-lung information to be monitored while at the same time connecting the unit into the hospital network. A DVD-RW/CD writer, incorporated into the unit, allows for the easy transfer of data to and from the OR COMPUTER.
