Improve Telehealth for Patients and Providers with Poly

We would not have predicted that the black swan event of COVID-19 would have finally been the catalyst for the explosive growth of telehealth. In the face of these trying circumstances, we will see healthcare organizations expand their use of telehealth in exciting new ways, and our partners at Poly will be well-positioned to spearhead this expanded use of technology with a pair of new telehealth-focused products, the Poly Telehealth Station and the Poly Telehealth Cart.

POLY'S NEW SOLUTIONS FOR TELEHEALTH

The Poly TelehealthStation is an all-in-one healthcare video communication system that isoptimized for use in clinical environments including:

  • A medical-grade 24 touch screen monitor
  • High-definition Eagle Eye IV pan, tilt and 12x optical zoom camera
  • Stereo line-in input with M-Mode wideband audio, for transmitting clinical audio, like sounds from electronic stethoscopes
  • Ability to share content (via HDMI or USB), such as video examination scopes and other clinical imaging devices at up to UHD definition
  • Built-in 360° microphone and speaker
  • Flexible mounting options: either desktop stand or a variety of mounting options

The Poly TelehealthCart pairs the Telehealth Station with a CAPSA Trio Cart to provide a solutionthat can readily move from the bedside to the exam room, to the conferenceroom, to urgent care. The height-adjustable cart will allow for usage withpatients standing, sitting or in a wheelchair. The built-in rechargeablebattery makes sure the cart can operate unplugged for up to eight hours. Thecart has a 20 percent smaller footprint than comparable carts, which makes itmore maneuverable and easier to stow when it is not in use.

HOW POLY'S LINEUP FOR HEALTHCAREIMPROVES THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE

These new telehealthproducts expand Poly's broad lineup of products and services that have applicationsacross the healthcare enterprise. Digital collaboration, enhanced by Poly'sinnovative audio and video, improves the experience for patients, their family,clinical providers and staff. Furthermore, there are several benefitspertaining to productivity and patient experience by incorporatingcollaboration in healthcare in ways that might seem to go beyond atraditional' telehealth application.

For example, remotepatient visitation has emerged as a significant need during the pandemic, asfamily members are not often allowed to visit their loved ones in hospitals,nursing homes or other facilities in which they are isolated. Similarly, COVIDpatients can be remotely observed by clinical staff, reducing the time andexpense of donning and doffing personal protective equipment each time theyenter and exit a patient's room. Poly's solutions enable hybrid clinical officeenvironments that mix both in-person staffing and personnel that are workingfrom home.
