Market Insights


Rise in Adoption of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Electronic Health Record (EHR) Systems Drive Medical Computer Cart Market Growth

Electronic health record systems collect, create, and store patients’ data. The adoption of these systems among health care providers has been slow earlier. In the US, the federal government recently passed laws requiring the use of electronic records or files. The electronic record systems help improve the process of clinical documentation, tracking, quality, billing, and coding, along with making the health records portable. The core components of these systems include administrative functions, computer-aided recording of doctor's orders, laboratory systems, radiology systems, pharmacy systems, and clinical documentation systems. HL7 is a standard communication protocol technology that is mostly used in the electronic health record systems. The advantages of an electronic patient record include the gain in healthcare efficiency, and quality and safety along with lower healthcare costs for consumers. These systems simplify patient information management, increase productivity, and reduce costs associated with managing medical information. Moreover, effective information management enables healthcare providers with improved access to information. The EMR systems consider some important human factors, ergonomics, work processes, and environmental conditions. These factors must be considered to improve the quality and cost of patient care, and the safety of staff and patients. Medical staff and doctors spend prolonged time uncomfortably when using keyboards and other input devices. Thus, the use of EMR systems leads to the rise in number of ergonomic injuries among them, especially because of not paying attention to technology, manufacturer design, and training aspects. Such situations need to be addressed through strategies that control and mitigate the risks and conditions.

Further, the EMR systems are gaining popularity among healthcare providers such as hospitals and clinics for storing patient data such as anamnesis, diagnoses, medication, vaccination data, allergies, and laboratory results. As computers may require connections to various movable medical devices such as portable X-ray machines and ECG devices, the computer carts play an essential role in accommodating monitors, CPUs, keyboards, scanners, and other accessories in one place. According to a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association and Medical Care in 2020 that compared metadata from clinicians in the US, Canada, Northern Europe, Western Europe, the Middle East, and Oceania, it was hereby found that the clinicians in the US actively spent a total of 90 minutes using the electronic health record (EHR) compared to non-US clinicians who used to spend about an hour daily on EHR. Therefore, the increasing adoption of EMR and EHR systems by healthcare providers is driving the growth of the medical computer cart market. The mobile computer trolleys have a computer workstation with a laptop and often contains drawers for storing common medical devices. When healthcare professionals collect patient data, they can immediately enter the information into the EHR on-site, providing the patient's doctor an instant access to the data. An ideal mobile medical computer cart can be used as a point of care cart and taken to hospital beds. Flexible mobile computer carts are equipped with height adjustment systems containing the same data management system that every desktop computer uses in the facility. A battery-powered computer cart should be equipped with a long-lasting battery to ensure that it will last several shifts. Hot-swap batteries are a suitable option to keep mobile computers running all day.

Healthcare workers spending less time accessing wall-mounted computers can spend more time providing quality patient care. Easy computer access also accelerates the processes such as doctors’ appointments confirmation and query resolution; as a result, patients feel connected to clinics and are encouraged to get more involved in their own treatment.

Increasing Adoption of Cloud-Based Technologies Contribute Significantly to Medical Computer Cart Market Growth

A significant shift toward paperless data management is encouraging healthcare providers to implement cloud-based technologies in various operations. A reduction in the cost of cloud-based technologies, improvement in flexibility and security, and low maintenance requirements and costs are also driving the introduction of these technologies in health organizations. Cloud-based technologies enable users to overcome interoperability issues while enabling easy data integration. Organizing and storing huge healthcare data volumes on cloud servers makes their processing easier. These technologies streamline the operations of various departments, institutions, healthcare providers, and consumers. In addition, advancements in technology support the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning into patient management, which further assist in the data management. The introduction of cloud-based technologies is bolstering the demand for medical computer carts. These carts are equipped with the local area network (LAN) ports, sockets, and other components required for data communication and transmission. In addition, carts aid in the easy movement of computer systems around the facility. As a result, the increasing adoption of cloud-based data storage is driving the medical computers in healthcare facilities, fueling the global medical computer cart market.

The health data generation, use, storage, and dissemination processes have changed considerably in the recent past. The health industry has come a long way in optimizing its data management practices from conventional storage to digitizing health data. According to the West Monroe Partner report, around 35% of the surveyed health organizations had stored more than 50% of their data or infrastructure in the cloud. Thus, the healthcare sector is far ahead of other sectors in terms of cloud adoption. The widespread adoption of cloud computing in the healthcare sector goes far beyond simply storing data in the cloud architecture. It also helps healthcare providers in increasing efficiencies, streamlining workflows, reducing healthcare costs, and providing personalized care plans to improve outcomes. Switching to the cloud is highly beneficial for both healthcare providers as well as patients. On the business side, cloud computing has proven to reduce operational costs while enabling providers to deliver high-quality, personalized care; moreover, patients receive immediate service. The cloud also increases patient involvement in their own health plans by giving them access to their own health data. Cloud computing has been around in healthcare for years, not as long as is often assumed. As per a recent analysis, the global cloud health sector would grow from US$ 25.5 billion in 2020 to US$ 24 billion in 2021. The CDC's data of the COVID-19 pandemic shows that leveraging the technology for better profits enables the benefits of cloud technology in healthcare.

Several medical computer carts are equipped with advanced touch panel PCs with a slim design that improves mobility, and the touch panels offer scalable computing power. A few products are equipped with Intel Core I processors and have the processing power to run complex electronic health record (EHR) applications wherever they are used. A treatment cart can be filled with several different combinations of drugs. Human error can result in accidentally giving a patient the wrong drug or dosage. These potentially fatal consequences can be avoided by enabling medical touch panel computers with new identification technologies such as radio frequency identification (RFID). The RFID tags consist of a microchip and an antenna enclosed in plastic or silicone. The tags are attached to the drugs so that an RFID scanner can identify them easily and precisely. The scanner needs to be connected to a touch panel computer with cloud-based software to transmit the required information. Manually stocking and managing the contents of each medical cart leads to the wastage of valuable time of healthcare staff. Installing apt software on touch panel PCs to automate inventory management could help administrations with time management.
