Fast and Easy Documentation at German Children’s
Hospital with StyleView 42 Medical Carts
HAMBURG, GERMANY

The Catholic Children’s Hospital
Wilhelmstift, part of the Ansgar Group,is the largest children’s hospital inHamburg with 11 specialty departments
and 23 medical disciplines under one
roof. To support their digital adoption
goals, they needed easy-to-use
medical carts for patient documentation.

Since the workstations had to be
used throughout the hospital, simply
upgrading to permanent computer
workstations was not the right solution.
The Catholic Children’s Hospital
Wilhelmstift needed a mobile medical
cart that was compatible with their
existing EHR system and standard thinclient and could accommodate paper
or a note pad.

“A drawer with a combination lock allows our employees to take files with them and store themin compliance with the GDPR rules.”— Mark Brede, head of the IT department

The team valued how the cart is easy
to move, can be adapted to the heightof each user, and works both standing
and sitting.

“The SV42 Medical Cart is quick
to understand, easy to handle
and just great to use.”— Bettina Stöterau,
Digitization Office“This is especially important for thenurses, doctors and other users, sothey don’t have to adapt to a newapplication,” said Bettina Stöterau,
Digitalization Office, Catholic Children’s
Hospital Wilhelmstift. “New equipment
is easier to use when the applicationis the same, whether they’re using
a fixed desk or mobile cart.”“The SV42 Medical Cart is quick tounderstand, easy to handle and justgreat to use,” Stöterau said. “With thehelp of this cart, everyone can also
work in a way that helps prevent backpain, neck pain and other physicalimpairments.”
In addition, both right- and left-handusers can work comfortably with themouse pad that can be moved to eitherside of the keyboard. The cart can also
be retrofitted with more drawers totransport supplies and care material.

For about six months, hospital staff
tested various solutions before
deciding on Ergotron’s StyleView 42
Medical Cart.
“The thin client can be stowed neatly
in the storage compartment, and it’smobile so anyone who has to complete
patient documentation can use it,” saidMark Brede, head of the IT department.
