Ewins Participates in MEDICAL FAIR ASIA 2014 – Enabling Caregivers
Ewins Pte Ltd announces its participation in the 10th edition of MEDICAL FAIR ASIA 2014 – Asia’s leading and most established trade fair for equipment and supplies for the hospital, diagnostic, pharmaceutical, medical and rehabilitation sectors.
With its experience as a purveyor of furniture components, building materials and security solutions since 1967, Ewins puts together a selection of innovative brands and products to be showcased at the fair with the aim of improving the work environment of healthcare professionals by way of ergonomics and accountability:
- Modernsolid (Taiwan) – Ergonomic monitor and equipment mounting solutions;
- BREATHAIR (Japan) – Patented mattress infill with unrivalled breathability;
- iKLAS (Singapore) – Key management system to track key-usage rights;
- Cyberlock (USA) – Innovative lock system that converts mechanical locks into an access control system.
Modernsolid
Modernsolid, an ISO9001 approved manufacturer from Taiwan, supplies a wide range of ergonomic and space-saving mounting solutions that help improve flexibility and efficiency in healthcare environments. Products include point-of-care workstations and mobile computing carts that are designed to provide easy adjustment for patients and caregivers; and monitor arms that are height adjustable to accommodate users’ work postures – be it sitting or standing. Modernsolid’s range of products made specifically for the healthcare industry are easy to clean so high standards of hygiene can be maintained; and are also flexible in integrating with other medical equipment. These product benefits enable caregivers to provide better patient care through an ergonomically friendly working environment.
BREATHAIR
BREATHAIR, a patented mattress infill from Japan, comes with several product features that make it perfect for use in the healthcare industry.
The concept behind BREATHAIR involves continuous filament of PELPRENE – a polyester-based thermoplastic – in a three-dimensional loop structure resulting in a superior cushion material. With its exceptional breathability and excellent body pressure distribution, it helps to prevent bedsores in bedridden patients. Additionally, being an extremely lightweight material with high water repellency, caregivers can effortlessly carry and clean hospital mattresses regularly. Such routine cleaning not only contributes to making the hospital environment more hygienic, it also results in less frequent mattress replacements. Its high compression recovery with little sagging due to the material’s structure further contributes to the durability of this mattress infill.
Enabling caregivers through accountability
On a daily basis, healthcare professionals and caregivers are expected to access important equipment, controlled drugs and confidential patient medical records. iKLAS and Cyberlock can easily improve accountability and security of the use and storage of these items by means of centrally controlled user permissions and audit trails.
iKLAS
iKLAS (Intelligent Key Lock Application System) is a web-based key management system from Singapore that helps to control and track the use and movement of keys to restricted areas within the hospitals and other facilities. The system incorporates advanced technology with a user-friendly interface that can be configured to suit different business needs. Successfully developed and adopted in a wide field of sectors, including government and petrochemical sectors, iKLAS is easy to maintain and built with quality materials to withstand damages due to regular usage.
CyberLock
CyberLock from the USA offers high security electronic locks that bring access control capabilities to locks without the need for wires and complex installations. Access permissions, key-use audit trails, and lost keys can now be conveniently managed from a central location.
CyberLock has been widely used in healthcare facilities to secure access to buildings, facilities, equipment supply rooms and patient records rooms by programming the electronic keys with individual access permissions. These electronic keys are designed with batteries that energise the cylinders to eliminate the high cost of installing and maintaining expensive wirings, making CyberLock easy to install and affordable. Healthcare institutions can now achieve high levels of security and accountability without high investment.
