Hospitals are under tremendous pressure
to prevent errors while delivering ecient,
high quality care to their patients.
The Intermec SG20 high performance
healthcare scanner features responsive
and reliable performance to help
eliminate errors and improve patient
care. Whether at the admitting desk,
nurses’ station, patient bedside, lab or
pharmacy—the SG20 minimizes the time
and eort to read a bar code, improving
productivity while ensuring important
verification processes are completed.
Innovations in hospital information
management systems and compliance
with government regulations have
improved patient tracking, safety, and
records keeping. Scanners are a vital input
device into these systems but are often
slow, unreliable and not well-suited to the
rigors of hospital environments. The SG20
is built to thrive in the hospital, with the
industry’s fastest omnidirectional 2D bar
code reading technology and more than
50 times the motion tolerance of typical
scanners. This ensures all common 1D
and 2D bar codes are scanned easily and
consistently, at any orientation, without
time-consuming item repositioning
or disturbance to resting patients.
A variety of communication options make
the transition to automatic bar code data
capture fast and easy. Connecting to
your existing infrastructure is easy with
support for USB, RS232, and keyboard
wedge cable interfaces—as well as optional
Bluetooth® wireless connectivity.
Perfectly Matched to Your Needs
When used in a healthcare setting, data
collection devices are often used at the point
of care where infection control is crucial.
The disinfectant-ready housing of the SG20,
when combined with a protocol of frequent
disinfecting, can minimize the spread of
infectious diseases while providing years
of reliable service under these conditions.
Intermec understands that a “one-size-
fits-all” approach to healthcare scanning
can limit user eciency and accuracy, so
the SG20 family includes the option of
either a Bluetooth wireless or tethered
(cabled) scanner. This makes it possible to
standardize on a single scanner family across
your healthcare operation while providing
just the right model for your exact needs.
A variety of matching accessories, such
as scanner stands, enable hands-free
scanning and free up much needed
counter or COW space. Regardless of
the configuration, the entire SG20 line
is priced for aordability and value.
The Intermec SG20 is an aordable, high
performance family of handheld scanners
available in tethered or cordless models.
Designed to the needs of healthcare,
the SG20 helps to ensure that patient
safety standards are consistently met.
