Detroit doctors get Tungsten C

Detroit Medical Center and Wayne State University Department of Emergency Medicine recently purchased 150 Palm handhelds for emergency room attending physicians and residents, Palm announced. Traditionally, emergency rooms are stocked with bookshelves full of heavy reference books for physicians to review. The Palm Tungsten C handheld, with integrated 802.11b (also known as Wi-Fi), provides these physicians with ready access, over the hospitals’ Wi-Fi network, to not only medical reference information, but also, patient records, lab results, departmental memos and email.
