Zebra Technologies (ZBRA) announced that University Health in Kansas City has deployed Zebra healthcare mobile computers and printers to replace desk-bound workflows, cutting provider callback wait times from about 45 minutes to a few seconds.
Over 90% of frontline inpatient staff now carry Zebra devices that consolidate communication, documentation, specimen collection, and medication administration at the bedside. TC5 and HC2X/HC5X mobile computers and ZQ600 Plus printers integrate securely with the hospital’s electronic health record system, routing real-time alerts directly to caregivers. Bedside barcode scanning supports medication verification rates consistently above 90%, neonatal wristband–to–breast milk matching, and on-device wound photography with timestamped uploads that help reduce hospital-acquired pressure injuries. Zebra highlights this deployment as an example of its Orchestrated Care framework and notes that devices are protected with hardware-backed encryption and LifeGuard for Android security updates.
