Why Choose a touchscreen for the Medical Industry? 5 Key Factors You Need to Know

In medical devices, touch screens are not only the core interface for human-machine interaction, but they are also crucial for improving diagnostic efficiency and ensuring safety. Unlike consumer-grade devices, medical environments demand higher stability, accuracy, and adaptability from touchscreen products. Here are five key factors that the medical industry must consider when selecting a touchscreen:

1. Compliance with Medical Standards to Ensure Long-term System Stability
   Medical devices often operate 24/7, so system stability is a top priority. The selected touch screen must undergo rigorous testing and meet relevant certifications for the medical electronics industry (e.g., CE, FCC, EN60601), ensuring that it runs reliably for extended periods and supports seamless medical processes.

2. Optimal Display and Touch Performance for Accurate Medical Imaging

   • Display Performance: High brightness, high contrast, and a wide color gamut are essential for clear visibility of medical images under complex lighting conditions, ensuring accurate reproduction of details like ultrasound, imaging, and monitoring data.

   • Touch Performance: The screen should offer high sensitivity, quick response times, and multi-touch capabilities, enhancing operational efficiency and enabling doctors to quickly execute various commands.

3. Anti-Glare Technology to Improve Operational Comfort
   Environments like operating rooms and ICUs often have strong lights or equipment lamps that can cause reflections on the screen, interfering with observation and operation. Using anti-glare (AG) surface treatment technology can effectively reduce glare, protect the healthcare professional's vision, and improve touch accuracy.

4. Glove-Compatible Operation to Meet Clinical Needs
   Healthcare professionals often wear medical gloves during procedures, and regular touch screens may not recognize input through gloves. Medical-grade touchscreens must support operation with dry gloves or gloves made of various materials, ensuring smooth functionality in sterile environments while maintaining both safety and efficiency.

5. Strong Environmental Adaptability to Handle Complex Medical Scenarios
   Medical environments are often densely packed with equipment, subject to frequent electromagnetic interference, and need to withstand extreme conditions such as vehicle-mounted, mobile, and low-temperature settings. High-quality touch screens should offer excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) resistance, support a wide operating temperature range of -20℃ to +70℃, and be durable enough to handle minor vibrations and shocks without performance issues.
