High-Performance Barcode Scanning Using Mobile Device Cameras
Code CortexDecoder® is enterprise-grade barcode decoding software that enables smartphones, tablets and other camera-equipped devices to scan barcodes without requiring a separate handheld scanner.
Designed for fast, accurate and secure data capture, CortexDecoder can be integrated into healthcare applications, Electronic Patient Record (EPR) systems and other business software. It supports more than 40 1D and 2D barcode symbologies and can accurately decode small, curved, reflective, damaged or poorly printed barcodes.
Key Benefits
- Reliable barcode capture: Near-zero-miss scanning helps users capture barcodes quickly and accurately.
- Designed for challenging barcodes: Reads small, curved, reflective, faded, damaged and distorted barcodes.
- More than 40 symbologies: Supports a broad range of commonly used 1D and 2D barcode formats.
- Mobile device scanning: Uses the built-in camera on compatible smartphones and tablets.
- Flexible integration: Can be embedded into clinical, enterprise and purpose-built applications across a wide range of operating systems.
- Online or offline licensing: Flexible licensing options support connected and restricted environments.
- Fast decoding performance: Code reports read rates of up to six times faster than competing solutions, including when barcodes are damaged or distorted.
Secure Data Capture
CortexDecoder performs barcode decoding within the application and passes the decoded information directly to the parent system.
Offline licensing is available for organisations that need to restrict internet connectivity or keep scanning data within their local environment. In offline mode, CortexDecoder does not transfer scanned information to an external source, helping organisations maintain control over sensitive data.
CortexDecoder for Epic Rover
For NHS organisations using Epic as their EPR or EHR platform, Epic Rover provides clinicians with mobile access to patient information at the point of care.
CortexDecoder for Epic Rover allows healthcare staff to use the camera on a compatible mobile device to scan:
- Patient identification wristbands
- Medication packaging
- Laboratory specimens
- Blood products
- Medical devices and consumables
- Other clinical barcodes
This removes the need for clinicians to carry a separate barcode scanner and allows barcode data to be captured directly within the Epic Rover workflow. CortexDecoder also supports integration with other major healthcare platforms, including Oracle Health Cerner and MEDITECH.
Supporting Safer Healthcare Workflows
Fast and dependable barcode scanning can support a wide range of clinical processes, including:
- Positive patient identification
- Bedside medication administration
- Specimen collection and tracking
- Blood product verification
- Pharmacy workflows
- Medical device identification
- Inventory and consumable management
By improving barcode readability and allowing scanning through familiar mobile devices, CortexDecoder helps healthcare teams capture the correct information at the point of care.
