Lexi-Comp, Inc. offers health care providers with constant connectivity to vital point-of-care information using Lexi-Comp ON-HAND for BlackBerry.

Lexi-Comp ON-HAND allows users to access the following databases and software packages from their BlackBerry handset: Lexi-SELECT, Lexi-Drugs, Lexi-Interact, Lexi-NBCA (Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Agent) Exposures, Dental Lexi-Drugs, Lexi-Natural Products, Nursing Lexi-Drugs, Pediatric Lexi-Drugs, Perioperative Nursing Lexi-Drugs, Lexi-Pharmacogenomics, Lexi-Poisoning and Toxicology, and Lexi-Lab and Diagnostic Procedures.

Frequently accessed content can be stored on the BlackBerry handset. Real-time updates can be automatically and securely accessed by the user via the BlackBerry handset's wireless Internet connection as new content is published.

Individual subscribers, such as family physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and students, can personalize content on their BlackBerry handsets by selecting the information they want to view or hide.

"The installation process is very simple, with no desktop computer required. And since BlackBerry handsets are built to run Java, the customization capabilities are really limitless from a development standpoint, both for Lexi-Comp and for the user," said Steven Kerscher, President and COO of Lexi-Comp.
