Improve medical sterilization process with FRAM RFID
[ad_1]
Hospitals and medical institutions are facing the problem of how to record during the process of using, disinfecting, storing and destroying medical equipment and supplies. First of all, medical and equipment suppliers must ensure that their medical equipment and supplies are safe and sterile from manufacturing to use by professional medical staff. Nowadays, medical staff also need a way to prevent problems before they happen, and record the use of these devices in medical institutions. Such records are necessary to ensure that medical equipment and medical supplies are clean and free of contamination.
Now, Fujitsu’s ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) combined with radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is simplifying the process of ensuring the safety of these critical products. RFID technology provides a fast and efficient electronic method to track and save usage records for medical supplies. However, most RFID technologies lack the durability and reliability required in the medical environment. For example, the gamma-ray sterilization method commonly used in medical institutions can destroy standard RFID tags.
This article will introduce Fujitsu’s FRAMRFID technology. The technology combines high-performance and high-capacity RFID tracking capabilities with anti-radiation properties, and can withstand gamma-ray sterilization (Figure 1).
