This system is jointly developed by AVIC Core Control Technology Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as AVIC Core Control) and 301 Hospital. It is based on radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and is developed for the traceability process of surgical instrument packs in the hospital supply room. It avoids the problems of high labor intensity, inaccurate monitoring, and secondary pollution that exist in the traditional process. occur. The General Hospital of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (referred to as the 301 Hospital) is the largest comprehensive hospital in the entire army, integrating medical treatment, health care, teaching, and scientific research, and is one of the country’s important health care bases. After more than a year of research and development and testing, the RFID information management system has been successfully applied in 301 Hospital.
The RFID information management system of the supply room requires an RFID label for each equipment package, which is responsible for collecting and storing the attribute information of each link in the equipment package process, including the type and number of the equipment, the quantity, the number of the packing personnel, the packaging date, and the type of the equipment package. etc. The system can display the temperature, pressure, and time curve of each equipment package in real time, check the storage location of the existing equipment package at any time, count and analyze the use of the equipment package, and learn the relevant information of the equipment package, including the process Relevant personnel in all aspects of the process have clarified their responsibilities.
The supply room’s recycling process for surgical instrument kits includes four steps: recycling (cleaning), packaging, disinfection, and distribution. In each link, medical personnel mainly use handheld computers and desktop readers to complete the data reading and storage functions. In the recycling process, the nurse in the supply room can log in to the system with a card, while the nurse in the department who wants to return the equipment bag confirms the information with the RFID tag on the department card and the equipment bag. The recycling can be completed after the recycling nurse verifies and confirms the information. In the packaging process, the equipment package nurse in the packaging room fetches tools and equipment package tags from the equipment room, and then swipes the card with the package nurse to log in to the system, and scans the package tags of the equipment package. The system automatically records the personnel and time, etc. The information can be sent to the disinfection room for disinfection. In the disinfection process, after the equipment package is disinfected, the disinfection nurse logs into the disinfection system of the handheld with the card. The system will verify whether the disinfection is qualified according to the label on the sterilizer. If it is qualified, the nurse will scan the label of the equipment package (write the qualified information Label) and automatically record each information. During the issuance process, the nurses in the supply room hold their handhelds to each department to complete the task of distribution on the day. The nurses in each department swipe their card to confirm the type and quantity of the equipment package, and complete the distribution process after verifying that they are correct.
Because the chip can be reused many times, it saves a lot of cost for 301 Hospital, and it is easy to operate and easy to manage. RFID technology makes the entire process of the supply room more intelligent, standardized, standardized and intuitive. Although this is the first application of RFID technology in the medical field, this application is successful and fruitful. The use of RFID system for information management in the disinfection supply room not only makes the work more efficient, accurate and convenient, but also enables paperless operations, and can effectively control the occurrence of regenerative surgical instrument infection. At the same time, the use of information management can improve the overall image and competitiveness of the hospital.
At present, the RFID information management system operated in 301 Hospital has already enabled 20,000 RFID tags and 140 RFID readers, and the number will increase next year. There are more than 40,000 hospitals of various types in China, and the system is applicable to more than 10,000 hospitals. Based on an average of 10,000 labels used by each hospital, the total number of labels used by hospitals across the country will reach more than 100 million. It can be seen that the application prospect of this system in the medical field is very broad.
