Surgical instrument RFID tracking management system solution

Hong Kong, 2nd-The Rigshospitalet Hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark implemented a metal labelhandSurgical equipmentRFID tracking management system solution. The project leader, Dr. Henrik Eriksen, announced the results of this 18-month pilot last month: “In the past year, tracking surgical instruments based on RFID technology has helped shorten the surgical process by 31,000 working hours, while also improving the safety of patients’ medical treatment. The quality of control for disinfection and sterilization of instruments.”

2. Project design

Hand based on RFID technologySurgical equipmentRFID tracking management system solution,Use the RFID UHF reader to scan the tray prepared before the operation and record all the surgical instruments in the tray. In order to ensure the accuracy of counting, the RFID reader will scan multiple times before the tray enters the operation. When the operation is completed, use the RFID mobile data collector again to confirm that no equipment is missing. The RFID UHF reader will also scan the instruments and record the disinfection process during the disinfection and sterilization process.

The RFID reader can read 60-80 instruments in a surgical tray at the same time. Rigshospitalet previously used QR codes to manage surgical instruments. Dr. Eriksen said: “Compared with QR codes and other types of RFID technology, UHF RFID has unparalleled advantages in reading speed and accuracy. Rigshospitalet Hospital is known for providing high-quality services to patients. Leading technical strength allows us to realize the cost-effectiveness of tracking surgical instruments and optimizing work processes.”

3. Technical advantages

The RFID tracking management system used by Rigshospitalet was developed by Caretag Surgical, a medical RFID solution provider based in Copenhagen. Each surgical instrument is equipped with a Dash XS passive UHF RFID metal tag. The glue used to install the label is provided by Dana Lim A/S.

During the pilot project, the hospital found that the small labels installed on surgical instruments did not affect the use of surgical instruments. RFID tags can withstand more than 1,000 cycles of high temperature and high pressure steam sterilization, and most tags on the market currently cannot withstand such an environment.

The significance of the success of this pilot project is to improve the safety of medical treatment through automated tracking of surgical instruments, improve the traceability of surgical instrument management in the work process, and reduce costs by improving surgical efficiency. Rigshospitalet has about 75,000 operations each year,handSurgical equipmentRFIDTracking managementSystem solutionsSaved 31,000 hours for the hospital. This time refers to the surgical process that does not include the advantages of RFID in disinfection management and infection prevention, such as improving the safety of patients in medical treatment, preventing the loss of surgical assets, and so on.

“Hospitals are facing a surge in the number of operations but limited resources. This requires more urgent requirements for RFID tracking and management of surgical instruments,” said Soren Bilsoe, founder of Caretag Surgical. “Caretag Surgical’s RFID tracking management system for surgical instruments ensures that every Appropriate instruments are used in the operation, and all instruments are accurately and automatically managed, and detailed files are established, such as the patient’s surgical information, the surgeon, the disinfection process, the location of the instrument and the history of use, etc.
