GE Healthcare and Centrak publishing beds-level real-time locating system

GE Healthcare and Centrak recently published beds-level real-time locating system, this newly developed technology is suitable for hospital medical device tracking mobile needs hospital wants RFID tag position accuracy of medical devices will be able to reach every part of the room.

This Asia room-level recognition capability on certain areas of the hospital is important because it can greatly improve RFID room level positioning accuracy. This new technology called Asset Optimization System (asset location optimization system), makes the Hospital where the exact location of assets, monitoring can be as small as 6 feet x 8 feet, which is a typical small beds district area. Beds in the area can be open or separated by bulian. GE Medical technology company, Bret Barczak said: "our customers tell us that reliable accuracy, price is they select RFID system's two most important factors. Many systems can provide a higher level of location accuracy room, such as ultra-wideband, but often because the price is too high to limit their use. Asset Optimization System allows hospitals to create a virtual room for RFID, there are higher intelligence, tracking and reporting capabilities, very valuable. Particularly in operating theatres and intensive care room such a place. "New York Maimonides Medical Center information Director Kenneth N. Sable said:" we are on the programme of the technology in two impressive progress. First, create a virtual wall, which often open emergency departments environment is very effective. Because it makes it easier for our fast and reliable positioning patients and first aid equipment, such as cardiac pacemakers and portable ultrasonic equipment. Moreover the system is battery-powered, no additional wiring, maintenance is simple. ”

CenTrak company CEO Ari Naim said: "our first RFID system provides 100% of the room-level positioning accuracy.

Now our system of positioning accuracy further improves the leading position in the market. Our goal is to adopt RFID technology to meet the highest visual resolution. Imagine if we can do at the level of visibility, the beds are able to identify who, when and in what we do, the effect will be. ”
