RFID in Healthcare
RFID enhances operational efficiency and patient safety in the following key areas:
Patient Tracking RFID wristbands track patients in real-time, verify identity before procedures, and provide access to medical history.
Example: Patient identity confirmation before surgery prevents mix-ups.
Inventory Tracking Hospitals track medicines and equipment with RFID, allowing real-time stock visibility and faster response in emergencies.
Example: Instantly locating the nearest defibrillator.
Medication Tracking RFID ensures correct patient-medication matching and prevents dosage errors.
Example: Rapid medication verification without scanning each barcode.
RFID for Medical Devices RFID supports maintenance, location tracking, and lifecycle management of medical devices.
Maintenance Scheduling: RFID tags alert staff when service is due. Example: An MRI machine’s tag shows last and next maintenance dates.
Usage Duration Tracking: RFID helps manage single-use or sterilized equipment. Example: Surgical tools tracked for proper sterilization and reuse.
