Intelliguard RFID Solutions
Linked Visibility Inventory System
Intelliguard takes medication management to a new level with its
new system. There's no disruption to work flow. When providers
open the drawer and remove medication, the automated process
begins. The read surface on top reads the RFID tag, and when the
drawer closes, the machine scans the remaining contents and auto-
matically updates inventory data globally for all machines in all ORs.
"Like the refrigerator in my hotel room," laughs Dr. Viscusi.
"Automatic inventory is a real advantage over other systems."
It also updates the pharmacist, delivering a message either by com-
puter or phone if medications are out or running low. By recording how
much medication is used over time, and how many reach par level
thresholds, it can also help facilities proactively manage inventory. It
tracks expiration dates and recalls, as well. And it helps ensure nar-
cotics aren't left unattended. If a provider logs out with a narcotic on
the read surface, it flashes a bright red light and notifies both the
physician and the pharmacy.
