Introduction
At WCS Global Medical Technology, we are thrilled to announce our latest project in progress: the WCS Smart Medication Trolley with RFID. Designed to transform medication management in healthcare facilities, this smart trolley aims to streamline and secure the handling of both regular and controlled substances in various departments like ER, ICU, and OR. With its innovative features, this trolley is set to enhance pharmacy automation, reduce human error, and improve patient care efficiency.
Innovative Features
Our WCS Smart Medication Trolley stands out with advanced RFID technology integrated into each drawer, enabling instant stock-taking as soon as the drugs are loaded or unloaded, even without needing to open the drawers. This ensures efficient and accurate tracking of medications, minimizing the risks of stock-outs or missing drugs. Additionally, an optional RFID-enabled recycling bin can be added for closed-loop traceability, making it a comprehensive solution for medication management.
Cutting-Edge Technology
Powered by industry-leading BoundField Technology, this trolley ensures 100% accuracy with a fast reading capacity of 200 tags/second. The built-in access control systems offer enhanced security with features like:
- RFID Card Access
- Finger Vein Recognition, functional even when wearing gloves
Key Benefits
- Secure Medication Handling: RFID-enabled drawers offer instant stock-taking and prevent drug loss.
- Enhanced Safety: Mechanical locks ensure security during power failures, while a built-in battery provides whole-day service.
- API Integration: The open API facilitates integration with HIS/ERP systems for seamless operations.
- Efficient Pharmacy Management: Reduces costly inventory waste, eliminates expired items, and minimizes hospital disputes over quantities consumed.
- Convenient User Access: Finger vein login enables easy access clearance, even with latex or vinyl gloves.
- Improved Patient Care: Saves time for healthcare staff, allowing more focus on patient treatment.
Project Highlights
- No Missing Tags: All tagged items are accurately read within the trolley.
- No Stray Reads: Only tags inside the trolley are read, avoiding unwanted reads from nearby items.
- Fast Reading Speed: Capable of reading 200 pieces/second, completing stock-checks in under 5 seconds.
- Bedside Pharmacy Functionality: The trolley supports secure bedside drug administration, making it a versatile solution for clinical use.
What’s Next?
The WCS Smart Medication Trolley is currently in development and is expected to be launched soon. Stay tuned for updates and availability announcements as we work to bring this groundbreaking solution to healthcare facilities globally.
