A COMPLETE, END-TO-END SPECIMEN MONITORING SYSTEM

SPECIMEN TRACK OFFERS AN RFID SPECIMEN TRACKING SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONALS TO TRACK SPECIMEN SAMPLES IN REAL-TIME AS THEY ARE DELIVERED FROM COLLECTION TO LABORATORIES.

ACCURACY

Improve specimen handling accuracy by reducing labelling errors and avoiding misreading of specimen information.

Increase lab productivity by eliminating manual transcription processes and time-wasting searches for specimens.

PRODUCTIVITY

REDUCTION

Enjoy a reduction in operations costs and error-prone situations by going paperless and avoiding mislabelling.

Gain 100% visibility of specimen location in real-time, as it is in transit and en route to the laboratory.

VISIBILITY

Collection

  1. Each specimen is assigned an RFID tag once it is collected for tracking.
  2. The RFID tag stores key details of the specimen including patient information, specimen origin, intended destination, and suspected disease.
  3. Specimen information is then synchronized with facility, courier, and laboratory databases in real-time and ready to be tracked.

Tracking

  1. As the specimen is dispatched and arrives at each checkpoint, its RFID tag is scanned.
  2. Via GPRS-enabled RFID technology, the location of the specimen is updated to the servers each time it is scanned during transit.
  3. The specimen’s status can be tracked in real-time to see how long it has been in transit and to confirm if it has been securely delivered.

Monitoring

  1. Once the specimen arrives at the lab, it is scanned to complete the delivery cycle and its status is updated across all facility databases. 
  2. Specimen info is automatically integrated into laboratory systems so that accurate diagnosis can begin immediately.
  3. While in-lab, each specimen can be monitored for location, temperature, and current lab status during the diagnosis process.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

BENEFITS FOR EVERY LAB

Disease Control & Infection

  • Efficiently track the delivery of specimens in real-time as they are in transit and en route from community sources to the microbiology laboratory.
  • Track how long the specimen was in transit to determine whether it can still be used.
    Clearly identify specimen origin and the suspected disease.

Hospital Laboratories

  • Quickly setup specimen information during collection and accurately identify patient samples to avoid human error during the diagnosis process.
  • Have a clear view of where the clinical specimen is within the facility; whether it is in chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, or microbiology, enabling the most efficient diagnosis to patients hospital-wide.

Community Laboratories

  • Accurately track where each specimen is arriving from and be confident that specimen data is automatically integrated into your laboratory system.
  • Know exactly where each specimen is located at every point of the specimen processing workflow.

Blood Banks

  • Effectively track blood specimens as they are delivered to the blood centre.
  • Monitor blood specimen inventory to increase the proficiency of catering to patient transfusion needs.
  • Accurately manage blood specimens to minimize transfusion errors.
