As a follow-up to the Blood Center solution video, below is the companion video that details how RFID (and Auto-ID technologies such as barcodes and sensors) can be used to enhance and improve patient safety at bed-side point of care – though the video demonstrates transfusion medicine, the solution itself is flexible enough to extend to other medication as well, helping reduce and eliminate bed-side errors. Enjoy the video and drop me a line if you have any questions, comments,[...]

Here’s a brief video that walks through the mission-critical solution we are designing and deploying as part of the Transfusion Medicine RFID Consortium, using RFID (and Auto-ID technology such as barcodes and sensors) to keep our nation’s blood supply chain safe. Have a look at the video, and goto the ‘How it Works’ section of the Transfusion Medicine RFID website to learn more. As always, look forward to your feedback, and drop me a line if you are looking at[...]
