Implant expiry management in healthcare

Healthcare providers understand the importance of implant tracking in order to ensure patient safety and manage supplies and costs.
Expiry management is an important element of medical device, tissue and implant tracking yet many healthcare organizations still rely on manual checks for this vital task. The automatic tracking of implants, tissue and medical devices adds speed and accuracy to a task that carries many risks if it's not done accurately.
Achieve timely and accurate expiry management prevents never events and protects patients, clinicians and the organization.
Smart cabinets are an automated inventory management solution for healthcare providers and are an excellent tool for implant monitoring and expiry management. They are able to provide real-time vision of stock and alert nurses, logistics staff and vendors when items are nearing expiry. This gives the provider the opportunity to use the implant prior to expiry, preventing wastage and ensuring optimum patient outcomes.
Smart cabinets ensure FDA UDI compliance for hosptials and ambulatory care providers by providing end to end implant tracking.
An added bonus of automated inventory management is the vital data they can provide which will inform decision making, streamline the inventory and reduce costs.
