Medical Equipment Tracking
For over 20 years we've helped hospitals lower costs by tracking the movement and utilization of medical equipment, instruments, supplies, personnel and patients.
The ABGI AllTraq system is the only commercially available system to utilize FDA approved ultra wideband technology.
How It Works
View location data overlaid on your existing floor plans
The AllTraq system uses a unique combination of radio frequency identification tags (RFID), ultra wideband frequency (UWB) and easy to use software. The system gives you GPS-style tracking in and out of the building. It is low cost, low power, non-interfering and jam resistant.
Tags and/or barcodes are placed on items to be tracked and sensors are placed strategically at the hospital's discretion. The current location of any asset can be viewed on a computer or handheld device. You can view location data overlaid on your existing floor plans making it easy to locate any asset.
The software also provides completely automated and customizable reports for regulatory compliance, including TJC, employee productivity indicators and cost reduction.
Ultra Wideband RFID Tags
Our system has greater accuracy, less interference and lower cost than any other system on the marke
ABGI's AllTraq system is the only UWB system capable of transmitting data over the distance necessary with the accuracy and density capability needed in the healthcare industry. For healthcare, UWB is superior for encryption and meets HIPAA standards for privacy.
The FDA has approved UWB for use in the operating room and has recognized that UWB technology satisfies operating room requirements for medical-grade wireless video systems. UWB's lower RF output power allows same channel reuse in adjacent rooms and results in low interference with other signals.
Data Matrix Barcodes
A Medidot ® Data Matrix barcode encodes as much data as a traditional barcode in one-tenth the space and can be adhered to or laser etched into the instrument.
Redundancy within the symbology makes the barcode readable even if 60% of the image is damaged. The instrument can then be scanned with a handheld device.
