Unified Asset Visibility in Healthcare
Wi-Fi-Based RFID – Pervasive hospital wide visibility
Chokepoints – OR/ED workflow automation (Bay level separation), immediate safety and theft alerts
Passive RFID – specimen tracking, OR small equipment and trays
Sensors – Temperature and humidity monitoring (Drugs, vaccines, tissues, blood, food, etc.)
Page 7CONFIDENTIALwww.aeroscout.com
Unified Asset Visibility in Healthcare
Wi-Fi-Based RFID – Indoors and outdoors pervasive hospital wide visibility
Chokepoints – Gate and dock arrivals/departures for supply chain
Sensors – Cold chain temperature and humidity monitoring of pharmaceutical products
