WaveMark unveils RFID-enabled smart cabinets

Thursday, February 25, 2010

WaveMark announced the release of several new RFID-enabled smart cabinet styles for the real-time tracking of critical supplies used in health care and medical departments.

Offered in the three styles, the cabinets offer locking doors that can be access via an RFID fob or PIN to identify the individual who accessed the product.

The cabinet line-up includes:

  • An upright five-shelf cabinet, suited for high-value products, such as implantable cardiac defibrillators or pacemakers, and to store products in areas where higher security is necessary.
  • A wireless mobile cabinet for easy transport from storage to procedure room while maintaining real-time read reliability over a 12-hour battery-life.
  • A tabletop cabinet for tracking in small places or smaller inventories such as heart valves.

The RFID storage units are specifically designed to enable hospitals to improve cost containment, patient safety and regulatory compliance. [end]
