The RFID-Labels from Schreiner MediPharm ensure reliable marking and tracking for a variety of medicine containers.
The demands made on automated medication management in hospitals are growing continuously. With its innovative RFID technology, Schreiner MediPharm in combination with the KitCheck™ systems from Bluesight offers a solution that optimizes digital inventory control in hospital pharmacies. The Robust RFID-Labels from Schreiner MediPharm enable precise tracking of drugs, reduce medication errors, and enhance supply efficiency.
Schreiner MediPharm has developed high-performance RFID-Labels precisely adapted to the requirements of the KitCheck™ Scanning Stations enabling reliable identification of the drug containers. KitCheck™ is a proven system by U.S. market leader Bluesight for efficient and digital inventory management. To date, more than 325 million units of injectable emergency and anaesthetic drugs have been captured by the system in 900 North American hospitals.
The particularly robust RFID-Labels from Schreiner MediPharm can easily be applied in pharmaceutical production settings and are designed for high-speed labelling systems. Their specially developed Robust RFID structure permanently protects the chip against mechanical stress and functional failures. Thanks to their optimized design, the RFID-Labels can be reliably applied even to primary containers with narrow radii such as vials or syringes. Moreover, they offer a wide variety of additional functions such as integrated hangers, removable documentation labels, or tamper-evident seals.
In the application, Schreiner MediPharm’s RFID-Labels can automatically be read out in the KitCheck™ Scanning Stations using Bluesight’s tracking software. The systems not only capture the drug itself but also important information such as batch numbers, expiration dates, missing or expired drugs, or indications of previously opened drugs. Due to a digital first-opening indication feature additionally integrated in the label, the integrity of the containers can be monitored on unit level.
The RFID-Labels from Schreiner MediPharm in combination with the KitCheck™ systems create the basis for hospital pharmacies to benefit from automated, digital medication management. “Due to the utilization of RFID technology, drug inventories can be monitored in real time, which facilitates the work of hospital pharmacies and increases safety along the entire supply chain,” said Nick Petersen, VP Corporate Development at Bluesight. “Standardized and reliable RFID labelling of pharmaceutical products improves workflow, helps reduce medication errors, and enhances patient safety,” added Sebastian Münscher, Senior Product Manager RFID/NFC Solutions at Schreiner MediPharm.
