RF Surgical Systems Inc.: System Benefits

Helps prevent retained surgical sponges prior to wound closure.
Protects patient and OR staff during high risk open cases such as bariatric, cardiac and time pressurized trauma cases.
Allows for the early detection of missing items lowering unnecessary X-rays and associated anesthesia time.
Simplified reporting feature stores evidence of scanning and records a unique confirmation number linked to the patient M.R.

RF Assure hands free scanning provides consistency and eliminates the potential for human errors.
Detection mat is conveniently positioned underneath the surgical table covers which is unobtrusive to the surgical staff, saving time and valuable OR space.
Intuitive Graphical User Interface delivers fast and simple feedback while minimizing the level of stress and distraction to the OR staff.

Complies with latest AORN and JCAHO initiatives.
Helps confirm sponge count accuracy that can be compromised by busy OR distraction and multitasking.
Helps limit staff exposure to biologic hazardous material.
Quickly validates "time-out" for closing counts in seconds.
Improves staff wound closure confidence.

RF Detection Technology uses low frequency (145Khz) passive tags which are known to perform well in fluids and near metals. The technology is currently used in over 1,000 ORs every day.
RF Detect tags do not require programming which eliminates the possibility of readability errors.
Automatic Detection Mat reduces human errors with "hands free" scanning.
Early detection improves the outcome of manual counting protocols.
Detection mat and wand can be used to gain detection coverage, specially on high BMI and cardiac cases.

Increase intraoperative efficiency by improving time to resolve miscounts.
Early detection can reduce the number of unnecessary x-rays, anesthesia time and overall OR time.
Affordable with an average cost of $15 per procedure.

Reusable Blair-Port wand and RF Assure Detection mat reduces waste in landfills.
