Equipment Maintenance Challenges

Preventive maintenance Equipment cannot be located on time leading to non compliance with regulatory requirementsValuable staff time is spent searching for assets due for PMAsset’s availability is unknown

Recall management Requires immediate actionHundreds of specific recalled devices need to be collected throughout the entire facility

Corrective maintenance Repair of broken equipment on an ad hoc basis, after being alerted by users that repair is requiredTimely pick up and repair improves utilization and can increase patient safety


Visibility Application Requirements

Ubiquitous and pervasive hospital-wide coverage Real-time location indoors and outdoorsZone, room and bay level separation

More than just locationLocation, condition and status

Scalable solutionAbility to handle tens of thousands of assets across multiple sites

Ease of use and deploymentSimple to use end user applications and administrative functionsAutomated exception handling and reporting

Low total cost of ownership Leverage existing infrastructure, reduce deployment risks and minimize maintenance

Flexible integrationIntegration with existing devices and third-party applications Simple integration with medical devices


An Equipment Maintenance Solution

Automates the current manual processes that most hospitals have for locating equipment requiring maintenanceEnables rapid deployment with the lowest total cost of ownership, by leveraging hospital’s existing Wi-Fi networkKey Features:

On-demand searches for equipment requiring maintenance or recallMaintenance and recall alertsIntegration with CMMS (Maintenance Management systems) for automated location update and map viewingIntegration with devices and device management servers for business status updates Inventory, historical location and utilization reportsUser defined groups assist with locating different types of equipment


An Equipment Maintenance Solution

Real-time location updates in biomed system

Pop-up map view directly from biomed system

3D view of assets distributed throughout the campus

Search for groups of work orders, categories or individual assets

Business status visibility Available, soiled, clean, reserved, in maintenance


Typical System Usage

Use Case 1 Search for a set of assets due for PM

Use Case 2 Search for a specific asset requiring repair or PM

Use Case 3 Search for a group of assets that have been recalled

Use Case 4 Analyze equipment inventory and utilization rates


Business Status Retrieval

Synchronize business status from other enterprise applicationsExample - Infusion pump servers

Data is polled/pushed from the server every X minutes

Business status is updated in application

Serial connectivity to devicesTelemetry tag is connected to serial port on medical device

Retrieves operational status - on, off, pumping, not pumping, etc.

Operational status is sent with every tag transmission


Application Integration Example

Location is updated

automatically on MedNet server

Clicking on icon pops up map

view of asset or group of assets


VOIP Phone Asset Locator

Features Locate specific assets or groups of assets View assets in list or on map

Example VOIP phones Cisco 7921, 7925, 7970/5Vocera Healthcare Smartphone


Mobile Search Devices

Features Add/edit/remove assetsTag/un-tag assetsLocate assets and view in a table or on mapOffline mode

Use casesAsset and tag commissioningRemoving tags from assets (rentals, recalls)Search for an asset requiring maintenance


Tag Mounting

Tag mounting options include cradles, Velcro, double sided tape, screws, tie-wrap, wire, adhesiveTags must be securely mounted, yet readily removed for maintenance


Custom Tag Mounts

Custom T2 Tag Mount for Sigma Pumps

Custom T2 Tag Mount for Alaris

Pumps

AeroScout works with customers and device vendors on custom mounting solutions
