Smart Medicine: How Point Six Wireless Sensors are Improving Healthcare

 

We have smart phones, smart cars and smart houses, so it seems fitting that we should also have smart medicine. Point Six wireless sensors are being implemented all over the world to improve healthcare with the use of technology.  Here is how some state of the art facilities are leading the way in modern medicine by using Point Six wireless sensors to elevate the quality and safety of patient care.

 

Many medications and vaccines, blood supplies and nutritional provisions must be kept at specific temperatures. A refrigeration failure or mistake in monitoring can make the medications ineffective, blood unstable and food unsafe. Point Six wireless temperature sensors immediately alert staff if the temperature drops below acceptable levels, ensuring that hospital inventory meets CDC guidelines and JCAHO regulatory standards. This eliminates the danger of improperly stored supplies, protects the financial investment of the hospital and the safety of the patients.

 

In another step to protect patients, hospitals have installed Point Six Wi-Fi differential pressure sensors to ensure that patients are not exposed to harmful airborne contaminants. Controlling airflow between adjacent rooms, such as operating rooms and isolation rooms, is critical to preventing harmful microbes from invading areas with immune sensitive patients. Maintaining a constant balance of air pressure restricts the airflow and minimizes the mobility of these airborne contaminants. Point Six’s revolutionary differential pressure sensors alert staff when the pressure is compromised and airborne microbes can cross-contaminate adjacent areas. This exposure is something that cannot be seen by the naked eye, but with Point Six Wi-Fi differential pressure sensors it can be immediately detected and remedied.

 

Point Six’s industry-leading wireless sensors are helping to enhance healthcare in hospitals, pharmacies and laboratories across the world. With Point Six sensors monitoring conditions, healthcare is improved, hospitals run more efficiently and we can all breathe a little easier.
