The cloud-based solution monitors temperature and humidity of refrigerators and regulated rooms with real-time alerts to ensure the safety of medications and biologicals.
Kontakt.io, a provider of AI-powered RTLS for care operations, announced the launch of a new solution that enables hospitals to continuously monitor the temperature and humidity of refrigerators, warmers, and regulated rooms that store condition-sensitive materials such as medications, vaccines, and biologics.
The solution utilizes a modern design with monitors that help staff see the temperature range at a glance with probes that feed data to a cloud-based dashboard, providing real-time alerts and reporting capabilities. This new temp-monitoring solution is designed to help hospitals comply with stringent vaccine storage and handling requirements of the Vaccines for Children program by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention with easy-to-use reporting for periodic audits. Additionally, the system is available with NIST-traceable calibration certificates.
By continuously tracking temperatures, healthcare facilities can identify and correct any deviations, minimizing the risk of spoilage, reducing waste, and safeguarding resources.
Managing Critical Materials and Equpiment
As part of Kontakt.io’s Intelligent Orchestration, hospitals can pair the temperature monitoring solution with the Kontakt.io asset tracking solution to have a comprehensive source of data in a single platform to manage critical materials and equipment.
“Our new temperature monitoring solution underscores Kontakt.io’s commitment to improving hospital operational efficiency and patient care,” says Rom Eizenberg, chief revenue officer of Kontakt.io, in a release. “With proactive monitoring and real-time alerts, hospitals can significantly reduce risk, minimize waste, and enhance patient safety, while adhering to regulatory requirements.”
Continuous temperature monitoring is the newest addition to Kontakt.io’s Responsive Care Operations platform, which integrates operational and EHR data into a unified solution. Offered as a managed service, the platform utilizes AI-powered RTLS to turn operational data into actionable insights, automation, and real-time decision support.
