Abstract | We present an RFID-enabled platform for hospital ward management. The platform keep tracks of the real-time information about the locations of the tagged objects. This platform has the capabilities of real-time monitoring and tracking of individuals and assets, reporting of ward statistics, and providing
intelligence and analytics for hospital ward management. All of these capabilities benefit hospital ward management by enhanced patient safety, increased operational efficiency, and mitigation of risk of infectious disease widespread. A prototype developed based on our proposed architecture of the platform was tested in a pilot study, which was conducted in two medical wards of the intensive care unit of one of the largest public general hospitals in Hong Kong. This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of the implementation of this RFIDenabled platform for practical use in hospital wards. Furthermore, the data collected from the pilot study are used to provide data analytics for hospital ward
management. |
