DA registered solution for Joint Commission compliance
Monitoring refrigerator and freezer temperature
is necessary to provide the best care possible to
patients, and to stay in compliance with various
regulatory organizations, such as The Joint
Commission (formerly JCAHO), the American
Association of Blood Banks (AABB), the College
of American Pathologists (CAP) and the Clinical
Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA).
Many healthcare organizations currently use
manual processes to monitor refrigerator and
freezer temperatures, often performed by nursing
or laboratory clinical staff. But manual processes
can prove to be unreliable and expensive, as
temperature monitoring takes valuable staff away
from patient care, and human error can affect the
accuracy of data. Failure to provide accurate and
timely data to regulatory organizations could
prevent your healthcare organization from
receiving funds from Medicare and Medicaid
programs, which may account for over half of a
hospital’s revenue.
A Wireless Solution from
Stanley Healthcare Solutions
Now with HealthTRAX, the Stanley Healthcare
Solutions’ system that allows you to monitor your
assets, you can easily and affordably monitor the
temperature of important refrigerated items such
as vaccines, pharmaceuticals, tissues, blood bags,
organs, patient test results and cafeteria food.
HealthTRAX Temperature Monitoring includes RFID
tags that are placed in refrigerators and freezers.
Each tag can be adjusted to read and record the
temperature at a specified time. The information is
then sent to the web-based HealthTRAX monitoring
software. These battery-powered tags use
wireless communication to continually monitor
the temperature of your refrigerated assets at
consistent time intervals, even during a power
failure. And, HealthTRAX Temperature Monitoring
tags use your existing Wi-Fi infrastructure to send
signals to the web-based application, so you save
money and headaches involved with implementing
a new network.
HealthTRAXTM Temperature Monitoring reads
temperatures between –22 degrees Fahrenheit to
+167 degrees Fahrenheit (–30 degrees Celsius to
+75 degrees Celsius). When a temperature drops
below or rises above a defined threshold specified
by the user, an alert is sent to the HealthTRAX
Event Manager.

Customized Alerts – Sent Right To You
Immediate Benefits and ROI
The HealthTRAX Event Manager can specify the
type of alert, and then communicate it to the proper
officials through an e-mail message, a pop-up
window, an alert page, a VoIP phone message or a
text message. HealthTRAX Temperature Monitoring
can be customized to trigger an alert only after a
specified number of consecutive occurrences,
nearly eliminating the possibility of a false alarm.
The cost-effective HealthTRAX Temperature
Monitoring solution provides benefits such as:
HealthTRAX Temperature Monitoring automatically
creates and stores temperature logs, alerts and
corrective actions, and can be accessed through
reports including Historical Temperature, Historical
Event and others.
HealthTRAX Temperature Monitoring uses intelligent
alerts to also communicate when a tag is low on
batteries, or if a tag is moved out of network or
removed from the appliance.
