Industry Leading Partners showcase High ROI Process Improving Applications using USID at HIMSS

Together with industry leading partners Sonitor Technologies will present and demonstrate high accuracy and high return on investment RTLS applications at Sonitor's HIMSS booth #4845 in Chicago April 5-8.

"Sonitor is the leader in providing accurate real time location information technology for tracking of patients, staff and equipment in hospitals," Terry Aasen, the CEO of Sonitor's Americas operations remarked. "We want to show the industry how Sonitor's proven ultrasound high definition RTLS technology improves hospital operations when deployed with the best of software applications to improve workflow, patient throughput, nurse-call, operational visibility, etc." Aasen continued.


In addition to 100% room-level location accuracy, Sonitor's USID RTLS technology provides hospitals with the benefit of identifying multiple unique location zones in the same room. Such zones can for example be a patient's bed, which enables automatic recording of patient and caregiver interaction events, or create a zone by the sanitation station to enable monitoring of compliance with hand-washing rules. Sonitor's new High Definition Receiver is plug and play compatible with existing Wi-Fi or Ethernet networks. The Sonitor Tag technology is developed specifically for use in hospitals. Special water-proof patient tags are designed to eliminate cross contamination risks, and equipment and staff tags have a robust design with message capabilities and a long battery-life.
