Applied Patent RFID Systems for Building Reacting HEPA Air Ventilation System in Hospital Operation Rooms

摘要: RFID technology, an automatic identification and data capture technology to provide identification, tracing, security so on, was widely applied healthcare industry in these years. Employing HEPA ventilation system hospital is a way ensure healthful indoor air quality protect patients workers against hospital-acquired infections. However, the consumes lots of electricity which cost lot. This study aims apply offer unique medical staff patient reacting order reduce cost, save energy prevent prevalence infection. The system, contains tags (for staffs patients), sensor, receives information regarding number status surgery, controls volume accordingly. A pilot program carried out unit operation rooms center with 1,500 beds located central Taiwan from Jan Aug 2010. results found able function much more efficiently less consumed. Furthermore, could still keep qualified infection or other occupational diseases be prevented.
