A Fast Return on Investment Mediscan Loss Prevention Detector has been developed to lower hospital operating costs. Hospital administrators communicated the need for a method of preventing surgical instruments, tools, sensors and monitoring equipment from being lost during surgical suite cleaning. Expensive re-usable stainless steel implements, often costing hundreds of dollars, are inadvertently discarded during cleaning. At many hospitals, the replacement cost alone exceeds $200,000.00 per year. Ranger developed Mediscan to address this need. It provides a fast, inexpensive method of scanning medical waste bags and is an excellent deterrent against employees who are careless, or negligently discard equipment. Accountability can be easily established by issuing trash bags that are tagged. Mediscan is also used to scan laundry for metal objects. This prevents laundry from being damaged or destroyed. Mediscan also reduces bio-medical waste treatment costs that occurs when processing machinery is damaged or locked-up by tools, or implanted devices discarded during an operation. Averting lock-ups avoids plant down time and expensive decontamination and repair procedures that can cost many thousands of dollars. Fast and Efficient Detection Losses are prevented by simply dropping bio-hazardous trash bags through Mediscan’s sensor. Operating room laundry is scanned the same way. The screening procedure is fast and easy. Mediscan alarms when a surgical instrument or tool passes through it. A variable sensitivity adjustment and advanced high discrimination microprocessor controlled electronics enable hospital administrators to specify the size and type of objects that must be detected. For example, the most commonly used operating mode detects stainless steel or ferrous objects only. This allows objects such as bull dog clamps to be targeted while ignoring other metal objects such as aluminum sharps pouches and copper electrodes wires, etc. A second control option allows all types of metal to be detected. This operating mode is useful when inspecting laundry.
