Aethon是實(shí)用商業(yè)領(lǐng)域移動(dòng)式自動(dòng)化機(jī)器人的領(lǐng)先公司,最近宣布普遍采用第一種移動(dòng)式自動(dòng)化機(jī)器人解決方案,用于尋找、配送和收回醫(yī)院設(shè)備。這種唯一能夠自動(dòng)化運(yùn)輸?shù)慕鉀Q方案具有HOMER和TUG的特性,即HOME是Aethon以 RFID為基礎(chǔ)的設(shè)備跟蹤系統(tǒng),TUG是公司廣泛運(yùn)用的設(shè)備配送和收回系統(tǒng)。這兩個(gè)組配作業(yè)的機(jī)器人系統(tǒng)大大改進(jìn)了醫(yī)院工作人員的效率和滿意度,提高了設(shè)備的使用度,降低了設(shè)備租賃費(fèi)用,從而符合管理上的要求。
“醫(yī)院工作人員可以了解什么地方常常移動(dòng),經(jīng)常總是難于找到設(shè)備,這一點(diǎn)十分重要,而且其最主要的價(jià)值在于設(shè)備被自動(dòng)收回,并被配送到當(dāng)其需要時(shí)所需要的地方”,Aethon的首席執(zhí)行官Aldo Zini說(shuō),“HOMER 和TUG這種使醫(yī)院避免對(duì)主要基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投資的唯一設(shè)備使用解決方案改進(jìn)了工作流程,降低了作業(yè)成本和完善了醫(yī)護(hù)質(zhì)量”。
HOMER獨(dú)特的設(shè)備跟蹤能力是TUG技術(shù)所派生的產(chǎn)物,而TUG是醫(yī)院物品和補(bǔ)給品配送和收回中最成功的自動(dòng)化服務(wù)系統(tǒng)。HOMER運(yùn)用單一的移動(dòng)天線,對(duì)TUG平臺(tái)產(chǎn)生影響,可以克服競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手系統(tǒng)所存在的典型基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施方面的障礙。這就生成更為有效的結(jié)構(gòu),使泵、輪椅、監(jiān)視器、呼吸器、床和醫(yī)院其它各種設(shè)備的配置便于跟蹤。
HOMER這個(gè)效費(fèi)比好和綜合的解決方案可以與醫(yī)院現(xiàn)有的系統(tǒng)緊密地融合在一起,它只要求最少的設(shè)備。HOMER與有源RFID標(biāo)簽(獨(dú)特的識(shí)別設(shè)備)配合使用。由于它可以使用任何三組分標(biāo)簽,因此HOMER 是獨(dú)立的標(biāo)簽。而且HOMER可以被納入到現(xiàn)有的設(shè)備管理軟件之中。Aethon可以提供設(shè)備、標(biāo)簽選擇和組裝、軟件綜合、訓(xùn)練和支持。
TUG是一種要求額外基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投資的自動(dòng)化移動(dòng)機(jī)器人,它安裝簡(jiǎn)單,有許多用途,可用于中心供貨、餐飲、制藥、實(shí)驗(yàn)室、醫(yī)藥記錄、護(hù)理和衣物等。當(dāng)前,TUG配送和收回系統(tǒng)已由醫(yī)院用于75個(gè)使用點(diǎn)。許多醫(yī)院采用多用TUG,以實(shí)現(xiàn)省時(shí)省錢(qián),并提高醫(yī)護(hù)人員和病人的滿意度。
“Aethon已經(jīng)重新規(guī)定怎樣地采用設(shè)備使用解決方案,達(dá)到買(mǎi)得起和安裝容易”,Armstrong縣紀(jì)念醫(yī)院,一個(gè)位于Kittanning, Penn的具有173床位的醫(yī)院,其首席執(zhí)行官和董事長(zhǎng)John Lewis說(shuō),“我們每天可以看到有可能改進(jìn)我們對(duì)病員醫(yī)護(hù)質(zhì)量的好建議。不幸的是,從一般社區(qū)醫(yī)院角度來(lái)看,絕大部分太費(fèi)錢(qián),而不能購(gòu)買(mǎi)和安裝。HOMER和 TUG是我們這樣醫(yī)院能力之內(nèi)所能采用的實(shí)用創(chuàng)新”。
“Aethon給醫(yī)院提供了一個(gè)完善的、簡(jiǎn)單的和可靠的設(shè)備使用解決方案”,位于華盛頓哥倫比亞特區(qū)省醫(yī)院(該醫(yī)院是一家具有382床的醫(yī)院)的器材管理部主任Mark Todd說(shuō), “Aethon’解決方案并不十分昂貴,但對(duì)于我們想象中設(shè)備使用解決辦法來(lái)說(shuō)卻是十分完善。當(dāng)我們看其它的選擇方案時(shí),它們不是十分昂貴就是缺少重要的部分。Aethon將自動(dòng)化的配送和收回系統(tǒng)納入其設(shè)備使用解決方案,保證我們不僅了解我們?cè)O(shè)施在那里,而且了解它們位于它們應(yīng)該所處的地方”。
Aethon正在通過(guò)將這種技術(shù)用于一個(gè)定價(jià)創(chuàng)新產(chǎn)品來(lái)克服另一個(gè)障礙。Aethon是提供每一標(biāo)簽(設(shè)備跟蹤)定價(jià)的唯一公司,使得醫(yī)院能夠控制其投資,避免與典型場(chǎng)地許可證相關(guān)的大量資本花費(fèi)。
