Learn more about the Situate™ detection system X.
Situate™ detection console
The console and user interface provide on-screen prompts that guide workflow and generate unique confirmation codes of each scan for convenient EMR entry — during the procedure. This allows OR staff to reconcile any inaccuracies before the case is closed.
Situate™ body scanner lite
The Situate™ body scanner pad, containing six evenly distributed radiolucent antennae, is placed under the patient. It identifies Situate™ detection system tagged sponges.3
Situate™ room scanner
Situate™ room scanner is a handheld, motion-based device that locates missing sponges beyond the sterile field3 — in linens, trash, and anywhere else they may end up. The wand functions as both an antenna and receiver to look for and detect Situate™ premium cotton.
Situate™ premium cotton
Situate™ premium tagged cotton are single-use cotton disposables with an attached RF tag that must be used with the Situate™ detection system X. When activated by magnetic impulses from the scanning devices, the tag resonates a signal that allows for the detection of these cotton disposables.4
