Babies need to be protected against more than just abduction
|
Two infants are bathed and each accidentally returned
to the incorrect bassinet. A mother picks up her child
according to the bassinet label, unaware that a swap has taken place.
Fortunately, this hospital is equipped with BabyMatch.
When a mother attempts to leave the area with the wrong baby, an announcement is made and nearby nurses are notified.
BabyMatch provides staff and parents the comfort of knowing that babies
are only handled by the right people and that infant whereabouts is
always known |

Constant Safety
Maternity wards are handling more and more births. Keeping track of the growing number of babies has become challenging for even the most modern hospitals. BabyMatch provides a constant real-time baby monitoring solution. Nurses are alerted immediately upon unauthorized baby tag activity and are provided with a continuous view of baby locations.
Exit Alarm
When a baby approaches an exit, Nurses and Security are notified by audio, visual and text alarms. Standard LON relay devices can be used to control door locks or elevators.
Escort
A baby requiring treatment from a different department can be escorted through an exit by an authorized member of staff with an ELPAS personnel badge. Alternatively, a
baby's tag can be specifically disarmed when required using a keypad and private PIN code. The tag rearms automatically when the infant wearing it returns to the ward.
Tamper Alarm
The ELPAS baby tag is easily attached and is activated by simply clicking the disposable band onto the reusable tag. If the tag is removed, a tamper alarm will sound indicating the location of the baby.
Missing Alarm
Should the system cease to receive a tag's radio transmission, a Missing alarm is sounded and the
baby's last known location is indicated.
Match Tests
Using ELPAS Mother Tags, a mother can test for a match at any time and receive an audio or visual confirmation that the baby she is with is her own. Match tests can be performed by both parents and for twins/triplets.
Simple Tag Attachment
Place the band on the baby's ankle, resize the band to fit and just click on the tag. Immediately, the baby is protected. As most babies lose weight during the first 48 hours, the band may be tightened without having to remove the tag.
Easy to use Software
The intuitive EIRIS software is built for easy interactivity and designed with convenient touch screens that enable the nurse to monitor alarms, discharge tags and assign baby names. The staff may also generate reports on all tag events including enrollment/disarm/discharge, alarms and tag movements around the ward.
