Environmental Monitoring / Temperature Monitoring

CheckPoint takes advantage of the latest developments in wireless technology, utilizing the 900 MHz ISM radio frequency range most suitable for this type of monitoring application. All hardware complies with FCC Part 15 for non-interference, meaning that it will not interfere with your existing Wi-Fi network and other wireless devices used for medical applications.

We design, engineer and manufacturer our own sensors and write custom software that ensures seamless system functionality. Since 2002, we have dedicated ourselves to providing consistent software enhancements and product improvements that meet the changing needs of the healthcare environment, making CheckPoint the most modern and versatile wireless system available for hospitals, laboratories and others.

One click instantly displays an updated temperature chart for any piece of equipment. CheckPoint will fully and continuously document status and events, including storage time, temperature and corrective actions taken to meet compliance and auditing requirements. This ensures the highest level of quality and patient care at your medical facility or laboratory.

Monitor any number of refrigerators and freezers with intuitive color-coded temperature indicators and alerts; each equipment can be individually customized easily by the user for any alert parameter. Since 2002, the CheckPoint software has been put through the paces and exceeded the demands of numerous hospitals and labs, including the challenging environments of NASA and FDA laboratories.

Two-way communication and expanded individual sensor memory protects against any data loss caused by a network interruption, computer malfunction or other system failure. This makes CheckPoint G3 the most robust and reliable wireless sensor system on the market today.

CheckPoint is also designed to be highly scalable. It will function as a standalone system monitoring just a few sensors in a limited area, while affording you the option to expand at any time into a fully networked environment simultaneously monitoring hundreds of refrigerators located both in your facility and in multiple remote buildings.

Managing for Compliance is important. Managing for Quality is essential

Eoscene makes it easy and cost effective for health care providers to ensure that vaccines, medications, laboratory specimens, and food stored in refrigerators and freezers are maintained at proper temperatures, while providing the ability to demonstrate to state and federal regulators that these temperatures are checked regularly and that proper corrective actions are taken when temperatures deviate from required ranges.

AssureTemp™ for eCMS™ ensures temperature critical medical devices are monitored and managed to meet both compliance and high quality care objectives. AssureTemp™ is a complementary product to the Eoscene Compliance Management Service, eCMS™ which adds continuous automatic real-time temperature management to our industry leading compliance service.

Protect high value inventory, automatically capture temperature readings from each monitored device, at user defined intervals.

Escalate unaddressed alarms, when a user defined threshold is exceeded, audible alarms sound and designated users are notified via pager or email or both. Follow up tasks may be initiated and if unaddressed, escalated.

Eliminate refrigerator log errors, take the tedious work out of documentation and reduce the risk of non-compliance in managing medications. Ensure refrigerator logs are complete, repairs or adjustments are documented and schedules are maintained.

Centralized control saves staff and management time, a single real-time dash board view lets you know which devices needs immediate attention. Spend your resources where it will directly improve patient care.

Utilize existing Infrastructure, either wired Ethernet or 802.11 wireless (Wi-Fi) networks. Support of 802.11b/g will not degrade your existing wireless network performance.

Easy to use and install, requiring only a network address, basic power, and placement of a sensor, internal staff can easily install.

Access via the Internet, all you need to monitor the status of your refrigerators is a browser on a desktop or mobile device.

Temp Trak® is a 900 MHz FHSS (902-928 MHz) wireless based temperature/humidity/status system. The transmitter is only 3.5" x 1.7" x .9" (8.9 cm x 4.3 cm x 2.29 cm) in size and operates on a 2/3rds replaceable lithium battery with an average life expectancy of 2 - 5 years, depending on sampling frequency. Temp Trak supports temperature ranges from -200ºC to 425ºC as well as temperature/humidity sensors allowing for the monitoring of temperature from -28ºC to 65ºC and 0% to 100% RH. . This temperature range allows Temp Trak to support most any storage environment currently found. Temp Trak is currently installed in over 250 healthcare facilities, some with over 1,000 temperature points monitored and nearly 50 outbuildings/clinics and covering all departments including:

• Blood Bank
• Clinical
• Lab
• Nursing
• Pharmacy
• Nutrition

As well as temperature and humidity sensors, Temp Trak also features a contact sensor that can detect a normally open or normally closed status. The contact sensors can be configured in conjunction with either temperature or temperature/humidity sensors to create diagnostic as well as temperature alerts. Additionally, it will tell you the number of times the door has been opened over a given period, how long each time the door was open and the accumulative time.

Temp Trak has a base receiver that can be connected either serially to computer or directly to a local area network. It is designed so that one system can cover an entire facility, as well as outbuildings, remote locations, such as clinics, etc.

Temp Trak RF is designed to co-exist with other 900 MHz systems without causing interference or requiring any modifications to existing RF systems. It is fully compatible with Spectralink 900 MHz Telephone Systems.

Temp Trak provides a whole host of user-friendly reports from hourly to daily to monthly. The reports can be graphic or numeric. The software is designed to recognize user identity and only provide the information that the user is approved to view. Users are also configurable for read-access only. When an event occurs, Temp Trak tracks the event from the time of occurrence until the time the event is cleared and records all the corrective actions for reporting purposes. Temp Trak logs monitor any event within the software from user access to configuration changes, for detailed auditing.

Temp Trak can also be integrated into meal delivery systems to track food from the point of preparation through distribution in a hospital.
