Surgical Disposables Detection System



RF-Detect is a patented surgical disposable detection system for surgical gauze, towels and sponges.  A sterile radio frequency chip, (the size of a grain of rice) is embedded in the surgical disposables.  With the RF Detect system, a patented Blair-Port wand is waved over the patient accurately alerting the user when an RF-tagged surgical disposable remains in the patient before surgical closing procedures.
