Description

The Situate™ detection system X accurately and reliably detects tagged sponges with 100% sensitivity and specificity.1 And it does so in less time than manual counts.2 The system is comprised of 4 components including an automated body scanner, console, tagged cotton, and room scanner. Together, they detect missing and retained tagged sponges up to 16 inches away in vivo, in the presence of fat, dense tissue, blood, bone, and near metal. And the system seamlessly integrates into existing OR processes. 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. In fact, a survey of 2,285 clinicians who used the Situate™ detection system revealed:2 99.5% agree it doesn’t interrupt closing procedures 97% agree it’s easy to use 95% agree it improved confidence in the final count 83% agree it improved time to resolve count discrepancy The Situate™ body scanner pad, containing six evenly-distributed radiolucent antennae, is placed under the patient. It identifies Situate™ detection system tagged sponges to a depth of up to 16 inches in vivo — completely hands-free. Situate™ room scanner is a handheld, motion-based scanning device quickly locates missing sponges beyond the sterile field — in linens, trash, and anywhere else they may end up.
