Abstract:
A system and method of managing the logistics of trays and lots of medical inventory, such as surgical implants, from the manufacturer's initial release until final discharge by the end user healthcare provider. The system is driven by one or more software applications running on a central, secure server accessible by remote handheld telecommunication devices. The software platform comprises several assemblies integrated into the system, the assemblies including: a database access layer assembly, a business rules assembly, an entity or business object assembly, a web service assembly, a database connection assembly, a presentation assembly for a handheld device and a presentation assembly for a website and windows program. Additional features of the system could include a geographic map, an inventory list of trays and corresponding lots, an imaging assembly to read barcodes or other optic identifiers, an Food and Drug Administration news assembly incorporating a live RSS news feed for releases about product defects or recalls, a web browser, and a notebook assembly to enter customized notes in free form text.
