Instrument tracking systems are evolving with new technologies designed to assist Sterile Processing Department (SPD) professionals in overseeing various elements of their instrument processing workflow. The rising cases of unavailability of instruments, and increased incidences of retained surgical instruments in the human body after surgical procedures are contributing to the greater adoption of surgical instrument tracking systems. According to the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the fatality rate of retained surgical objects is about 2.0%. The absence of surgical instruments in their right places leads to delays and stress in the operating rooms, creating additional risks for patients. This adds to the demand for surgical instrument tracking systems market.
Generally, surgical sets are compiled based on predetermined instrument checklists, occasionally comprising more than 200 instruments. Technicians are required to assemble these sets, ensuring no items are absent or mismatched. The employment of tracing systems provides visual guides to help technicians identify instruments automatically recognising and matching instruments through RFID barcode scanning. The rising caseloads, increasing complexity of use, and requirement of consistent training of staff necessitate the use of tracking systems. The systems help technicians document steriliser loads and print barcodes.
Hospitals such as Community Health Systems, Inc (NYSE: CYH) are the key end users of the surgical tracking systems, allowing for the smooth functioning of surgical procedures. In April 2023, NDI (Northern Digital Inc.) launched its new compact optical tracker for instrument tracking inside confined clinical and surgical suites. Polaris Lyra, the optical tracker has a high measurement rate of up to 125 Hz and accuracy of up to 0.20 mm RMS.
