MileWATCH is a 24/7 monitoring system that allows to connect, monitor and control Milestone units continuously through day and night. Status information is collected from units installed in both the Surgical Theatre and Pathology Lab. MileWATCH offers the possibility to create a unique samples’ “chain of custody”, starting from the collection in the Surgical Theatre and until the tissues arrive to the Pathology Lab.
MileWATCH is Milestone’s solution to increase specimens' traceability and document the different processes of the lab. To ensure that the diagnostic process runs smoothly and problem-free, the software alerts users with real time notifications via email, messages or phone calls, so that operators can promptly intervene in case of a warning. The possibility to
remotely control the instruments allows the lab personnel to better plan their workflow, prevent errors and downtime.
One of the common limitations of today’s tracking systems is that the Laboratory Manager cannot check the specimens' situation in the Operating Rooms in real time. MileWATCH addresses this specific challenge: the Lab Manager can exactly check and track the specimens, right from the moment they are collected from the patients.
The Case ID and all necessary information (formalin ratio used, temperature and time of the transport) are saved. Tracking specimen information from the OR is essential in order to get standardization and documentation and manage the workload in the AP
REAL TIME WORKFLOW
MileWATCH allows to view and control the workflow of samples in real time. MileWATCH enables to detect bottlenecks and to maximize efficiency of tissue processing, thus improving productivity.
