| FEAT | SPECIAL FEATURES | THE ROOM SCANNER IS A HAND HELD SCANNING TOOL FOR DETECTING MISSING OR RETAINED SPONGES IN AND AROUND THE STERILE FIELD (I.E., LINENS, DRAPES, TRASH BINS). THE SCANNER FUNCTIONS AS BOTH AN ANTENNA TO TRANSMIT ELECTROMAGNETIC IMPULSES THAT STIMULATE THE RF TAG ON SPONGES AND PACKING, AND AS A RECEIVER TO DETECT THE RESONANT SIGNAL RETURNING FROM THE TAGGED ITEMS. THE SCANNER IS PRIMARILY USED FOR QUICKLY LOCATING A MISSING SPONGE IN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE PATIENT. IT IS ALSO USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SITUATE BODY SCANNER/BODY SCANNER LITE WHEN THE SURGICAL SITE IS BEYOND THE EFFECTIVE RANGE OF THE BODY SCANNER. THE ROOM SCANNER IS MOVED IN SPECIFIC PATTERNS FOLLOWING THE CONTOUR OF THE PATIENTS BODY TO DETECT THE TAG IN VARIOUS ORIENTATIONS. THE SCANNER HAS A DETECTION RANGE OF 40.6CM (16 IN) |
