RFID Labels Track Syringes of Propofol

Pharmaceutical and repackaging company Genixus has released the first of its RFID-enabled prefilled products for use in acute and critical healthcare.

Its single-dose propofol syringes leverage the company's KinetiX ready-to-administer syringe platform and Kit Check's passive UHF RFID tags, reader stations and cloud-based registry, to help hospitals individually and automatically identify each unique product.

The first 10-milliliter and 20-milliliter propofol syringe products will begin shipping later this year, the company reports, each with a passive UHF RFID tag embedded in its label.
