Computerise blood records

At the Worthing and Southlands Hospitals (Shoreham-by-Sea), plus the nearby private BMI Hospital (Goring Hall), the tasks of monitoring and recording selected temperatures for critical blood products are now carried out by ‘Tutela’, a fully MHRA compliant monitoring, recording and alarming solution from Next Control Systems. Validated to FDA 21CFR part 11 compliancy, it gives peace of mind to anyone in a regulated environment where audits are on the agenda. Tutela uses either
an NHS Ethernet network or GPRS communications to allow the user real time access and viewing of the Tutela Website. Installation time and costs are slashed thanks to wireless technology that can be placed in any number of locations to provide an interconnecting temperature monitoring system throughout a hospital network.
