This study supports barcode scanning to improve patient safety while saving significant time in the preparation and feeding process.
“Barcode scanning systems that offer features beyond identifying the correct human milk (such as calculating fortified HM and formula recipes, tracking product lot numbers, and verifying correct products to the provider order) can further improve patient safety as well as improve efficiency.
The Timeless Medical Women & Infants System™ is clinically proven to reduce costs, and save clinicians time. It is the only system able to read and decode human milk bank barcodes, and all formula manufacturer barcodes, ensuring the right feed to the right patient every time.”
The following study was conducted independently at a facility utilizing the Timeless Women & Infants System™ with no financial incentive provided by Timeless Medical Systems
