RFID-BASED QUARANTINE / ISOLATION PATIENT LOCATION CONFIRMATION

RFID BASED QUARANTINE / ISOLATION PATIENT LOCATION CONFIRMATION
Quarantine during a pandemic is a must. Government has begun stamping the hands of the people who have been advised home quarantine in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak. Authorities are using indelible ink like that used for voters mostly on those who have a travel history. Most of such people are not following the instructions given by Government for quarantine.

People are not staying at home, running away from quarantine locations and creating more risk for other healthy people. To avoid such scenarios, we thought real time tracking facility for such quarantine patients will help Government

What does quarantine mean?

Governments use quarantines to stop the spread of contagious diseases. Quarantines are for people or groups who don’t have symptoms but were exposed to the sickness. A quarantine keeps them away from others so they don’t unknowingly infect anyone.

 

Quarantines may be used during:

  • Outbreaks: When there’s a sudden rise in the number of cases of a disease.
  • Epidemics: Similar to outbreaks, but generally considered larger and more widespread.
  • Pandemics: Larger than epidemics, generally global and affect more people.

What’s the difference between isolation and quarantine?

While isolation serves the same purpose as quarantine, it’s reserved for those who are already sick. It keeps infected people away from healthy people to prevent the sickness from spreading.

To stop the spread of the coronavirus, health officials have a recommended refrain: After being in a city or region where there have been a lot of COVID-19 cases, spend 14 days in quarantine even if you feel perfectly fine.
Our solution helps health officials in achieving this.

OPTION-1: SOLUTION

Wristband RFID Tag:

  • Special magnet tool required to remove tag
  • Passive (no battery) RFID Tag
  • Dust & Waterproof
  • Soft & non-allergic to skin

NFC Mobile Phone:

  • NFC Mobile phone application for scanning

Wristband RFID Tag:

  • Access Control and Security in various places like Amusement parks, Clubs, Theatres, etc.
  • Keyless Hotel Room and Locker Entry
  • Hospital and event management
  • Customer Loyalty Programs

A: RFID Tag Association:

  1. If health officials found anyone who traveled or came in contact with a Corona-positive patient then those are asked to quarantine.
  2. Such patient detail information will be captured on NFC-based application software like Name, Age, Address, Mobile No., Photograph, etc.
  3. The wristband will be fixed with a pin which could not be removed without a special magnet tool.
  4. Through NFC mobile application this wristband will be associated with quarantine patients.
  5. Quarantine patient addresses will be Geofenced through NFC mobile application.

B: Location Confirmation:

  1. All quarantine patients need to be traced periodically.
  2. With NFC mobile application prompt to scan it is possible.
  3. Once the prompt comes patient himself or health officials can visit to quarantine the patient’s address and scan the wristband.
  4. If the quarantine address matches with marked Geofence then the system will confirm that the quarantined patient is in place.
  5. If the quarantine address NOT matches with marked Geofence then the system will give an alert to health officials.

Comparison

PASSIVE RFID (RECOMMENDED)

 

  1. Passive RFID Tag easy to deploy
  2. A special magnet tool is required Tag can not be removed wita hout the tool
  3. Can be developed & produced quickly in Pakistan

 

ACTIVE TAG (BATTERY POWERED)

 

  1. ABattery life & Charge is a challenge
  2. GPS tracker & communication SIM card required so deployment is complex
  3. Can not be produced in Pakistan, need to be imported

Wristband RFID Tag:

  1. Wristband Tag
  2. Medical silicon material
  3. Passed FDA/RoHS testing
  4. Independent packaging after strict sterilization
  5. Disposable wristband
  6. BLE Enabled
  7. Cut-off alarm
  8. NFC Mobile Phone
  9. Cut-off alarm
  10. NFC Mobile Phone

NFC Mobile Phone:

  1. BLE-enabled mobile phone with application
gecolen-rfid-based-patient-location-7

A: RFID Tag Association:

 

  1. If health officials found anyone who traveled or came in contact with a Corona-positive patient then those are asked to quarantine.
  2. Such patient detail information will be captured on NFC-based application software like Name, Age, Address, Mobile No., Photograph, etc.
  3. The wristband will be fixed.
  4. Through NFC mobile application this wristband will be associated with quarantine patients.
  5. Quarantine patient addresses will be Geofenced through NFC mobile application.

B: Location Confirmation:

 

  1. All quarantine patients need to be traced periodically.
  2. The mobile application will capture BLE wristband data periodically with Geo location.
  3. If the quarantine address matches with marked Geofence then the system will confirm that the quarantined patient is at the place.
  4. Alerts will be triggered in case of:
  5. If Wrist band is going away from Mobile phones Bluetooth Range
  6. If Wrist Band is cut-off
  7. If the quarantine address NOT matches with marked Geofence then the system will give an alert to health officials.

SYSTEM BENEFITS

DASHBOARD:

It will be helpful for health officials to find whether all quarantine patients are at their quarantine address or not.

  1. Wristband with inbuilt battery with 6 months life
  2. Every single minute sends a signal to the mobile application
  3. Real-time information to identify Quarantine / Isolation patient location
  4. Real-time alert if Wrist band is cut-off or Geofence is not matched with Quarantine/ Isolated patient address
