RFID wristband and UHF RFID technology can help medical industry to become more intelligent. Compared with traditional medical wristbands or wristbands, UHF wristbands using RFID technology have outstanding performance in the application of patient file information management.
For the management system of hospital patients, medical wristbands/bracelets are one of the important carriers. In the past many years, hospitals usually used disposable printed paper bracelets with handwritten or printed barcodes to display patient names, admission time and other information. The doctor can check the patient by scanning the bar code or checking the information on the wristband when checking or infusing the patient.
Disadvantages of this traditional method: the wristbands that print barcodes must be aligned one by one before they can be scanned. Each patient scans one by one at a time, which greatly affects the efficiency of medical treatment. Handwritten wristbands can only be checked by people. The method takes longer and has a greater chance of making mistakes. It is impossible to completely avoid misunderstanding or misjudgment, which leads to medical accidents.
The survey results of the selection of medical wristbands in the past few years show that in the selection of medical wristbands, the proportion of handwritten wristbands (plastic) is 30.35%, which is much higher than other types of wristbands, thermal printing wristbands, Thermal transfer wristbands (ribbon required), handwriting wristbands (synthetic paper), RFID wristbands, ranked second to fifth. Except for thermal printing wristbands, the selection ratio of other types of wristbands is less than 15%.
With the continuous advancement of medical reforms in recent years, people’s requirements for medical efficiency and medical service quality have continued to increase. More and more hospitals have gradually adopted more intelligent medical management systems in order to improve the quality of medical services.
The application of RFID technology, especially the excellent performance of UHF RFID technology long-distance reading and group reading. For example, UHF PCB tags can be effectively used in the management of hospital equipment, equipment, and tools, and UHF RFID wrist tags are better to assist in the management of file information, treatment, etc. of the patient.
Today we mainly discuss the advantages and disadvantages of UHF RFID wristbands and traditional paper medical wristbands, and promote RFID medical wristbands from the perspective of stronger development.

UHF RFID labels are greatly interfered by the human body. For the wristband worn on the human wrist, the RFIDSilicone wristbands can stay far away under the environment of human the stability of distance recognition, specially designed material and appearance, durable and comfortable to wear.
With the gradual popularization of UHF RFID technology, the cost of RFID wristbands has also dropped significantly. In addition to its characteristics that it can be reused for many years, the cost of operation per unit time has been lower, and many hospitals have begun to gradually adopt UHF RFID technology bracelet and systems. Replace the original paper or barcode system. It is hoped that the wide application of RFID technology will bring more convenience and convenience to people's lives.
