Abstract
A system for tracking data relating to the processing of a plurality of medical containers adapted to be received in a first layer of a packaging, the system including: at least one mark being implemented on and/or within the material of each medical container and representing a corresponding unique device identifier (UDI) for each respective medical container, a remotely readable and writable electronic component (21) which is on and/or within the first layer of packaging, the remotely readable and writable electronic component being configured for storing the UDI of each medical container received in the first layer of packaging and for writing and/or reading data relating to the processing of the medical containers.
Claims18
A system for tracking data comprising:
- a plurality of medical containers received in a first layer of a packaging;
- at least one mark being implemented on and/or within a material of each medical container and representing a corresponding unique device identifier (UDI) for each respective medical container;
- a remotely readable and writable electronic component encased within the first layer of packaging such that the remotely readable and writable electronic component is isolated from an environment external to the first layer of packaging, the remotely readable and writable electronic component being configured for:
- storing the UDI of each medical container received in the first layer of packaging,
- writing data relating to the processing of the medical containers, and
- writing data relating to the processing of the first layer of packaging;
- and
- at least one sensor encased within the first layer of packaging, the at least one sensor configured to record physical data relating to the first layer of packaging and transfer the recorded physical data to the remotely readable and writable electronic component.
