CENTRAK STAFF BADGE – IT-743 (FCC*)
Today’s hospitals have a critical need to locate personnel throughout their facilities. They require a
reliable RTLS to optimize patient care and provide alerting capabilities to ensure the safety of its
personnel. CenTrak’s IT-743 staff badge was developed to meet this need. It was designed using
feedback from hospital personnel and includes several unique features that improve upon legacy
staff locating technology.
The CenTrak Staff Badge, or IT-743 Tag, can be mounted onto the loop used to hold a standard
hospital issued employee badge. The Staff Badge is designed to stay with the caregiver, thus
eliminating the need for separate processes that require daily tagging of personnel. The Staff Badge
is water resistant and can be easily cleaned. Each Staff Badge has three customizable buttons that
can be assigned based upon the RTLS use case.
About CenTrak DualTrak™ Technology
CenTrak’s core RTLS differs from legacy technologies in its combined use of a patented combination
of second-generation infrared (Gen2IR™) and active RFID technology called DualTrak. Battery
powered Monitors transmit a unique room number using Gen2IR which is received by any tag in that
room. The tag communicates the room number and its own unique ID via RF to the CenTrak
Location Server using a hospital’s existing wired or Wi-Fi network, where it can be accessed in real-
time by hospital personnel and integrated with third party solution providers.
Like light, Gen2IR will not pass through walls and does not suffer from traditional infrared line-of-
sight limitations. Therefore, when a tag reads a room number, there are no errors. This is certainty-
based RTLS. Unlike estimation-based information, certainty-based location data can be used by
hospitals to make important improvements to process flow and automate decision making. Most
healthcare workflow improvements can only be realized when the location data is certainty-based.
