Abstract
The today’s world and environment dictates the use of the new technologies and implementation of new solutions in every economic field. This trend is actively supported by the governments of many countries as well as by special projects of world organizations. The research represented in proposed article was aimed at finding solutions to improve the speed and quality of services in medical institutions. The analysis pointed to the weak side of the institutions under study, namely, the lack of time and funding for introducing costly and significantly new innovations, so it was decided to offer a solution that does not require large financial investments and is easy to use. RFID warehousing system was taken as an appropriate technology, which is widely used in warehousing in many economic fields. In this article, an appeal was made to previous studies of this area, and based on previous testing, the RFID laboratory system was taken as a ground. Such a system was earlier represented as promising due to successful detection of medicaments. Taking into account the multifaceted nature of the medical facility activities, the introduction of such a technology in accounting system of biological materials was proposed. There were proposed implementation ways of RFID system in a typical laboratory interior. Also, transporting packages of biological materials and conditions of this process were studied. The main criteria for transportation were identified, and it became clear that the RFID tags meet these criteria. Since the RFID system is sensitive to metal materials, cardboard and plastic transportation materials that are used most often were considered as strategic ones.
