TIMERTAG Reusable

Glance to understand - Save time, enable patients to engage in their care and reduce the risk of healthcare related infections. Making nursing easier for hospitals where patients have indwelling devices that require periodic review of ongoing need. In high-paced hospital environments infection control and compliance of indwelling devices can sometimes be forgotten in preference of higher priority and urgent tasks. Simple, safe, re-usable and well-integrated into existing processes - the Timertag simply ‘blinks red’ at the end of the countdown indicating the patient needs indwelling device review.

Simply Reusable.

Place at the bedside - magnetic or adhesive. Press and hold to start. Press and hold to stop. Write on Timertag with dry-erase marker pens if desired. Timertag simply ‘blinks’ when it’s time for patient indwelling device review (8H, 24H AND 72H alerts). Designed for simplicity & re-usability - Excellent results compared to existing disposable solutions - Better for patients, reducing healthcare provider expenses and contributing to the reduction of medical waste generated. Service life of 6-months for 8H Timertag + 12-months for 24H & 72H Timertags.

Needed Solution.

TIMERTAG was founded in 2013 when a need was recognised for an alert to remind nurses to review peripheral intravenous catheters to prevent bloodstream infections. Off-the-shelf solutions didn’t exist and a strategic initiative to develop a solution began. The TIMERTAG product family solution is a collaboration of: TIMERTAG, Design + Industry (ISO 13485:2016) and LX Design House. TIMERTAG was awarded Gold in the Sydney Design Awards 2019 in the Product Design - Medical category and Silver in the New York Design Awards 2019.
