Infant Protection and Baby Matching for Hospitals - CenTrak

In busy hospital environments, human errors and security threats can pose risks to newborn safety. Traditional infant security relies on manual checks, leaving gaps in protection that can lead to misidentification or unauthorized movement. CenTrak’s newbaby™ Infant Protection System eliminates these risks by providing real-time location tracking, automated security measures, and instant alerts.

Each newborn is assigned a comfortable, tamper-detecting security band that continuously updates location data in real-time. If an infant is moved to an unauthorized location, attempts to leave the hospital, or is mismatched with the wrong parent, the system triggers immediate alerts, activates lockdowns, and disables elevators.

Key features include:

• Real-time infant tracking – Live floorplan displays provide room-, sub-room-, and bay-level visibility.
• Tamper detection & automated security – Alerts notify staff if a band is cut, removed, or if an infant approaches an exit.
• Mother-baby matching – Ensures correct infant identification and notifies staff of mismatches.
• Customizable alarm workflows – Adjust alerts, escalation paths, and security measures to fit facility needs.
• Joint Commission compliance – Automated audit logs track all events, providing documentation for regulatory compliance.
• Scalable hospital-wide solution – Easily expand the platform to include staff safety, asset tracking, temperature monitoring, and more.

Using Second Generation Infrared (Gen2IR) technology with radio frequency communication, CenTrak’s system ensures reliable, accurate infant location tracking without line-of-sight limitations. This enhances emergency response times, streamlines workflows, and improves overall hospital security and efficiency.
