Real-time monitoring of blood transportation temperature conditions based on Internet of Things technology / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To monitor the vehicle positioning and temperature of each shipping container during blood transportation by the Internet of Things technology, so as to ensure the blood products for clinical are always within the standard temperature range, and early detect and deal with the temperature runaway during transportation thus realizing the objective and traceable process of blood transportation temperature. 【Methods】 The temperature of each shipping container was collected in real time, and uploaded to the cloud server through the temperature information receiver. The temperature, vehicle positioning and early warning were displayed on the large screen and computer through the cold chain real-time monitoring system platform, and recorded in real time. 【Results】 The comparative validation test of data in 5 months since formal operation showed that the transportation temperature monitoring and recording of the system met the requirements, the handling of abnormal early warning (alarm) was convenient, and the vehicle positioning was accurate. 【Conclusion】 The system achieves real-time monitoring, accuracy and controllability of abnormal disposal, and ensures the blood quality. The blood products with RFID tags can be accurately monitored during transportation.
